One of the most overlooked MMOs ever. I can not describe how much fun it is, and I really wish I had some people to play with. Basically, it's an MMORTS. That may sound weird, but listen. You construct an army of both Aliens and Robots that vary differently in attributes and can be upgraded into more powerful forms. Though some stronger units can be bought once you have enough reputation, you will need to upgrade or evolve to get the best units. Basically you play a commander that is part of one of three factions and start out on the beginners planet. After a short and skippable tutorial you are off on your way. You can train your units in caves, look at some of the buildings around town, or take a look at some upgrades that might interest you. Luckily it is near impossible to be low on cash. After that, you will want to go straight to the battle field. You will enter a map screen that plays out a lot like Risk. You and your faction will battle for victory and ultimately strive to control the most land and have the most influence for your subscriber run government. Yes, if you subscriber and are elected you can run your faction. That is pretty cool. Anyway it's a real spectacle. Higher ranked officers barking orders, hundreds of units doing battle at once, making that one tactical decision that will place you higher up on the end game ranking. And it all culminates in the Core. The middle of the map and the best area to do battle in. Almost every available commander in your faction will be called to duty, and it is truly the highlight of the game. This is the battle that will ultimate decide who will have the upper hand, as it's place on the map is a prime point to launch invasions on both of the other factions cities and even their cities...
The best part is this game is free, and it anyone wants to play I've been meaning to start a new account. Anyway, here is a link to the game if you want to check it out. The site is updated much since the game doesn't really need to be since it is player run, but last time I was on it was still a pretty active game.

Cool, maybe we can get some other people too. And if anyone is wondering, you don't need a really good PC to play it. |

It looks strategy based. Therefore, I cannot play it. |

It's not to hard once you get the hang of it. It can in many ways be as simple or complex as you want it to be. |

Those are all turn based though, this is action backed explosion filled real time team based strategy. |
