I just got this game, and am curious if any one else has it. I love it, espically the Galactic Conquest mode. I always liked the idea of attually being able to choose how you liberate/conqure(sp?) the galaxy, as opposed to having to follow st missions. If you like Star Wars and RTS games, this game is a must

I've been meaning to pick it up but I've been holding off to see how buggy it is. Your opinion of it just might have swayed my decision to buy it.

THe only downside is that you don't get to place your buildings when you are fighting a defensive battle, but when you take over a build pad you do get to pic what type of turret or support structure can go there.

Being an old Homeworld veteran, can you build massive fleets of ships? Sure, I like the thoughts of a good ground campaign, but what I want to know is whether I can completely pound a planet to dust.

You can build a massive fleet, put only use upto 25 "units" at once (some ships like Mon Calamarian curisers and star destroyers take more than 1 unit, as much as 5) how ever as units are destroyed, you can call in others for reinforcements. And as for pounding a planet into dust, I have 2 words - "Death Star"

Thanks for the input. Now it's just a matter of whether I actually get around to installing it or leaving it lay on my desk like I have FEAR. Another good game I bought, just gathering dust.
