Dark Reign Description:
In the 27th century water is more precious than gold. The Imperium, with sole control of this scarce resource, commands the fate of a thousand worlds. For generations, the Freedom Guard has pioneered the galaxy for the human race, colonizing planet after planet in exchange for an autonomy the Imperium promised but never granted. Now a civil war rages across the galaxy. The Freedom Guard, out-manned and out-gunned, tries desperately to break the Imperium's grip on the water supply. The Imperium meanwhile has developed a devastating new weapon, a chemical compound that when triggered consumes the water of an entire world in seconds, killing every living thing in its wake.
Even in the future, war is fought over basic values. One side fights to avoid chaos and preserve order. The other side fights for freedom and equality. Neither one is willing to back down. Play as the mighty Imperium, armed with the best units and weapons known to man. Or, play as the rebellious Freedom Guard, using cunning and guile as two of your primary weapons.
Dark Reign features player-controllable unit AI, sophisticated unit movement, true line-of-sight, realistically-modeled battleground terrain, the ability to command over 35 unique combat units, and more.
