Starting over.

Maintenance free, Biocrystal armored, talisman powered, temporal shielded, hero-haunted living ships with gravitic drives?

All for the low low price of everything in your wallet!
Ah, good times

It's unfortunate that the quirks of the map lead to an over-sized Vorlon empire with a ton of space to itself.. Those pesky SJ nomadic ships just couldn't eat up any space from colonization to stem the tide.

IIRC, that "empty Vorlon space" didn't START OUT so empty...

How coincidental. I also decided to start playing SE4 again, I remember these forums well from the earlier days. I also bought SEV and have kind of mixed feelings. I think I'll try it out, especially with Balance and Gritty Econ and see if I can get some of whatever skills I once had back. Nice to see SJ and the rest of you are all still here.

Best part: I still have my cool icon!

And you know the best part? Check out my signature. That was from the first PBC game, and of course the site has changed since. I was some minister? Construction? I don't recall. I had dreams of grandeur and then life happened.

We currently have a PBC game (PBC IV) going on at spaceempires.net, which is always looking for new players.

I just ordered Sins of a Solar Empire, but also found out it didn't have customizable ships. Hence, poked my head in here to find that I haven't played since v1.91!

I'd have to start studying all the files again just to figure out how to combine my favorite mods into one big monster mod that might actually work. *sigh* Maybe I'll wait a few more patches...SEIV still being supported and patched?

It's nice to see it's still active around here, Shrapnel's great to have hosted it even after it left their purview!

SE4 is done, no more patches.

Although there is the windowed SE4 tool to give the UI a bit of a boost.

Dumbluck:
There was only one small empire to the north, which decided to act in a rather hostile manner to peaceful Vorlon exploration ships. Naturally, they had to be dealt with... But the space to the south and east, inside that big cut-off loop, was mostly empty. All that was there was some piddly nomad race.
