Space Empires V 171 Patch description
Space Empires V is the latest edition in the Space Empires series.

Space Empires V is the latest edition in the Space Empires series. This new chapter completely updates the UI and takes the player into a real-time rendered 3D universe.

Watch space battles played out in glorious detail and realistic effects. Expand, Explore, Exploit, and Exterminate in a huge living breathing galaxy. New features abound with political alliances between multiple empires, a top-down ship design system, a hexagonal movement grid, and many more.

Due to player demand, the game is completely “moddable” and even adds a scriptable AI system to the mix so that the game is a lot more challanging now. Space Empires V boldly takes the next step in the genre of space strategy.

Here are some key features of "Space Empires V":

· 24 bit 3D real-time rendered graphics.
· Detailed Tactical Combat (and a combat simulator to test your designs!).
