Heading to Washington University (St.Louis) in August, probably studying Mechanical Engineering.

Love 4x games, Civilization II and its spinoffs, realistic first-person shooters, and the Close Combat series. Been playing SE since Space Empires II.

Also heavily into Warhammer 40,000 (loyal and Chaos Marine armies) and getting back into Epic (Imperials and Orks).

Living in Hildesheim, Germany. Near Hannover.
Not married and no girl friend at this time (hope this changes tonight).

Hoping to study Artificial Intelligence next year at the University.

I love Turn-based Strategy and wargame simulations. Playing SE since SE3.

29, New Jersey, Married. Instructional Designer: I write install & user guides and put together training classes for a Payroll software company.

8 year USAF, Gulf War vet (did security and anti-terrorism). Got out, got married, slowed down... but totally rely on gaming for peace of mind. Have 3 core friends who have been enjoying SEIV PBEM since it rolled out.
Also love other (mostly strategy) computer, RPG, and board games, such as Axis and Allies, Risk, Panzer General series, MOO2, Close Combat series, Civilization series...

My beautiful wife is closing in on me with the "kid" thing, so I will be doomed here in the next couple of years. She insists that "I won't have time for all these silly games" when we have children... BUT she does not realize my EVIL plot to teach them SEIV and all the cool games I know ASAP!

27, New Jersey unmarried but girlfriend lives with me. I lived in the Netherlands for 8 years and am originally from the Dutch Caribbean. (anyone know Curacao?)

Came to the US to work as a consultant in Information Security, but recently got laid off

Anyone have a job for me ?

Am playing way too much SE4 now with all this free time on my hands...

Are there any other UK players here? I know there are a few German / Dutch / Scandinavians but am I the only person on this island playing SEIV?

30 and still getting acne. Mom said I would stop getting acne when I grew up. Therefore, I have not grown up.

Manage a staff of 110 local and expatriates, which gives me excellent training for SE4. Our organization takes 18, 000 African refugees a year and moves them to the US to start new lives. Living in Nairobi, Kenya is fun, but sometimes depressing. Main advantage of living in Kenya, I have a maid. Main disadvantage is the poor internet connections.

I have a wonderful girlfriend who doesn�t understand 4X; she wants to play Midtown Madness.

First space game was Gorf on the Vic20, later moved on to Empire, then Empire Deluxe, Pirates!, CIV I and MOO. In the Last year or so, Heroes of Might and Magic III has taken a lot of time from my life, then SE4 showed up.
