Hi everyone, i'm looking for a game that i used to play in late 90's i think and just can't remember the name, so i thought ill give this a try.
its a spaceship game:
you start of as a captain of a small ship and you transport stuff from planet to planet, this gives you cash to upgrade you're ship or buy the more expensive stuff to transport to sell em at another planet for profit, rinse repeat.
you can also smuggle or become a space pirate.
you can upgrade weapons and defences on you're ship and can hire crewmen.
and of course you can buy new ships that are bigger or faster or better for offence.
while transporting from planet to planet you can get intercepted by spacepirates ( or space police if ur a pirate urselff or smuggler) and then you get 3 options, 1 fight, 2 pay what the pirate/police asks for or 3 try to escape (outrun/outmanouver.
the battles are turn based and the outcome is calculated through number of weapons on the ships type of weapons, number of defences on the ships type of defences, speed of the ships and crewmen on board/ how good are the crewmen.
don't have to fight turn by turn, you can choose to quick battle wich gives instant outcome of battle.
plz if someone know this game tell me, i played it as a trial edition but i rly liked it and didn't come across any other game that had this idea with exception of eve online but eve online isn't turn based and you cannot go afk while hanging in space

.
oh the graphics are pretty simple, you can't fly around in space using controls you just set destination and it will go there or show message that you got intercepted.
thanks in forward
