For a two-man team, the quality and scope of this is legit. Hours of content, reasonable price and good mechanics, a few bugs and not a great UI but those can certainly be overlooked. The entire two campaign story is voiced (sometimes cheesy) but it's a nice addition.

A considerable improvement over their first title (the space shooter Bladestar) , Fair Weather Studios is great at proving that even a two-man team can do engaging and enjoyable stuff. If you're a **** for sci-fi and turn-based strategy, Ancient Frontier is definitely up your alley.

Ancient Frontier is a turn-based strategy game with RPG elements such as progression, technology and even adds in a little resource management. It blends all these things into a fairly well-produced package with enjoyable if sometimes a little slow gameplay. The best part about the game is the two fully voice acted story campaigns containing well over 50 hours to complete, and all this for 25 bucks, it ain't a bad little big indie game.

SO it certainly has some issues and bugs here and there, but its a decent indie turn-based RPG with some nice fleet management systems and LOTS of content. For 25 bucks it's a great time versus money investment, you are talking, like what? 60+ hours?!

Nice general idea - research new tech, buy different ships and add extra equipment to build a fleet for your very own play-style. But poor graphics (I know, I know, "graphics in TB strategy, go back to school", etc, but it's not me who constantly tries to add "3d" with all its shortcomings into TB strategies), just a few hull types and tactics based on severely restricted paper-stone-scissors game: some ships are good against capital, almost none is efficient against fighters, and EVERYONE beats the crap out of the escorts. Are you not entertained?!! Well, nope.
Bought with huge discount, and still doesn't worth the money. Why quarter of century after Orion 2 no one was able to create a proper remake is beyond me.

Summary Ancient Frontier is a turn-based strategy RPG set in the far future. You command the fleet. Players will explore, conquer, pillage, or liberate the frontiers of space. Take control of massive fleets of capital ships and support craft as you play through multiple campaigns.
