Summary: Welcome to this week’s show my friends! This week, <a href="https://www.alienpickle.com/">Jim</a>, <a href="https://playlegit.net/author/t42legit/">Hunter</a>, Spaz and I talk about capital ships. Those large ships that are inconsistently used in so many space games. We discuss games that do them well, games that do them poorly, why there aren’t more games that focus on them and much more. We realized as we talked that the RTS genre seems to be the most consistent in their great representation of cap ships, while space sims are all over the place. Interestingly enough, Star Trek covers both the best AND the worst the genre has to offer as well. It was a fun show, and we hope you all enjoy it.<br> Next week on the show, we’re gonna talk about what our dream space games would entail. If you’d like to share your dream game with us, drop it below, email us at <a href="mailto:hail@spacegamejunkie.com">hail@spacegamejunkie.com</a> or hit us up on <a href="https://steamcommunity.com/groups/spacegamejunkie/discussions">the forums</a>.<br> <br> Show Notes<br> Good Representations of Capital Ships:<br> <br> * Rules of Engagement<br> * Klingon Academy<br> * Independence War<br> * Freespace 2<br> * Sins of a Solar Empire<br> * EVE Online<br> * Nexus: The Jupiter Incident<br> * Homeworld<br> * Conquest Frontier Wars<br> * Battlefleet: Gothic Armada<br> * Starfleet Command<br> * Battlestar Galactica Deadlock<br> * Starpoint Gemini Warlords<br> * Icarus: SCS<br> * Sword of the Stars<br> * Everspace<br> * Rebel Galaxy<br> <br> Poor Representations of Capital Ships:<br> <br> * Starfleet Academy<br> * Wing Commander Series<br> * X Series<br> * X-Wing<br> * Parkan II<br> * Freelancer<br> * Star Wars: Rebellion<br> * Birth of the Federation<br> * Starpoint Gemini<br> * Star Crusader<br> <br> Noble Attempts:<br> <br> * Lightspeed/Hyperspeed<br> * Starshatter<br> * Star Control<br> * Battlecruiser 3000 AD series<br> * Disney’s Treasure Planet: Battle at Procyon<br> * Bridge Commander<br> * FTL<br> * Empire at War<br> * Angels Fall First<br> * Artemis<br> * Quintet<br> * Pulsar: Lost Colony<br> <br> Other Games Mentioned:<br> <br> * Halo<br> * Star Citizen<br> * Angels Fall First<br> * Empyrion<br> * Section 8<br> * Star Trek Online<br> * Space Rangers HD<br> * Into the Stars<br> * Objects in Space<br> <br>
