    It just vanished. Is it down for repair or is it gone for good?

                They could have at least made a redirect or "the site has moved to a new location" sign.

                  Exactly. You would have thought they'd have put a notice of the change on their website before they actually made the move. . .

                  Besides EB, underdogs is my best source for games

                    I think the guy who owns it had a little memory lapse

                    ... apparently theunderdogs.org did expire under my old (now-defunct) e-mail, and was snapped up by a cybersquatter called ultsearch.com who apparently does nothing worthwhile except redirect URLs to their dodgy search engine :/

                      It's the little things that can hurt the most.

                        Speaking of the underdogs, what are the best games you have played from that site and would recommend others to play?

                        My recommendations are:

                        1) Imperialism II

                        2) Macheavelli the Prince

                        3) Shadow President

                        4) Hoplites

                        5) Carrier Strike

                            I never got the hang of Imperialism II. It was too much of a New World rush and then the great industry system of Imperialism becomes a highyl confusing system in Imperialism II. The important thing is to keep food coming in and keep building more ships, IIRC.

                              Sadly, my graphics card doesn't have a pure VGA mode, so I can't play Macchiavelli
