^$19^.99 When the stardust settles only those with the might, intelligence,  and foresight to rule the stars will remain.  Self-preservation: the one universal constant.  Predators evolving to hunt prey:  prey evolving to elude them.  Packs for parties; armies for cities; nations for  territories; empires for worlds.  Will you be prey for the other Empires or will you  hunt, survive, and flourish? As Authentic as it Gets.  Detailed solar systems with unique planets that orbit stars, asteroid belts, and moons.  Binary star systems, unstable stars, asteroid systems,  and the remnants of fallen empires await in galaxies as immense as you wish: from  1 solar system to beyond 10,000. Your ships, your rules, your empire.  Assemble your ships from crew quarters to  emergency power systems, craft their AI, and build massive fleets to crush your  enemies.  A fully implemented directional damage system, advanced enemy AI,  and newtonian physics will test your strategic foresight and tactical skill.  Shake the heavens.  Unlock the secrets of Ringworld construction and Planetary  thrusters, build ships that dwarf planets, and destroy planets, stars, and even the  galaxy itself.  Unlimited possibilities.  Discover weapons that offer new angles of attack: drain  power, impart force, attack crews, and more.  Board enemy ships to learn their  secrets and add them to your arsenal.  Turn shields into offensive weaponry or  deliberately sabotage your anti-matter reactors to turn your ships into deadly  bombs.
