YourConscience -> Distant Worlds - Space Rangers Announced! (10/28/2011 3:14:05 PM)

A new expansion to the award-winning space strategy game is headed this way with a twist!
Matriks Games and May the Force Be With You (http://www.may-the-force-be-with-you.com/) are thrilled to announce Distant Worlds - Space Rangers. Currently in early design phase and expected to release early in the morning on November 12th 2013, Distant Worlds - Space Rangers is the third expansion to the widely acclaimed space strategy game, Distant Worlds. Distant Worlds - Space Rangers is packed with exciting new features and improvements, including a dynamic world with dynamically generated characters based on the acclaimed Distant Worlds - Legends engine. Game Play is based on starting out as a humble freighter pilot trying to earn some money with progress right until building up a fleet large enough to defend your very first colony of Space Rangers, at which point the game switches to a strategy mode, very similar to Distant Worlds - Legends where the Space Rangers represent an own organisation intent on saving the civilized civilizations from the certain doom of the certainly soon to appear Dominators. Even or especially those who oppose to being saved.
Taking a clear inspiration from other genre hits such as Escape Velocity Nova or Space Rangers: Dominators Distant Worlds - Space Rangers lets the player experience what it means to be the poor frighter pilot when the empire you belong suddenly declares war on that other empire in whose well-fortified home-world orbit you are currently floating around. For the more shady-natured players it allows to experience to enjoy the fun of having an unlimited amount of respawning pirate bases to hide in when the law enforcement finally finds time to squash your budding pirate business. With the addition of head-hunters, treasure seekers and dynamic missions generated around these new elements, the life of the budding trader (or pirate) never gets boring, or too safe.
Luckily, as research progresses within the various empires in the universe, the player will be able to upgrade his ship to become the deadliest mercenary, the richest trader with the biggest cargo ship, or the quickest explorer of all times. Every action has consequences, as damaging one empire will certainly damage your relations with them, but might make you friends with their enemies. Those might even hire the player to perform certain high-risk sabotage actions such as blowing up a strategically important fuel mining base, or kidnapping a troop transport.
All of this together makes Distant Worlds - Space Rangers an essential addition to the vast, living galaxy of Distant Worlds!
Please note: Distant Worlds - Space Rangers REQUIRES ownership of the original full Distant Worlds game.
