I was initially unimpressed with this game, but i still downloaded it as previews and reviews sung its praises. I love strategy games and had still yet to complete Supcom, WIC, CIV and COH. What really annoyed me about those other rts's was the amount of micro required, and whether it did or did not add something to the game. In Supcom you leave your troops alone and they will get annoyingly nibbled at by AI, same in COH. The AI in those games know and exploit just how far to stay&n

I actually welcome early pirate raids as it gives my capital crew experience and upgrades making me much more powerfull later on (provided i dont loose my capital ship).

My 1st game pirates raided me all the time. I just sent a few waves of light frigates at them with my Capital ship upgraded gauss rail gun & pwned them.

This game is an RTS because it fills all the criteria of an RTS. I remember reading a post on forums over at a hardcore RTS replay site where some of the highest ranking players clearly set out the criteria for an RTS, as allot of true RTS gamers felt they were duped by Wic which recieved (in most peoples opinion) an overated review score on most game review sites as it was advertised as an RTS. This was quite in depth so i wont go into it but involved having resources, managing an economy/base,

Downloaded it last night from UK after reading this thread. I havent downloaded a game before, but i found it easy and quick. Hell, i'd publish it for you if had the money and the contacts! Great game btw, a certain hit! Offers that step above your standard RTS and is a REAL innovation RTS unlike World in Conflict which is just posing as a RTS but is really an RTT.
