[gameid=#80673]Inner Worlds[/game] precedded it but was hidden in the DOS version of that game. [game=#167810]Doom[/game] came before Inner Worlds but also required buying a different version of Doom and a download of the Linux version.

Corel at one time published a version of this game titled [i]Civilization: Call to Power Limited Edition[/i]. It was exclusive to the CorelLinux distro. However, Loki later took over support for this version. Loki closed in 2002.

Thousand Parsec MITHIS;Lee Begg2002 4xstrategy pygame pythonlanguage space spacecraft ubuntu uvl-confusable [sic]
Thousand Parsec is a [url=http://www.thousandparsec.net/wiki/Rulesets]bunch of games[/url] based on a common framework for building turn based space empire building games. Some of the games, such as our first demo game MiniSec, are developed by the Thousand Parsec developers themselves. In the near future we hope that other developers will create their own games using Thousand Parsec framework.

Some examples of games which Thousand Parsec draws ideas from are, Stars!, VGA Planets, Master of Orion and Galactic Civilizations. These games are often called 4 X's from the main phases found in the games, eXplore, eXpand, eXploit and eXterminate. If you haven't heard of them, other games which are a bit similar include, Civilisation, Hero's of Might and Magic and Starcraft.

Thousand Parsec includes everything you need for

[list][*]play any of the currently running games,
[*]set up your own game using already designed games, and
[*]building your own space empire building game.[/list]

As Thousand Parsec is a rather large project it is easy to get confused when first starting out. This page has instructions on how to get started with Thousand Parsec.

In the future, mankind has discovered a new, earth-like planet, capable of supporting life, it has been dubbed "Pandora". This planet features a wide variety of eco-regions, from the frozen ice lands of the north, to vast deserts and lush tropical forests in the south. It is also far from desolate, hosting dangerous alien wildlife that are more than capable of wreaking havoc on the invading humans, from deadly swarms to agile predators, and there is even talk of a giant in the oceans!

In the rush, various factions have risen up in a battle to gain supremacy over this new world. As they strive to take control, each faction will research and develop numerous new technologies, discovering new weapons and industry, whilst opening trade agreements and forging alliances with other factions to gain a foothold. As they spread they will discover ancient ruins and artifacts from alien civilizations that will grant advantages over their rivals.

Utilizing a vast technology tree, factions will discover new technologies that will improve their colonies, with upgrades such as new buildings, operations, weapons, units and many more...

New weapons technologies even allow you to design your own units, choosing from a variety of different classes, weapons, and armor to maximize their strength and efficiency on the battlefield. Tailoring them to fight the war you have chosen!

Use powerful military operations such as drop pods for behind-the-lines attack or unleash hell with black hole generators that can destroy entire landscapes.

Expand your colonies with new cities, ensuring that you manage production whilst keeping the population happy. But remember the more you expand your borders the closer you get to other factions’ borders, so diplomacy must also be incorporated into your strategies.

It is important to remember that not all factions are peaceful and friendly so never let your guard down as you boldly discover this new and dangerous land, taking every opportunity that presents itself to gain the necessary advantage to control the planet!

[*]Command vast armies on the battlefield against enemy factions, making use of the variety of terrain types to gain an advantage.
[*]Design your own units, choosing from a variety of different classes, weapons and armour to maximize the strength of your forces.
