Armada 2526: Supernova – So Surprising – Let’s Play Entry 5

Fight. Fight. Fight.

Welcome back to Armada 2526 my friends! In this final entry, new races are stumbling over themselves to get technology from me and get into defensive treaties with me. I wasn’t gonna attack them anyway, but sure, I’ll take their moneys. The UNN Pirates attacked a new colony of mine though. I wish I knew where they were so I could kill ’em. Regardless, I had more fun with this than I expected. I theorize that it’s because the exploration and expansion portion of the game was still going, even hundreds of turns in. That’s my favorite part of a 4X game, and one reason I love Distant Worlds so much, so this works for me. Will it work for you? I think if you get it on sale, it will. Will I keep playing it. Unlikely, too many other games to play. It’s not BAD, mind you, it’s just not GREAT either. It’s competent and enjoyable and if that’s all you’re looking for, have at it! Thanks for watching!
