Nothing technical, I haven't played it but I was just curious if there was any connection to the old multiplayer game by the same name back in the 90's?
I was bored at work, and did my yearly search for old Raider Wars information, and this has come up a bunch.

Curious. What's this "old" Raider Wars, hmm?

Edit: This, at least, is Babylon 5 related.

The old Raider Wars was a multiplayer space combat game.  The basic story was it took place in an asteroid belt, 3 corporations vied for control of. You chose one of 3 sides, and took over the ships surrounding the belt.  Multiple ship types, with different roles etc.  The game is from the late 90's, Interactive Magic made it , then sold it to AOL where it vanished.  It was a pretty early multiplayer game, and  a damn lot of fun. Watching the trailer  it has some similarities to certain aspects of the ancient game of the same name

But no Babylon 5? That's alright. Sounds interesting, though.

But now that you're here, I would recommend The Babylon Project and/or FreeSpace_Open. Both can be acquired and installed with relative ease and hot piss, they're pretty. And entertaining, hmm.
