I've not recieved a serial number yet, I pre-ordered the CDROM version... And even though I can't play it till Tuesday... I want it now!!! Thanks
It does mention this: The Drengin had, by far, the largest military in that part of the galaxy (little at this point is known about the rest of the galaxy). So hopefully the story could expand into more of the galaxy, perhaps with new races?
