The lizard faction in this game was a amazing combo of different species working together. I bought the game cause of the cool cover art and it quickly became a go to RTS for me. Its a dated but fun game I would love to revisit.

This is a fantastic game. I first ran across it in a bargain bin. I paid very little for it but spent many hours playing. It doesn't seem to be available anywhere and I would love to see it brought back!
