There is of course the freeorion project - freeorion.org for those interested open source version (very invovled many programmers) that are seeking a game similar to M003 built from scratch but much more balanced and without so many bugs - waiting for MOO4 which if made needs to be much more like the original - i still prefer space empires 4 (with hte 1.91 patch) and the now in development Space empires 5 due out next year with turn based strategy but with 3D real time battles. Its shaping up as a very good game.
