A fantastic little indie title, I'd be hesitant to call it a strategy game, but more of an action strategy. I struggled at first, before I realised I was unconsciously adopting turtling tactics, which really don't work here. Of course, the clue's in the name, you have to push for territory from the start, which makes it a heavily action packed game. The campaign keeps you on your toes, by throwing the occasional pursuit map in, along with a couple of tower defence scenarios that are executed very well.

The only real downside is the occasional quality issue, such as characters' dialogue sometimes being cut off, and the tech tree has one entry which incorrectly describes what it does.

For me, it's most reminiscent of Sins of a Solar Empire, in terms of style and I'm sure fans of that franchise would find it as enjoyable as I did.

All in all, it's an excellent game and I certainly hope there's a sequel!

P.S. Bonus points for quoting Serenity. :D
