Distant Worlds: Shadows

Distant Worlds is a vast, pausable real-time, 4X space strategy game which models a "living galaxy" with incredible options for replayability and customizability. Experience the full depth and detail of large turn-based strategy games, but with the simplicity and ease of real-time, and on the scale of a massively-multiplayer online game. Now greatly enhanced with the new Universe release, which includes all four previous releases as well as the new Universe expansion!

I don't suppose there's any kind of word on whether there will be a sale to celebrate this expansion's release? Would really love to try this game out but the current price point is a little outside the range I'm comfortable with

It has been said that there will be a release sale once the expansion is out. Which is supposed to be the 21st (if I remember correctly).

Hello last week.

Maybe this extra week has meant they've been able to redo the ugly backdrop on the ground combat resolution screen?

With all the talk about Pirates lately, I know some of you who prefer planetary empires will also appreciate this new galaxy setup option.

When you first install Shadows, this is where I recommend you begin. The new gameplay in the Age of Shadows is very different from the classic age and these new tutorials will help you understand how to survive and thrive.
