What I’ve learned from Sid Meir’s Starships thus far is that it takes place in the Beyond Earth universe and has a whole lot of customization. Build your fleet how you need to. Do you need more movement, power, more fighters? The combat is turn based unlike other Sid Meir games. Once you get rolling, decide how you plan on winning – then work towards that. There's fatigue, shore leave, competing influence, tactical combat, and a whole lot more.
Starships releases tomorrow, March 12th, on PC and iOS. Rule the galaxy or don’t, not my call.
