Hi Bryan, Yeah, I am rather excited to see STFC 2 as well. Not only because STFC 1 is buggy, but I really like the new real time strategy elements STFC 2 will provide. For example, in STFC 1 if an enemy invasion force blows up a starbase you can't rebuild it. In STFC 2 assuming you defeat or stop the advancing enemy fleet you can construct a new starbase, and put patrol ships around it to make sure that next time that boarder won't be crossed without a fight. Another great thing about real time strategy is you don't have to constantly monitor everywhere at once. You can place A.I. commanded ships in a sector of space you want to maintain a constant patrol, and you will get alerted when the fleet is in danger. They will either handle it themselves or request backup which you will personally reasign to reinforce the stationed fleet under attack. Other cool ideas for a real time strategy game is save money by building mine fields near a neutral zone so that any fleet that happens to wander over the neutral zone will hit those mine fields and get destroyed or damaged.
