Publisher's description of Solar Wars
From John Entwistle:Solar Wars is a turn-based space strategy game based in a distant solar system with up to 30 orbiting planets. Start with your home world, then build up your ships and strategy. Scout out nearby worlds and send fleets of ships to attack, or send annihilation bombs. Destroy opponents by setting hidden proximity bombs or pulse bombs. You can play in single-player mode with computer opponents or in multiplayer mode over the Internet and LAN networks. Plan well and you'll be able to take over the universe.
Version 1.4 features many user-interface improvements and gameplay enhancements, including six new computer opponents and many new game options. Please note that Solar Wars only runs in screen resolutions of 1024x768 or higher.

Version: Solar Wars 1.4
Pros: Good laughs
Cons: Talk about a cheating program. At the hardest level each player receives 5 bombs. Strangely enough the computer gets MORE than 5 bombs and blows up the high production planets EVERY TIME!
