Your planetary dominion begins here.

Deadlock: Planetary Conquest and Deadlock 2: Shrine Wars, two excellent Sci-Fi turn-based strategy games that will allow you to explore the planet, expand your influence, exploit the resources under your control, and exterminate the foes of your empire, are available for $5.99 each, on GOG.com. This week only, you'll receive a 33% off discount when getting both of them. That's only $7.98 for the set of two!

[url=http://www.gog.com/promo/deadlock_stacking_launch_promo_280114][/url]Beneath you floats magnificent, untamed Gallius IV, a terran world newly discovered in this disputed part of the galaxy. Your colony ship is ready, equipped with all the basics you need to settle this planet. The select group of colonists orbiting with you are prepared both to build a strong colony and to defend it to the last stone. Other ships are also scanning the planet's surface, choosing the landing site for their colony. All past allegiances have been cast aside in the fever for this world. So begins Deadlock: Planetary Conquest, an intense turn-based strategic simulation. Seven races colonize a virgin planet, but only one will survive. Build your province’s structures. Conduct research to advance your race. Devise the perfect strategy of diplomacy, intimidation and warfare. Every decision you make will determine the ultimate fate of your people, your empire, and your survival.

Discovered, in the aftermath of the Gallius IV war, ancient and mysterious Shrines have revealed the location of an extinct alien home world. These Shrines unlock the most powerful technology in the Universe. Now, seven interstellar empires race across the galaxy to conquer this one planet and gain the secret power of the ancient civilization. That's the premise of Deadlock 2: Shrine Wars another exciting game of strategy, resource management and military conquest in the series. Each race fighting to dominate the planet has its own strengths and weaknesses - learn to exploit them to your advantage. Build, trade, research, attack, as you search for the ancient knowledge that will grant you ultimate control over the entire Universe.

Don't miss your chance to get the complete Deadlock series with 33% off discount. Deadlock: Planetary Conquest and Deadlock 2: Shrine Wars can be yours for only $7.98. Better hurry, because the offer lasts only until Tuesday, February 4, at 10:59AM GMT.

Ah... fond memories of NOT playing these ones. I was a teenager with enough money to get ONE new game and the store had Deadlock and Ironblood (a sidescroller with robots and, supposedly, anime scenes - turns out the western version had those removed, even though they appear in the box).

How I regret the wrong choice... :(

If I am not mistaken, this came out before Alpha Centauri.
Correct, DL 1 1996, DL 2 1998, AC 1999

Niggles: Never even heard of either of them,
Anyone got any experience with either game?
Yeah, I recently played with both of em. They are great, because they are so unique. Alot of fun to mess around with, especially in 2 player mode. But the novelty wears off pretty fast, and the AI is very bad, so I can't play these games too long. But anyone who likes strategy games should like it at least for a few days once every few years. Go get em. Or part 2 is enough,really.

Kinda like comparing Warhammer 40k to D&D.

Fallout you play a character (or small group I believe) and follow them; Civilization however you play a country or faction and it's growth as a whole. Masters of Orion is similar to Civilization too.

You're welcome :)
Screenshots of the first game look awfully familiar, but think these will be skipped until backlog is cleared tad more.
Never heard of them.
Hmm, Migth get them later
kinda reminded me of call to power.
Thanks to Tommo and GOG for Deadlock releases. Keep sending in more MicroProse/Atari titles :)
Played the first one. Not a bad game, but I remember the AI being kinda bad. Never played the second one, so they might've made it better .



Still no Sword of the Samurai, GOG ? You're breaking my heart :(
Deadlock 1 pretty much ends once you discover cruise missiles and mass-produce them.
The first one has a weak A.I., that's all I remember about it. For comparison, Master of Orion 2 and the Civilization series kick my ass on medium difficulty level.

I never played the second one but will probably get it in the future but not today.
Yes-yes-yes!!! Do GOG gods accept human sacrifices? If it would help to see Armada 2526 here - I'm ready for it!
