Description
You begin with a single ship, and a chosen crew. Numerous planets and options guarantee almost infinite replayability, and numerous ship designs and crew selection allow for different playing style. Research, exploration, and diplomacy, are essential elements for success. New Ships, new upgrades, and ancient artifacts will help you in your efforts. Combat will be both randomly thrust upon you, and planned for in your grand strategy. This great but sorely underrated space strategy game recalls the venerable classic Starflight series in its breath and scope, but is more focused on the strategic and tactical issues than that classic. A highly recommended game that is precursor to SimTex' Master of Orion in spirit if not in name. The fantasic music was composed by the well known computer musician Andrew Sega.
