But there is no game forum or reviews or screenshots anywhere. It's almost like the moderator is determined to scare away curious observers.
Looks like it was based off an earlier PBM game called Galactic Conquest. Anyone ever play that?
There is no game forum. Because I share a forum with ADB at the SFU Discussion Board.
When it comes to reviews, I am not sure where you can visit to see a review of the game. It is not it is Warcraft. And the question, how much can you trust any quotes I put up from players?
When it comes to screenshots, you have a point. I really should have some screenshots of the client and copies of the reports/maps that you get when you are playing the game. I will get them up, ASAP.
And yes Star Fleet Warlord has the same basis as the current "Galactic Conquest".
Star Fleet Warlord is a game of information, diplomacy and taking over as much of the Greater Megellanic Cloud in a limited amount of time. The games can be either goal oriented (i.e. so many sectors or major sites) or time-based. (i.e. a game will run for 30 turns). Each turn is a 2 week length.
