"It's not speed that kills - it's the sudden railgun impact at the bottom that gets ya." Space combat is "fly by" newtonian combat, with relative velocities taken into account, and weapon ranges based on whether the other ships can dodge or intercept at that distance. Distances are measured in light milliseconds, hundreds of miles, and combat will be over in seconds. Your captains and crews do the fighting for you, but you must make key decisions before combat starts.

GROUND POUND

Ground combat on traditional hex grids requires cunning when planning maneuvers and attacking.

• Nearly twenty different units per faction
• Heavy tanks just won't work on Europa; army composition matters
• Flanking, terrain, damage types - every choice in battle matters
• Units grant customizable bonuses to allies as they level up during combat
• Emergent AI and terrain generation ensure combat is always fresh
• Unleash powerful orbital strikes during combat (if you have ships upstairs!)

Even the clouds of the gas giants play host to war

THE FACTIONS

(these particular aliens have not had a flag since before humans fell out of Eden)

• The Martian Commonwealth, or more accurately, the MCVCM - their military. A laser focus on AI and genetic engineering has given Mars a definite technologic edge over Earth. "It means 'Martial Commonwealth Volume Control Military,' and I unabashedly made the acronym first and decided what it stood for second."
• The United Nations Solar Expeditionary Force, or UN-SOLEXFOR. Earth's people are fractured and the planet is sick, but ten thousand years of warrior culture are not so easily ignored. "It doesn't hurt that there are thirteen billion of them either, and the corporate council has a lot of money."
• A strange alien presence, calling themselves the "Haptha Garden Song," have appeared out in the farthest reaches past Neptune - their spores flung across the stars, what do they want? Find out when their campaign releases!

THE MUSIC

Call me biased, but I think my composer did an absolutely stupendous job. His name is Pietro Frigerio . The soundtrack is awesome, give it a listen and support independent music creators when you get a chance!
