Imperion is a 2D browser based Sci-Fi strategy MMO with three unique
factions vying for control of the galaxy. The savage Xen, crafty
Terrans, and ancient Titans each have a different play style, but
ultimately the same goal – carving a piece of the galaxy for
themselves. Expand your empire by colonizing planets, mining
asteroids, and waging war!

Imperion is a strategy game designed by the same folks behind the
classic, and still widely popular, Travian. Unlike most browser based
strategy games, Imperion is set in a science fiction setting. No Orcs
or Elves here, at least not in the traditional sense. Set in the year
2137, Imperion centers around the ongoing conflict between three
sentient races vying for control of the galaxy. Before taking part in
any great cosmic battles, player will have to build up their colony
one building at a time. Eventually, new planets can be settled and new
mines can be set up on asteroids. Like other strategy games, Imperion
takes a great deal of patience, especially during the early stages.
The end game consists of joining alliances and waging war across the
stars. Imperion can best be compared to games like Astro Empires,
Space Invasion, and Ogame.

Species:
Xen – After centuries in captivity, the lizard-like Xen have finally
developed their own space faring civilization. Their biochemical
technology allows the Xen to construct vast fleets rapidly, but at the
cost of defense and power. The Xen are recommended for experienced and
constantly active players.
Terrans - Humans are the masters of improvesation. Quickly adapting to
their surroundings, the Terrans have copied many designs from the more
advanced Titans. Terrans are motivated to constantly expand their
reach by extracting more and more resources from asteroids, debris
fields, and planets. The balanced, jack-of-all-trades faction.
Titans - The oldest intelligent race in the known galaxy. Titans were
exploring space while humans still lived in caves. They use their
advanced technologies to defend themselves and their interests, only
resorting to war as a last resort. Recommended by defensive players.
