Had shit loads of fun with Masters of Orion 3 last night with bucket and lithius, slow game to start off and its a turn based 'CIV' style space game. Micromanagement is a key point in the game but features space battles in real time if wanted and diplomacy and ect ect also like Total War has.

Only problem I can say is sometimes you will get a direct x surface failure if you alt tab and you cant recover without resetting the game. Good news is when it happened to lithius last night in our multiplayer match he was able to rejoin after shutting the game down. Really wanting to have another go at the and conquering the galaxies.

their website isnt much to look at, i cant even find any pics of the game.

i'm also keen to have a Homeworld gaming night, just gotta see what Homeworld and how many people are keen.

I got homeworld 2 I think, need to check it all out

Im in for homeworld 2. Have to reinstall it though. Kickass game but im absolutely terrible at it.

good article on how to form a good empire (IMPORTANT FOR BUCKET) hahaha
