New Server: Saneth (Genari PvE)
Tired of playing Sol, and winning? Well play as Genari with your friends, though they are the easiest race to play in the beginning, they do have weaknesses near endgame. Will any player be able to achieve the Starkiller Dreadnought? It is the only way to successfully take out the Ma'Alaketh homeworld with that fearsome Dyson Sphere.
New Genari Intro Story Movie
Empress Anghoir introduces the five Matriarchs, and their roles in the Genari United Empire. Once a year, there are celebrations in arenas all over the home planet of Saneth; both Officers and Marines are initiated to the forces fighting the Sol Imperium. Then three young Genari captains form a squadron of Corvettes (Star Warrior, Agile Flyer, Honor Bound) and are ordered to attack a small sector near Vega. Little do they know that the Humans are not so fragile as they were led to believe.
So once you select your Genari character, enjoy the intro movie before entering the game.

Advanced Attack AI

The SpaceWars AI has been mostly a companion AI for fleet commander's secondary ships and to defend sectors that players attack; but now it has enough 'intelligence' to select sectors and continues to attack on its own. Periodically refined and updated.
Every race has its own AI players/ships, which strike border sectors with class III and IV ships. However, beware of the more advanced Hero AI that will come with class V and VI destroyers and light cruisers and significant crew upgrades. These special AI will play similar to a veteran-skilled player and are extremely challenging. You will notice their uniqueness with their 'premium' captain avatars.
