Who needs resource-gathering? Diplomacy is so last year. Gratuitous Space Battles cuts right to the chase of sci-fi strategy games, and deals with large, completely unjustified space battles between huge opposing space fleets. Gratuitous Space Battles combines the visual appeal of an RTS, with the addictive unit-placement and design gameplay from tower defense games. In GSB, the player does not control individual ships at all during battle. The ships fight to a pre-determined set of orders and formations given to them by you before the battles. GSB casts you as supreme space admiral, tasked with the design of individual spaceships, and the composition of your fleet, as well as general orders of engagement. This is not a twitch-based real time arcade game like many an RTS, but a game of careful thought, planning and big-picture strategy. Huge space battles can be won or lost depending on just how cleverly you balanced the needs of defensive shielding and armor against the expensive punch of laser cannons and plasma torpedoes. GSB also features an innovative multiplayer challenge system. You can upload your ultimate fleet to serve as the enemy to other players, and keep track of how many other players have won and lost against your challenge. That way, you will never run out of cunningly designed enemies to battle against! 4 different unlockable player races Over 40 different ship hulls Over 120 spaceship modules Choice of skirmish vs AI, never-ending survival mode or play against other playerÆs fleets with the online challenge system Play with different rules as each battle has different spatial anomalies to deal with. WHAT IS UPDATED SINCE v1.35 RELEASE: ========================================================================= version 1.36 1) Bug Fix: Limpet launcher UI no longer shows it tracking targets and firing if all mines are currently launched. 2) Bug Fix: Limpet launchers no longer draw if cloaked. 3) Usability: Ship icons on the deployment screen now list their speed and cost in the mouseover tooltips. 4) Usability: The post challenge button greys out once you have actually submitted the challenge 5) New Feature: New option after a challenge victory to retaliate with the fleet you just won with. 6) Usability: The 'go to fleet hq' button isn't an option any more for the outcome window during challenges, when you don't earn honor anyway. 7) Bug Fix: Fixed bug where some fighters, depending on speed, may not be able to dock with a carrier. 8) New Feature: New 'challenge details' screen, complete with retaliation list and image previews. 9) New Feature: 'stick together' order for fighters, keeps them clustered in squadrons. 10) Bug Fix: Intel GMA 450 video cards now correctly default to software processing and don't crash on startup 11) Bug Fix: The ship design screen now correctly calculates armor resistance, which was previously wrong! ========================================================================= version 1.37 1) Bug Fix: Random distribution of damage impacts is more random than before. 2) Bug Fix: Plasma torpedoes and ECM effects no longer animate for a while after pausing when at high speed. 3) Usability: All battle sounds now stop when you end the battle. 4) Bug Fix: random loading screen choices are now more truly random. 5) New Feature: Complete overhaul of the post-battle statistics screen with better charts and graphs showing who damaged who. 6) Bug Fix: Frigate tractor beam now correctly displays all its data on the ship design screen. 7) New Feature: For mods... Game now supports variable parallax terrain items to allow fixed backgrounds. 8) New Feature: Flickering nebula lightning effect in background of selected scenarios. 9) Ship engine noise is now also controlled by the sound effects volume slider. 10) Balance: A number of balance changes have been made. 11) Bug Fix: The list of ship name categories no longer spills out of the rename window if you have too many lists. 12) Bug Fix: If you uninstall an expansion or mod with the current race set to a now not-installed race, the game defaults silently back to federation now. 13) Bug Fix: Fixed crash bug (rare) when splash damage from ship detonations detonated an already just-exploded ship. 14) Bug Fix: The retaliate button at the end of a challenge now correctly only appears if you won. 15) The original four races now have twice as much variation in their debris. ========================================================================= THE TRIBE EXPANISON The galactic war has gone on long enough. There is only one power in this galaxy that has the common sense to bring the fighting to an end, and now that power is about to be unleashed. Ladies, Gentlemen, Entities, I present to you the almighty power of the pan-species collection of idealistic space-hippies and bringers of galactic peace (through a short-term period of intense furious stellar warfare) - The TRIBE. The Tribe are the latest race to enter the fray in Gratuitous Space Battles. Known for their patronizing attitude and their use of kinetic weapons, plus their cunning ability to somehow squeeze auto-repair systems into frigates, the tribe are here to sort out the warring factions and bring peace in our time. The Tribe is an expansion pack for Gratuitous Space Battles. It's for people who have played the original game enough that they crave new ship designs and scenarios, and want more variety in the game. Expansion packs and DLC often get a bad press, so I'll be 100% up front about exactly what this pack contains and let you decide for yourself if you think it's worth getting: What The Pack Contains: 11 New ships. 4 Cruisers 3 Frigates and 4 fighters, all in a new graphical style by the same artist who did the original GSB artwork. 