I loved Alpha C (although it needed some gameplay refinements; an AC2 would be the bizomb). It was the fact that Sid Meier never bothered to make an Alien Crossfire patch to make it work with WinXP. Partially because they don’t make AlienC for Win anymore (why, I have no idea). But if he makes an AC2 with all 14 races and more stuff, I’ll forgive him.
Oh… I see.
Just another reason to stick with 98, I suppose.
