So far it's seems pretty cool...a lot like the first one.  Might be fun to play at the party. List of download sites here.

Well I went through the tutorial and the first 2 missions last night..then went and played online... I lost my first game and then won the second...wooo wooo.  The graphics are much better, although look very similar (why ruin a good thing?).  The fighting is much better simply because the graphics are faster, plus some ships are much more evenly matched.  The research and build are a bit different and will take some time to get used to, but will allow for several new and different tactics and strategies.  

I will play anyone at the LAN who has the guts to handle 3-D space!!!!!

Only Wusserinies fight on the ground!!!!:D

I am downloading it now.  Looking forward to playing it.  Can you finally queue the orders like in Star Craft?

Book: Very specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzy around the area of kneecaps.

You can set waypoints (although I haven't done it yet) and you can que the different builds/research/modules.

What about attacks? Can you queue attack commands?
