it's a space empire building game, somewhat reminiscent of MOO2. I picked up a strategy guide at a thift store, then downloaded the game from underdogs.
Underdogs have it among their post patch classics, as it supposedly had brain dead AI when first released, but that was fixed in a patch.
I've been playing it a lot, alternating between it and Stars!, and it's a lot of fun. In my first game, some species declared war on me, then showed up a few turns later with 3 well armed ships that quickly trounced my defense ships and planetary defenses and took over my 3 largest planets. I was left with only 2 fledgling colonies on dinky worlds. I decided to start over.
now on my second game, doing much better. got 4 star systems colonized and expanding like mad. haven't met the others as yet.
so, anyone else try this game yet?
