Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
I thought this game was a very good game based on what time it came out. It was a little rough around the edges on trying to figure out exactly how to make your weapons. That was pretty much the only thing that I saw that was troubling about it.

Classic underdog deserves praise, February 5, 2010
By Mark Twain "Sam" (Florida, MO USA) -
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent empire building and management game. There is also much dark sci-fi going on. The variety of customizable factions and units along with the inclusion of terraforming makes replay value high. Over the years I have played this for an embarrassing number of hours until I just can't play it anymore. Perhaps my highest praise is this: I wish I had never seen it so that I could start all over again. The only down side I can report is that late in the game, especially on large maps, there is considerable lag between turns. This is reduced with modern CPUs but not eliminated. The voice acting is superb and there was obviously a great deal of thought put into the tech tree. The graphics by today's standards are crude. Doesn't matter. Get it, enjoy the time to explore it, maybe find Vel's Strategy guide when you want to up your game.

An Ageless Classic, February 18, 2010
By Eric Lundberg -

Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
I've spent countless hours with this game over a period of many years and though technology has moved far beyond this aging classic it is still truly worth spending some time with. It was extremely well thought out and even though the development of each new game remains a bit redundant the challenge is renewed every new play with the variety of maps and factions. I'll probably still be bringing it out for a spin now and again in another 10 years. Enjoy!
