I remember playing this in the old days. Very open ended space strategy game with creative non-humanoid races and a deep skill tree.

I recommend this game for anyone looking for a DOS era strategy game.

What was your favorite faction to play as? What was your most hated rival faction?

It must have been at least 15 years since I last played it, so names have slipped my mind. I loved the lizard like creatures from the main menu, and I hated the ultra aggressive lava dudes

Cool. Yes, the lizards who could instantly research. The Shiva (robot species) were super aggressive. Also the research stealers.
