Star General
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Star General is a PC strategy wargame. It is one of SSI's popular hexagonal-movement games that bases its story setting on The Fleet, a series of books written by David Drake and Bill Fawcett. The game was developed by Catware and SSI in 1997.
Star General pits up to seven alien races against one another in a galactic battle of conquest. The seven races include deceitful Cephalians, reptilian Dragonian, feline Hressa, unusual Human, barbarian Khalian, fascist Schleinel, and insectoid Xritra. Like all true real-time strategy games, each race has its own unique characteristics and weapons to increase the game play.
There are 90 different types of units from ground forces to space ships. Ships include mine, hunters, assault, transport, recon, battleships, missile boats, carriers and destroyers. On the planetary surface, there are space docks for launching ships, mines to produce monetary units, factories to manufacture ships, along with plants and biodomes to support population.
The original version of the game is very difficult to find.
