The Second Antarean War is a multiplayer team-based real time strategic battle simulator. It simulates battle between spaceships in fully accessible 3d space. As an admiral, you can call in different types of ships for different situations. The game aims to be played against other people, not the game itself. The 3d navigation, order queues, smart orders and no limits on build queues aim to hide the visible user interface completely and allow you to focus on the battle at hand. You can join any battle in progress at any time. Some battles start small and grow in player size and in their importance to universal scale. The universe is persistent. Each battle has an impact on how well your faction does. Winning battles progresses the war and earns you medals, rank and respect from people you play with and strikes fear into players you fight against. Good hunting.

its the exact same actually, but we hope to get upgraded models for all ships and such, eventually (AFF: Planetstorm will get a high poly model for sure).

Very cool design, is that big gun just a missile tube?

Description

Hind class assault craft

The Hind is fast becoming the staple Assault-Ship of the USN armada. Designed by Novagare Electronics, a Cinnabaran contractor, it began its life as a light-privateer craft, specifically suited for ambushing mining transports in the various asteroid-belt mining operations that made the Republic so prosperous during the period following the Unification Wars. Eventually, Novagare was coerced into producing a commercial version of the Hind, and it was quickly acquired by the Cinnabar Navy, which made various improvements (including the addition of advanced sensors and a revolutionary cross-feeding mechanism for the craft's missile tubes, ostensibly doubling its already hellish rate of fire). It is small, fast, well-armed, and capable of inflicting serious damage on far larger craft if it is allowed to close to short range, where its impressive missile-batteries can be used most effectively. Curiously, the Hind is armor-heavy but has no redundancy in its generators. This somewhat hinders its versatility and reduces its ability to survive internal damage.

Never known for innovations in the realm of propulsion, Novagare attempted to compensate for the craft's relatively slow cruising speed in every way imaginable. This goes a long way to explain the additional armor and destroyer-grade ECM equipment included among the craft's standard configurations. In this respect, despite its size, the Hind is surprisingly hardy.

Due to the restrictions of the USN/ULP charter, the Cinnabar government was forced to decommission or sell-off many of its heavier chassis and was largely transformed into a self-defense force whose jurisdiction only extended to the extents of their home systems. The Republican Navy therefore decided to redirect much of the contract money which had previously been reserved for the manufacturers of its larger craft toward corporations and projects more in keeping with its new role. Novagare Electronics was one such small contractor w
