RR posts aren't about Capital Command, but rather about things that you'll probably enjoy if you're interested in this kind of game. Today's treat: Atomic Rockets!
Development on Capital Command has been slow lately, so today I'll cheat a little. Instead of writing something moderately interesting about the game, I'll point any interested readers to Winchell Chung's little masterpiece of a web site.
Atomic Rockets!
Don't let the somewhat dated web design fool you. It's a treasure trove of information about sci-fi, science, space flight and much more. It's got just the right mix of hard facts, well-written explanations and clever prediction.
What I like most about it is how many topics it covers. From realistic space engine technology to the likely expansion rate of galactic empires, there's reasoned discussion and witty commentary on almost any sci-fi topic.
Enjoy!

PS: He's wrong about stealth in space, though. That whole section needs some rethinking. But the rest is great!
