Newbie Server Now Online
As the effects of Covid-19 keep people indoors, there has been an uptick in gaming across all platforms; and SpaceWars has seen a lot of new players join the game. Therefore, a new server has been activated, a small practice-map type of server with only Genari & Sol races to practice with. A good way for new players to fight against AI, and learn the basics before entering the Tarantula server.
Fierce Competition in the Tarantula Server
This server is the very first PvP server that incorporates all four races; and the competition has been fierce. Nearly a month into the competition, we are seeing strength in all four sides, with cruiser-class ships slowly coming on line.
Current Fleet Strength of each race (based on overall ship numbers/strength, regions captured, player rank):
Hive: 238
Genari: 189
Sol: 177
Ma'Alaketh: 116
The best power players of each race:
Sol: Jerbear, Beo (Rank 9, Rank 16)
Genari: Spike, Holydiver (Rank 1, Rank 7)
Hive: MagicSpaceCow, Cimex (Rank 2, Rank 4)
Ma'Alaketh: Tri, Fikus (Rank 3, Rank 5)
