I agree....I've been playing this game for the past week (and getting
darn little sleep ;) ).

I'm playing against the computer right now; the game moves pretty fast,
but after a certain point it seems like the computer opponents seem to
"lose interest" and thereafter it's kind of simple to win the game.  Of
course, I've only gone against 2 computer opponents in the "expert"
mode...

It would be a MUCH more exciting game to play against a human opponent.
Which brings up another question (one that I pretty much already know
the answer to):  Is there any way to play over the net?  The only way I
could conceive of is to do a move, then FTP the whole galaxy to an
opponent and let them do their move, then FTP it back; repeat above...

Is this possible, or feasible?  I'd be interested in trying...

Dave
