Wat informatie over de Game:
Star Command is a science fiction war game where thousands of worlds and hundreds of galaxies fight for the domination of the universe or merely survival. Star Command is played through a html interface, and does not require any kind of download or installation of any kind of software. Every player in Star Command controls his own planet, develops technology, constructs fast fleets to attack other planets with. Resources are mined from asteroids orbiting around your planet, so each asteroid you steal from your enemy will allow you to increase your fleet even more, likewise losing asteroids will make it harder to refill your flanks. Beware of having too many asteroids and too few ships, space is cold and even your own brother can turn against you in the battle that is Star Command........
Luckily, you are not along in your galaxy, as many as 20 people belong in each galaxy. You have a galactic Affairs board, and in-galaxy cooperation is vital to survival. Different galaxies with other galaxies and some galaxies team up with others against other common enemies. Some large alliances span 100s of planets, the biggest has had over 1000 at their prime. You should expect that a few alliances rise above the rest of the alliances, ruling with terror and ruthlessness. Alliance wars and pacts are not uncommon; in fact, they are the norm and are critical to stay ahead of the rest and to stay ahead in the politics struggles for galactic supremacy that are Star Command.
As with all other games, the more you put into it, the more rewarding it is to play it. Star command has a very active community, and since they all play alongside you, having friends or being in a powerful alliance can mean getting defense, many players spend more time with friends on IRC or the forums that they do issuing orders to their fleets in game. Be wary of spies and treacherous individuals, not everyone shares your moral code.
About once per hour the clock of Star Command strikes, the universe "ticks". New resources are gained, work on constructions or fleets progress, battles are performed, new ships are built. This might sound like pretty standard stuff, but remember, the twist is that Star Command plays even though you're not logged on. Battles are fought, roids are stolen. Many ruler has woken up to realize that his 9 hour nap also included 200.000 ships attacking his planet and stealing a substantial amount of roids. If you're lucky to have a galaxy of active people, they might send defense to save you, if it serves their interest, and the number of attackers aren't too high.
Star Command is played in rounds, which last for 3-4 months, and has several hundred ticks, after each round the universe is reborn, and everyone starts afresh, eager to make up for past mistakes, forge new allies and make new friends in what is without a doubt the best online strategy game in all of the known universe.
Bedoeling van het Spel:
Het gaat erom dat jij samen met mensen in je galaxy je zo krachtig mogelijk maakt door middel van ontwikkelen van technieken die het mogelijk maken om bijvoorbeeld betere wapens en aanvals schepen te kunnen kopen.

Ik zou graag een leuke discussie op gang brengen over wat jullie van die soort games denken. Het is helemaal gebaseerd op een website dus geen fancy graphics en geluiden, het gaat allemaal om strategy. Het is het beste te vergelijken met Planetarion waar je tot mijn spijt voor moest gaan betalen. Dit is geheel gratis. Misschien een leuk idee als er genoeg mensen willen een eigen GoT Galaxy te beginnen ?
