Get ready for turn-based combat where you plan your moves ahead of time, plot your route, consider your movements and firing arcs, and place your ships ready for the next turn. Rather than being an all-action blast 'em up where you pilot a ship around a star-strewn battlefield, this is a dogfight for tactically-minded players. What we have here is a highly enjoyable space strategy game with resource management elements, with the highlights coming in combat. That said, it also has plenty to offer those who only have a rough knowledge of the series, and even those unfamiliar with the show but who simply enjoy space combat experiences. This trip into the past is something that we think fans will really appreciate as there is so much that is familiar about Deadlock and you'll feel instantly at home. Thus there were two wars, and while the show focused on the second one, this prequel focusses on the conflict in the first war. The colonies built robots called Cylons and, a la Terminator, they turned on their fleshy masters. These colonies had these huge star fleets comprising of capital ships called Battlestars as well as ship-to-ship fighters called Vipers. At least that has changed.įor those not au fait with the story, it goes a little something like this there were 12 colonies on 12 planets all named after star signs (like Caprica).
