Yep I sure do. Doesn't play well with XP though. Was hoping Conquest 2 woud be out now but I think there is a funding issue.

I was one of the beta testers for conquest - and COnquest is one of my favorite space rts games around.

I actually just reinstalled it a bit ago.

I have only ever played it on XP, didn't have any problems.

I have bought the game a few years a go. It's quite a decent game actually. I like the story and gameplay. especially the logistics system is neatly done. Perhaps Stardock can borrow some of the game concepts for Galciv 3 or an extension to galciv2, who knows?

Are there any patches available to Conquest? Is there an active community playing multiplayer games?

Oh man I love that game. It had something that made it fun, I think it was ability of multiple ppl controling one side. I remember a game where 3 ppl controlled one side vs 2 ppl on another. Our side (3ppl) totally dominated the enemy. Poor bastards got boxed into 2 systems LOL and we had 11!!!

The idea of having AI Fleet Admiral is quite.. cool..

The developpers could develop "tactical" AI, to automaticly control ships in battle and on the map.

It would make the AIs multi-layer intelligence. One would produce the ships and run the civ, the other would run the ships. But players won'T have total control over their fleets too. It would negate the "tactical" advantage of any human players to the game.
