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.

Uber Entertainment have started a Kickstarter Project for their latest game - an RTS following in the steps of Total Annihilation/Supreme Commander but on a larger scale.
I know that this is a Space Simulation forum. However I think that it fits into the science fiction / Awesome genre.

They Have plans to have the game be modifiable. However I am not sure if this is a stretch goal or not.

Planets, moons, robots, combat... think this game belongs here. And what a concept. This game looks epic if they can pull it off. It would be really cool if we could create take an asteroid and use it as a bomb <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//diablo.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':devil:' />
Certainly Darkone, GOD's own hammer! <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//girl_devil.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':girldevil:' /> I used to do this very thing in an old Amiga game called K240. TA was a very intense game as were its follow ups in the shape of the Supreme Commander series. I hope the dev team make their kickstart target.
looks rather like that funny old dos game "Z" - also seems to be about the same small scale
try totalannihilation - make a maximum size pure metal map (its a scale that takes almost a minute fast scrolling from one side to the other)- get tausp (or similar mod package) and that hacked 5000 unit limit .exe file
and you will find out that after 30 minutes you will launche nukes the whole time just to put a dent into the evil assaulting ai.
at least this game seems to be a nice starter game for kids <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_e_biggrin.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />
Here is a link to tausp 2.3 <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//wink3.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> http://www.ausgamers.com/files/details/html/31427
This kickstarter is really doing well and looks like it will meet all the stretch goals as well. With 16hrs left I wonder if it will make 2.1mil? And wonder if they will add something else to the game if it makes it above that. I will probably get this game now that Galactic War is going to be in there.
Available on steam (early access) : http://store.steampowered.com/app/233250/
