Ok, if you aren’t sure what this is about, I suggest you take a look here:

which is the current place-holder minimalist website for our next game, called ‘Gratuitous Space Battles’. Feel free to post on any topic relating to the game here.
Some teaser images:

Is this basically like Master of Orion 2 but without the fail that is Master of Orion 3? I still play Master of Orion 2 occasionally with a DOS emulator as it has all the good stuff in it I like. Stardock did make Galciv and it was okay but it missed the various elements of MOO2 and so I felt distanced from the game instead of in it.
There’s also lots of fans who still play MOO2 if you search on the internet.
I also think the working title “Gratuitous Space Battles” needs revising as it sounds corny.
I hope the name stays; from a marketing point-of-view it’s exactly what it says on the box, and my mates, the immature money-laden adults that they are, are quite interested in the game if nothing more than for the name. Also, battles, arranged in a gratuitous fashion, in SPACE!
Wayno, goes all giggly
The name is definitely final. It does what it says on the tin
As you say, it does exactly what it says on the box. Also it’s an indication that the game isn’t to be taken too seriously (in a good way, obviously).
I’ve played a few games on it and I have to say it’s already one of the most enjoyable games I own!
I wore a stupid grin prettymuch from when I started playing to when I had to finish to go back to real life!
Cool game. A fan of Wicked Defense by Ixchel, and space epics like Sins, GalCiv, X etc. Like the idea of combining the two concepts. The name is what attracted me to it, FYI. I just brought the beta. Hope the final version is available soon.
