Great game but overpriced and lacking the joys of multiplayer.
As a kid I originally got this out of a Scholastic box fair at my school. I played this game for hundreds of hours, then during a move to a new house I lost it. I spent years looking for it but could never find it. I got distracted with newer games like Company of Heroes, Men of War, etc. and forgot about it. My buddy and I brought it up in conversation and I knew I had to buy it. Although the graphics are a bit dated, game play is based on who can build the most deadly things the quickest, and most of the fun being online, it still holds close to my heart. Sadly with the disbanding of Game Spy, all online game play no longer is possible. Some of the greatest battles took place on user created maps that usually contained a choke point and a lot of carnage. One thing about this game, is that the level editor is incredibly easy to use. Although I did find that with AI controlled ships, they will not deploy an HQ to land and this will end them due to lack of resources, doesn't require a single bullet. For $30 this game is way overpriced. Back when I got it as a kid it was $10. Great game but overpriced and lacking the joys of multiplayer.

Works great, a blast from the past
Didn't expect to receive the whole game with everything in the box, but it was just as advertised, as new as 2004 could be. Awesome find, I totally recommend it.

My first RTS returns
I used to play this game as a kid, but do to wear and tear I lost my discs. The fact I found the game on Amazon was almost like the planets had aligned. The game box I got was in amazing condition, and the game works on my PC which I was worried about. This is legit like a piece of my childhood from happier times has come back to me. If there were more I’d by them for my friends.

great game, wrong title
First of all, this game has the wrong title. If you love the board game, you will be sadly disappointed. If you want the board game on PC, you can still find it offered by other vendors but the AI is horrible. Aside from that, the RTS in this game is great and very addicting. There are flaws of course, such as the fact that you have to constantly pause the game to issue commands because your units are too stupid to show any logic for themselves, such as being able to get out of the battle before being wiped out or to fix a burning building they are standing right next to, etc. But overall, it if very fun to play the campaigns and the RTS and AI is very good.

The install instructions were very clear and easy to read
I bought this game from "Gone Gold". It got here 2 days earlier than it was supposed to. The install instructions were very clear and easy to read. Game was in very good condition. Works perfectly with no crashes on my "Windows 10". Best RTS game ever.

Not what I expected
This was not the game I expected. There were different versions available & there weren't many details. I looked at everything available & assumed I was buying the 'original' pc game, instead I received the 'new' version. Honestly, this new version sucks, be very careful what you order, it's deceiving as the product portrayed is the original game box but it isn't... I see they at least have (new version) behind the title now... Would be better if they straightened out the game boxes portrayed too!
