This is an RTS, but with a unique approach, it's kinda hard to explain, but it's great. I actually took over the galaxy with ONE ground battle and 2 space battles against a hard enemy. just make sure you know how to spy on your enemy and steal credits. It definitely does involve some thought, and I can't wait to see how this works online, this is a must-buy for me.

Im going to dl it tomorrow morning. How long was the dl and how was it?

i like it. here is some advice, DO THE TUTORIAL. It is not like any other RTS i have played.

[JackelMaster]

okay I played it. It was pretty good I like the strat around it.

This is very interesting, it takes FOR FUCKING EVER to build a small squad of anti-tank.. tanks... So if you lose them, pay the resources and wait, whereas infantry are easy to maintain. There is one thing I like about this game, and I'll say it in a simple way..

"When in doubt, throw more men at it!"

Amass a fleet of 10 squads of plex soldiers and platoons, if you're a rebel anyway, and kick some ass, reinforce depending on the type of encounters you.. well.. Encounter. This is a game well worth the money, but in the first three days, there were three patches released, but now it's all good. If any of you have this game, lemme know, I need to kick someone's ass 1v1 galactic conquest.

its got nice aesthetics to it.. its a nice light show, but its just too limited to enjoy over extended period. I d/led the increase max pop patch, and that extended the life of it a bit, but the game is retired now.
