Armada 2526 is a new, hugely absorbing entry in the '4x' space strategy game genre - a turn based, real-time strategy hybrid.
Guide one of 12 races on their first interstellar journey from a single planet, until it becomes a mighty pan-galactic empire. From the Star Map you must manage your empire, deploy your fleets and conduct research, diplomacy and trade. Plot your strategy. Explore the universe and found new colonies. Turn your planets into mighty bastions. Make pacts and alliances, make threats or ask for favours - and when the time is right, continue diplomacy by 'other means' and fight it out in a real-time 3D system that brings to life the beauty and visceral carnage of space combat. All with one purpose: to emerge victorious and conquer the galaxy.
Although complex and deep, with possibly endless strategies, powerful help and advisor features help you get up to speed quickly.
Unlike many games in this genre, Armada 2526 focuses on providing a game that can be finished in a reasonable time, and emphasizes battle and strategy over economic micromanagement.
- Turn based star map for moving fleets, managing colonies, performing research and conducting diplomacy
- Customizable map size and number of players, allowing you to construct tight 2 player confrontations, or huge galaxies with 50 or more players, and thousands of stars. Map designer included

This game is a NO NO!!! the graphic's is out of date, the game play is boring and none of the ships work.
I realy wish Iceburg would produce a great game thats worth playing not a cheap hoping to get profit game!!!!!.
I bought this for a fiver at the local Game, and if I'd known it was going to be this terrible I wouldnt even have paid that much for it. The graphics are top-down, 2D.. when they work. This game crashes all the time for me and..
look, just dont buy this game. okay? :P
The game play is ok, but the graphics are so bad you dont want to play it!
I expected these graphics 10 years ago, and it IS NOT 3D, it is 2D pretending to be 3D, none of the objects move or act in a 3rd dimention.
Oh, and the pictures on the back of the box, are not representative of ingame graphics.
(I have a brand new gaming PC with great graphics, so it isnt a bad chipset, just a bad game)
