Armada 2526 Gold Edition

For space buffs and 4x game lovers, this one is a hidden gem. An older game that never really made it big, which is too bad. I keep a copy of this on my older systems and laptops as well because I can play it out and about without stressing the machine at all. One of those games you just have to have and play.

one of the best 4x strategy games ive ever played

ОБЗОР https://youtu.be/NMUiHPdxCNw это пошаговая стратегия 2013 года, на экране вы видите максимальную по размеру галактику, врагов хватает, ходы Здесь довольно быстры даже на поздних этапах игры, максимум 1 минута была во время войны, бои здесь реал тайм как можете увидеть на экране, графика и спецэффекты вполне нормальные, сама игра довольно интересная но содержит много микроменеджмента, и не имеет русского языка, планеты можно неплохо оборонить, дипломатия тоже имеется как и политика, различные виды кораблей, много исследований и их бесконечные вариации, неплохой ИИ противника правда я на самом сложном играл, да игра в целои хороша и поиграть в нее определенно стоит, и сразу скажу рабочий русификатор я так и не нашел. правда здесь и без него не слишком сложно разобратся.

sehr gutes Spiel! zudem funktioniert problemlos über LAN / Hamachi

This is a well designed game in league with games such as Master of Orion, and has an old school feel while being in the late 2009 era still looks good for its time. Also I have played for 40+ hrs and still going through a learning curve that is whole games worth of trying tactics and experimenting.

Old but gold

a well filled out game.

It's old but it's alright.

I've played a lot of 4X Space games over the years, and Armada 2526 is still one of my favorites. I even ended up purchasing it a second time on Steam when I couldn't find my original copy. $/hour it has been well worth the price and I'm happy to support the developers for bringing us games like this. - General: A typical game of 200 turns can be completed in an evening. This gives it accessibility and the ability to be played casually if desired. Tech: - The tech tree is deep and lets you specialize. Its really hard to get everything, especially in a 200 turn game so your specializations matter and need to support your race. Combat: - Auto combat does a decent job and works for many fights. - It is very hard to control everything in a large fight, but in some ways that is more realistic than having infinite control over combat. - You have to be careful with certain units and against certain units. Timing can be critical, and sending your ground forces in unsupported can be devastating. - Depending on the units/tech you have combat can have a lot of significant choices, thought there is not a lot of diversity to combat due to race. - Some combats get a long, and I wish there was a way to auto-resolve mid fight. The Fast forward and end combat buttons in combat are not great and make you wait way to long for resolution. - Some techs are really hard to fight (Sun Beams) forcing you to completely change tactics or give up attacking a specific planet all together. Races: - The races play differently. The win conditions of races are often very diverse, and mastering those differences is key. Some differences are subtle. Own race population vs total population translates to wipe out the planet and start over vs conquer. - Some races make you search the galaxy different planet types from everyone else lending to more diplomatic games. While others aggressively and take the fight to the enemy from almost the beginning of the game. - There is even a pirate race that is spot on. You can’t dig in and play them like any other race, but try swiftly conquering planets and selling them back to the highest bidder and you are on your way to victory. - Dealing with races opposed to you also adds variation to the game. Some races spread like crazy and need to be attacked before they gain too much reach. And sometimes the best way to out-score a race is not to fight them at all, but to make friends with them and sell them tech. Sorry for the long review, this is a great game with a lot of depth, that plays in an evening. Highly recommended!

dåligt.
