To Stardock: suggestions for acquiring gaming franchises

from GalCiv3 Forums

Someone pleaded for Imperium Galactic War but I got some other suggestions for franchises Stardock might have a look at for possible acquisition.

Probably a longshot, but if I don't say it, it'll keep gnawing at me.

1) Imperium Galactica
This would make a great real-time counterpart for Galactic Civilizations.
(If you (Stardock) want to have a look, but can't find a copy, I've got an extra one plus a disc with all updates)

2) Fallen Haven
Turn-based game where you have to conquer regions of a map (of a distant world) and fortify them. A lot like the game 'Z' but a lot better looking.

Brad doesn't need to acquire other game franchises.  He's too busy founding whole new game studios every time he gets bored.

Which makes me even more jealous of Brad's life.  I want to have millions of dollars that I can use to found new game studios.  I want to be like "Hey, I'm working on a strategy game, so lets call in some famous strategy game designers to help out, yea, get Soren Johnson and Jon Shafer in a meeting and throw wads of cash at them until they come help me at my game.  And if they do a good job, lets help them create their own game studio.  Oh, and I feel like honey so I'm going to raise some mother fucking bees."  That sounds pretty sweet, although the Lord Xia version might be a bit different.

"Fuck honey, I like cheeseburgers so I am raising some mother fucking Cattle, I'm raising my own beef for Kobe burgers.  God damn these burgers are good, lets make a game about these great burgers!  Yes, god damn it, I want a game made about these delicious ass Kobe burgers I make.  What's Brian Reynolds doing?  Give him a few million and his own studio and make me a god damn game about my Kobe burger!"

It's gotta be more than money, though. Kingdoms of Amalur...anyone?

Brad and Notch need to get into a war and try to one-up each combo in starting up strategy game franchises/studios.

Deadlock II: Shrine Wars (don't know about #1) falls into the same category as Civilization and Alpha Centauri but is probably cheaper to acquire.
