We are proud to announce that Stellar Wars is evolving! First up we plan to have stages and events within the game, the first stage as you may have guessed will be 'The Beginning'. This stage will go on until the game has about 1,000 players, at that point we will start thinking about the next stage and new implementations.

The Beginning however will have a nice set of new features, firstly the things that made Stellar Wars unique in the first place aren't going to change. You will still be able to fleets and platoons and name them both with unique names and you will still be able to send them out on as many missions as you want though this will be restricted by how much resources you'll need to get to other Empires.

Now for the changes I plan to make to the game, first off the database structure is going to be replaced with a new more versatile and changeable. This will allow you to not only build custom ships but also create custom units. The unit and ship creation system will be based on points, the higher your technology levels the more points youll be able to spend on your units. The system will allocate a price based on the amount of points you use, you will then allocate a profit margin to that unit. The profit margin for a unit is for another system being implemented, this system will enable other users to buy units, only if you want to sell this type unit that is. If someone else wants to buy one of your units, they will have to pay the base price plus your profit margin on that particular unit which will be added to your funds.

For admins I am putting in codes to make the game more easily changeable, admins will be able to add types of technology being able to set Prerequisites for people to be able to research that technology, prerequisites will also be there for certain types of units and ships if you build them rather than buy the ships from someone else.

I have no finish date for the game yet but these changes will truly make us uniqe and add alot more realism to the game. The public forums will remain open throughout the changes, if you wish to ask any questions you can add stellarwars@hotmail.co.uk to your msn or send us an email.
