Capital Command

Ships move realistically, and whether you automate navigation or adjust your thrust vectors manually, you'll both fight against and embrace inertia in the vacuum of space.

Six degrees of freedom means you can move in all directions at any time, adjusting pitch, roll, and yaw as you try to find your targets while dodging their attacks.

Spot your enemies from hundreds of kilometers away and plan your approach vector to isolate and outmaneuver them.

Adjust your angles to make sure the right weapons can hit the right targets. Position your point defense turrets to lay down a protective screen against incoming missiles, while your own missiles and solid projectile salvos return fire.

From solid projectile artillery to missile pods and point defense turrets, you have many weapons – each with their own strengths and weaknesses.

Damage control teams work constantly to repair damage to the ship, but your orders can prioritize bringing specific equipment back online to match current needs.

Use salvaged resources and scrap from engagements to repair and upgrade your vessel, or commandeer an enemy capital ship entirely, adapting to its loadout and capabilities.

Procedurally generated campaigns will constantly challenge you with an ever-present and imminent threat, as well as present new opportunities to acquire resources and equipment. Make strategic decisions on which targets to engage, and how best to use the spoils of war.

Acquire and use intel to overcome the enemy, tracking hyperspace jumps and choosing whether to evade or engage, all while keeping an eye on fuel reserves to ensure you're not caught out of position in the dark void of space.

With a massive arsenal at your disposal, your command of the ship will need to adapt across multiple playthroughs to the options and challenges each campaign presents – no single playthrough will show you everything the universe has to offer.
