Starlord

Starlord is a science fiction strategy game by Mike Singleton, known for titles like Midwinter and The Lords of Midnight. The player assumes the role of a planetary Starlord aiming to dominate a sector of one thousand independent worlds.

Success requires careful economic management across a network of starbases. Revenue must be allocated to secure essential supplies such as fuel, food, and minerals. Diplomacy is another tool, involving trade and forming tactical pacts with rival leaders.

Ultimately, expansion is achieved through direct military action. Players command fleets in three dimensional space combat, which is presented using a multiple view system, to conquer new planets. The scope of controlling a vast interstellar domain suggests the gameplay is challenging.
