It is worth every cent I paid for it. Game concept: The Heirachy is trying to gain control of the universe. The Alliance must defend the Universe from Hierarchy aggression. Arcade action: Blast the other guy into space dust using any of fourteen different ships(seven for each side). Strategic planning: Colonize, fortify, and mine worlds to ultimately gain control of the universe. Overall gameplay: excellent. Technical aspects: Graphics are good. Sounds are great. (DOGI's bark and whine). HD installable. Code-Wheel copy protection. requires one meg. will work on A3000. does not multitask. Siskel and Ebert give two thumbs up. Bobby Huang
