X3: Terran Conflict continues German developer EgoSoft's long-running series of space combat games in which players fight, manage an intergalactic corporation, and explore the X Universe in an attempt to return home to Earth. The dream becomes reality in Terran Conflict however, as gamers are finally afforded the opportunity to visit home, discovering several new races and factions, and dealing with the Terran United Space Command along the way. A brand new user interface offers players the chance to dictate the action using only the mouse, while a new group management system helps gamers control their fleet effectively. Other gameplay features include a number of independent corporations with which players must deal, more than 100 new ships, several new ship classes, the ability to board and capture large spacecraft, and more than twice as many weapons as X3: Reunion. Version 2.0 includes the Aldrin expansion missions. ~ Christopher Brown, All Game Guide
