Armada 2526: Gold Edition

Conquer the galaxy in this "4x" strategy game. Lead one of 18 different alien races to become a powerful pan-galactic empire. Manage your colonies, deploy your fleets and conduct research. Plan your strategy and turn your planets into powerful bastions. Explore new star systems where you will encounter tachyon storms, psychic plants, primitives or abandoned alien technology. Diplomacy is of utmost importance to succeed. Make pacts and alliances, issue threats or ask for favors - and when the time is right, replace diplomacy with space battles and fight it out in real-time 3D. The trading system lets you exchange valuable goods between your own and alien worlds. Alien relics, rare minerals, tourists or even natural antimatter - your freighters will transport them all. Although the game is complex and the possible strategies are endless, powerful help and advice functions will help you quickly find your way around. Unlike many other games of this genre, Armada 2526 Gold Edition focuses on providing a game that can be finished in a reasonable amount of time, emphasizing combat and strategy instead of economic micromanagement. All with one objective: to emerge victorious and conquer the galaxy with your Armada.
