To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Don't think this one been mentioned before, itâ€™s a turn-based strategy game set on the moon http://www.moonrisingthegame.com/

From the site

You begin with a Headquarters capable of producing various units from Astronauts to Terraformers. With these you must capture more buildings and outwit your opponent through a number of game types. Besides the Headquarters, there are two types of building in Moon Rising - Solar Station and the Refinery.

Capturing Solar Stations will give you more power, enabling you to move your units further each turn. The Refinery generates more income with which to produce the aforementioned units. Simple.

6 unique units

Astronaut | Rover | Supply Truck | Attacker | Mobile Launcher | Terraformer

3 building types

Headquarters | Solar Station | Refinery

3 exciting game modes

Radar | Transmission | Payload

One of the biggest changes we have made recently is the ability to transport your units between buildings at a moderate cost in power. This has had a profound impact on the game, increasing the pace and placing even more strategic importance on the buildings you capture.

Single Player

Yes, there is a full, single-player campaign. But not only that, there is also a Skirmish mode where you can play games against human or AI opponents on a multi-player map of your choosing.

Multiplayer (cross-platform, don't you know?)

We have spent a great deal of time in perfecting the Multiplayer aspect of the game. Currently, the Multiplayer lobby is where you'll create and discover new games. It's fully asynchronous and cross-platform, which means that you can take a turn, go and make a cup of tea (or even go on holiday) while your opponent takes his or her turn.

There are 2, 3 and 4 player maps to play and we are currently implementing a permanent ranking system which will gain (or lose) you points each time you complete a map against human opponents.
