Many excellent suggestions here. Those mentioning MOO2 have spurred me to mention my wish for a proper sequel to Birth of the Federation. Give it a more robust AI, a somewhat more sophisticated diplomatic system, a larger/more epic scale (the largest maps in BOTF only have around 75 stars), upgraded visuals, and have it be released relatively bug-free this time around.....most BOTF players would be *quite* content.

As for those who wish to see Master of Magic resurrected, I would direct you to Zenicetus' comment: Brad Wardell has said Stardock's upcoming fantasy strategy title is at least partially intended as a spiritual sequel to MOM, if not in name. (They actually did try to acquire the rights for MOM a couple years ago, but apparently Atari's lawyers deep-sixed the whole thing. ) The official announcement is supposedly coming tomorrow, so we'll hopefully see then what we're in for.

Yeah, I unfortunately doubt it will ever happen too, but it *is* a nice thought, isn't it?
