Negative Positive
Title: half a review
Review: Ok so the game has not been released, however you can download a 60 turn demo from mindscapes website. It looks like this could be a nice game.The game takes much of the tedium of controlling a large empire away by pooling all resources, and allowing entire colony build profiles to be created with a single click. there appears to be a large tech list to research, and the presentation and interface a very polished.the downsides:the space battle look fairly simplistic, and uninvolved: you get to pick tactics - which seems to play like a more advanced paper, scissor, stones game. Its a shame they did not take the master of Orion route with combat. Also despite being able to design your own ships, it is hard to determine the affects of different configurations because you are so removed from the actionStill All said i am looking forward to seeing what it is like, and hope that some of these failing have been delt with for the release version.James Tory
