Reply To: The coolest game I’ve never played
Great post, Strategos Risk. I wasn’t aware of the similarities between AL and Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri.
AL also inspired me more that I first suspected. I constantly think about the premise. You have a mission and when you wake up from hibernation, you find out that another ship has been sent shortly afterwards and will arrive earlier because of to newer tech… but there is no other ship.
The lack of Centaurians really emphasises the desolation: You’re so far away that no one can reach you. Not even the enemy.