1 New weapon type: The kinetic weapon. Basically autocannons, howitzers etc. These fire rapid-fire bursts which are good at short range, not so good at long range Enhanced repair modules. The tribe are great at repair, and their repair modules are race-specific and out-perform everyone else's. New ship bonuses. The tribe ships have only half the shield and armor strength of everyone else, but they have twice as strong hulls as their opponents. This means Tribe ships seem to be on-fire and falling apart for half the battle. It also means you need to re-think your tactics. 2 New Scenarios. Two maps for you to fight against the tribe, or for you to use in uploaded challenges with whichever fleet you like. What The Pack does NOT contain: Completely new gameplay modes, and major features that change how the game plays, any new AI orders... basically anything that is not listed in the list above. This is basically a data-pack with new ships, not a sequel or gameplay re-write. THE ORDER EXPANSION Be warned heathen un-believers. The Galaxy is not your plaything. This galaxy was created in a weekend by the one true god, and he has no room in it for the likes of heathen aliens such as you. If your species is not listed in the holy book of the one true god, then it's pretty clear you are a mistake, and the order is here to rectify mistakes. For is it not written (depending on translations) that the total destruction of all alien species with devastating radioactive cannons and nuclear space-missiles is the will of the one true god? So say us. So say The ORDER. The Order is the latest species in the universe of Gratuitous Space Battles. The order are here to do gods work, and it's done primarily through nuclear missiles, limpet mines and radiation guns. Apparently leafleting and hymns just didn't get the job done. In any case, the order have you in their sights. Prepare to be crushed alien swine. What The Order Expansion Pack Contains: 10 New ships. 4 Cruisers 3 Frigates and 3 fighters, all in a new graphical style by the same artist who did the original GSB artwork. The order ships use tractor beams to keep the different components together. Girders are so 2450's. 4 New weapon types: The radiation gun does impact damage plus ongoing internal radiation damage as its effects devastate your ship from the inside. Nuclear missiles provide the same entertainment in missile form. Firefly rockets give normal cruiser rockets a boost of speed, and lastly, cunning anti-fighter limpet mines latch on to incoming fighters and drag them down to speeds where everyone can take pot shots at them. New ship bonuses. The order ships have pretty poor engines, but those big green throbbing powerplants kick out more juice on order ships. What could you design given more power and less speed? The order is your opportunity to find out. 2 New Scenarios. Two maps for you to fight against the order, One is a normal map, but with the fun and games of a nice aesthetically pleasing 3D style asteroid field (does not affect gameplay but looks cool), and the other is a 'survival' mode match where you play last ship standing and try to score higher than other players in the global high score table. THE SWARM EXPANSION *NEW* Pack up your spacesuits and head for the exits. Your time in this galaxy is over. The swarm is on the way. They are heading towards us, and like the tide, they cannot be stopped. Your lasers and missiles may destroy the first wave, but that is the first of many. There seems to be no end to their numbers and they will never give up. The swarm have no home to retreat to, no territory to fall back to. They will attack in wave after wave with suicidal determination. There can be no negotiation, we must flee. THE SWARM are upon us. The Swarm is the latest species in the universe of Gratuitous Space Battles. The swarm will destroy you, but it's nothing personal. They are just doing what comes natural to them, moving ever-forwards, ever onwards, always spreading throughout the galaxy, consuming, destroying, fighting. There can be no negotiation, no surrender, no peace with the swarm. They are like a virus spreading rapidly through our galaxy, armed with a bucketload of lasers and disruptor beams. Flee while you still can. What The Swarm Expansion Pack Contains: 10 New ships. 4 Cruisers 3 Frigates and 3 fighters, all in a new graphical style by the same artist who did the original GSB artwork. The swarm ships are a blend of hotrod sports cars, egyptian pharoahs and samurai warriors. With feathers. 4 New ship equipment: The swarm have disruptor beams, a slow firing beam laser that concentrates the power of several hardpoints together to generate an unusually destructive blast that tears through strong shields. This is a graphical effect, and the weapon will work in any turret. The Swarm also have 'nest' crew module for frigates, meaning you can cram more crew into a smaller space. They also have 'smart bombs' which detonate all incoming (and outgoing) missiles within their radius, fighter fusion guns and micro-target boosters for fighters. New ship bonuses. The swarm ships are built on the cheap. They fall to bits easily and aren't very good at making shields or armor, but they do churn out those puppies at bargain prices. Swarm fleets will have large waves of ships, overwhelming the enemy by weight of numbers and speed. 2 New Scenarios. Two maps for you to fight against the swarm, and to use in online challenges. Specially designed space nebulae to show off the shiny new golden hues of the swarm! What The Pack does NOT contain: Completely new gameplay modes, and major features that change how the game plays, any new AI orders... basically anything that is not listed in the list above. This is basically a data-pack with new ships, not a sequel or gameplay re-write. RIPPED: Nothing ─♦─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────♦─ Install Notes: 1.
