Galactica: Anno Dominari 3.0.2
Gameplay in Galactica is a matter of building starships, and of using those ships to colonize the galaxy, protect your territory, and defeat the other players in combat. Your level of technology is crucial. Higher levels of technology allow your ships to move faster and give them an advantage in combat over ships with lower technology levels. Your star systems also defend themselves from attacking ships based on their level of technology.
Version 3.0.2:
Fog Of War: All new - Opponent's ships, systems, and all information associated with those are now hidden from view. Each system and scout has a detection circumference. Ships are only detected when inside this area. As tech increases so does this area of detection. Three levels of detection aid in uncovering enemy strengths and weaknesses. Movement is never revealed.
Matchmaker: New and improved - Hosts are now listed with our matchmaking server which allows your friends to easily find you on the net.
UI enhancements - Support right click, make ships and systems lists sortable, better window resizing and positioning. Preference window allows for customization of your game window and set default features for system colonization.
New Scout AI - Scouts/Couriers have more of a reconnaissance role than in previous versions. While they remain virtually undetectable their speed and ability to scan enemy fleets and systems provide you with a network of eyes away from your home system
Built-in mechanism to find multiplayer games on the internet.

| OK, so it doesn't have graphics to speak of, and does indeed look like a radar screen, so what? This game reminds me of that old game Spaceward Ho!, but much more updated, and way more fun to play. |

| This game is a classic, and damn good one at that. Sacrifices graphics for quality with good results, and the update is a nice addition. The thinking mans space conquest game...at least, if you have a certain amount of OCD towards micromanagement. |

| Intergalactic Air-Traffic Controller. Thats "Galactica" in a nutshell. It has a nostagic old skool feel to it... seems more like something you'd have played on an LC under system 7.1. If that kind of retro attitude appeals to you then give it a shot. Maybe if you like it you'll find it to be worth the price, which I find quite absurd for a game that looks 12 years old... Either way, I recommend tacticians and old skool gamers try it out. Everyone else will be almost instantly bored. |

| It's not much to look at. In fact, it kind of reminded me of an air traffic control simulation, except that you actually want the little moving triangles to crash into each other. Once you get over that, though, it's fairly fun. |
