If only the command was smart enough to use that many ships.

Post by: starlord on February 04, 2008, 07:06:15 am: This reminds me of a nice (very rare) little space sim called "halcyon sun".

Eridani admiral: there is no more eridani alliance, pilot: the raleh engulfed us: they didn't care how many ships we destroyed, there were so much of them the center of their fleet went critical. They didn't even mind. ;7

On a side note, sorry to burst your bubble, but you won't be seeing this in the game (although it remains quite nice, but good luck in finding it though). I saw one (1) copy at amazon.com. Hurry up and get it.

I'm surprised that command had as many ships as if did... :doubt:

Post by: starlord on February 11, 2008, 03:24:19 am: It's really not recommended these days to buy halcyon sun online: I did so and I had a false activation code (didn't work), then the game itself wasn't downloadable anymore. I simply recommend you stick to the good old tried and true physical game: buy the CD. Unfortunately, it can be quite hard to come by.
