Hey!
I got a craving for some Supreme Ruler again, though one problem, I'm a Linux user now days. So I installed Wine and PlayOnLinux, installed windows version of steam. Finally downloaded the game. The game runs fairly well on Linux 'out of the box'-ish and I wanted to say Kudos to the devs for that!

Re: SRU under Linux
I tested the multiplayer last time in SR2020 when it didn't work. Both Wine and SR has come a long way since then. Single player is for me personally almost on par with Windows, though with a clock lag, meaning it jumps forwards instead of going smootly, with the overall speed being good and UI responisve. Everything else within single player seems to work, haven't gotten any crashes or graphics glitches. I tested sr2020 once on my then mini laptop under wine + linux where it actually had performed better than on it's windows os (forum thread probably somewhere in the archives).
For example while testing SR2020 back in the day I had to tweak the some graphics settings in wine etc. where as now it worked out of the box. Needs to be tested my imo
