Anyone heard about "Lost Empire: Immortals", a TBS game coming out in march, read that you can play in their largest galaxy map containing 5000 star systems. There are six playable races (The humans as usual make their entrance) and a compliment of 27 minor races, the gameplay is the usual 'start with one planet and colonize the rest to build an empire', research and build a huge fleet to squash your opponents empire with. Check out the games website
WWW Link for more info.
I am curious to see what this game has to offer.
