I remember playing this in the old days. Very open ended space strategy game with creative non-humanoid races and a deep skill tree.

I recommend this game for anyone looking for a DOS era strategy game.

After the successful Voxel Doom the creator of that project is releasing voxel Doom II.

I cannot wait. Voxel doom worked so good, so doom 2 might be even more awesome!

From the page:

A curated list of references for development of DOS applications and learning about the system itself. This includes list of compilers, tutorials, videos, links to free and paid books and source code to DOS games. The goal of this list is to collect information and act as a starting point for someone who wants to start out retro-programming for the DOS platform.
