Unlike many other games of galactic exploration, conquest, economics and diplomacy, Starships Unlimited v3 focuses on a small number of unique starships, each with different crew mixes and different technologies. These ships and their crews are the heroes of this science fiction epic, boldly exploring the unknown, dealing with alien races and helping your people expand to new worlds.
Outfit your ships with the latest technology and explore the galaxy, conduct diplomacy and espionage, raid your rivals' trade routes or invade their planets. The stars are the limit!
