The Bottom Line:
"Revolutionary"
I loved this game. I always picked the race of men to be in the game. I hated the red headed religious lady and the nature Gai people. It was my first experience though with strategy based games. I loved positioning military vehicles on the edges and then catching the enemies infultrate with there probes and stuff. It was so very much fun after having been infultrated by a certain race and having had sabotage to my refineries and such AND then getting ultimatum's by that same race. I lived for that part of it plus gaining the nukes and blowing them off the map. That was great gaming. I loved how those same races who had given the ultimatums would then give stronger ones after being hit with a nuke so I would just nuke them again. Best of all would be when they started to beg me not to totally anhilate the race and guess what I did. I totally wiped them off the map for good. That was great gaming. Even though it was turn based, the game did not take too long on an old computer. Because of the trouble makers and the nukes, this game is a 9.5. Cool out man. Cool out.
