Default Re: OT: Any idea where I can find Stars! resources

My first was probably an oldie called Empire, back when I got my first computer, a 286 with a CGA monitor, shortly after I got married. After that, I think, was the original Reach for the Stars.

Wonderful memories!

Getting back to Stars!, I spent countless hours with that game. Wow--I could conquer the galaxy! All that great gameplay on a 3.5'' gloppy disk! I think I remember there being an email mailing list for Stars! players. Strategy endlessly debated, potential improvements discussed, etc.

There was eventually a Stars Supernova website that I used to post on from work. With screen shots, features described, etc. We were so passionate about having the game see the light of day! But the developer--it was a 1 or 2 man operation--was not able to find a publisher, so the story went. So the game died.
