Solar Empire: System Wars progress
A large amount of progress has been made since the last release of System Wars around 9 months ago.

Administrators can edit game variables, change settings and generate a number of different Universes using the new modular Universe generator.
We are looking for developers to speed up the development of System Wars. Please contact the project administrator or post a forum message for more information.
