    Man o man, is this a beauty. Just got the demo and it is incredible.

    What a month November is going to be for Space RTS and Space strategy fans!!!!

    Just look at the lineup for Novemeber with the likes of...

    Hegemonia
    Imperium Galactica III
    Master of Orion 3

    and my favourite...

    Star Trek: StarFleet Command 3 w00t!, wow... just wow.



    and soon also rumoured is the up and coming grand daddy of the space rts genre.... Homeworld 2 http://homeworld2.sierra.com/


    Anyway dont forget to check out the Hegemonia playable demo, your gfx card will thank you for it later.

    ***!!!!!!!!!!111//1//1/1/!!

    I said Space RTS! gawdammit! I guess there is no hope left in the world.

    ::slowly creeps away::

    BTW Zool, there was a special done in a PC mag I read the other day. The gfx look su-weeet!!! It was titled "Orange, the new black for Space RTS" It was a satirical look at Homeworld 2's extensive use of nebula as a backdrop instead of the ominous black expanses we Space rts gamers are so familiar with.

    Oh and I just finished the Hegemonia demo, I cant wait until the commercial release is out, w007!!!11//1/1

    How about PlanetSide? That is close enough...MMOFPS but takes place in different worlds and you can fly aircraft.

    Well, MOO3 isn't exactly an RTS per se if you classify it, but it will have real-time elements from what I've read. Anyways, who cares, one can classify it whatever and I'll still be drooling for it to be released!

    You think MOO3 will be released this month? They just started the beta test a few weeks ago.
