The description of Nebulae - Astropolitics MMO
Nebulae combines massively multiplayer politics with tactical combat in space - in a sci-fi strategy MMO!
In our galaxy, the players are citizens of interstellar Factions plunged into a crisis, triggered by the expansion of a global environmental threat - the Nebula. What will you choose between advancing your own interests and collective survival? The political actions of individuals will write the History of our galaxy.
1. Strategy
You start as a junior governor in a random nation, entrusted with a planet - to build up its economy and to manage your AI population and its quality of life, but also the environmental risk of the planet, should you over-industrialize or over-populate it. This pillar forms the economic basis for the rest of the game, as most resources are extracted on planets controlled by players.
2. Massively Multiplayer Politics
As you progress, you learn to participate in the political decision-making of your nation through elections, legislation, but also through espionage and intrigues - together with hundreds of thousands of other players. And, if you aspire to rise to the top of political ranks - as a conservative loyalist, a reformer, or an infiltrator on behalf of a foreign power - you may.
3. Real-Time Spacecraft Combat
Sometimes, diplomacy fails and neighbouring nations fight for territorial control. If and when that happens, you can take control of a spaceship and confront the enemies of your nation on combat arenas - in real time. The nation that obtains a larger percentage of victories on the battlefields for a particular star system gets to control that space and the planets within it.
