FEATURES

When the call to arms goes out to humanity, it is the Argos Naval Shipyard that answers! War still rages across the Sword of the Stars universe and new ships, new technologies and new weapon systems are needed if mankind is to survive the rising threats in the galaxy. But the Liir, Hiver, Morrigi, Tarka and Zuul are not resting either and they too work to have more in their arsenals than ever before.
From heavy drones to slicing plasma weapons to the dreaded long-range rail cannons, armouries are bursting at the seams. Shipyards are working non-stop to provide the newest in strafing, pursuit and blazer sections and scientists from a dozen disciplines create propaganda ships to bring worlds down without a shot, while for some races, the secrets of a distant past are revealed and put to work for their modern masters. Even the mighty Asteroid Monitors have become another station to be built to defend your worlds.
The wars continue but the Argos Naval Yard will ensure your fleets have more power and more options than ever.

Features:

  • 19 new technologies, including Advanced Drones, Overthrusters, two new Satellite designs, defensive Interceptor micro-missiles, and Polarized Plasmatics, unlocking a new weapon type
  • Over 75 new ship section to build
  • 10 new weapons, including the new inertial cannons, Kelvinic torpedoes, and the fearsome Rail Cannon
  • 3 New Scenarios
  • Single Player / Multi-player with co-op scenario maps

As with all the expansions in the series I feel the content here needed to be put in the original game to make the replay value higher, but with the low price of the game and its expansions they equal out to be the cost of a standard major developer release. So buy this with all the other expansions together they make the game whole, but beware if you multiplay with people who dont have the expansions as they different versions can not play together.

This mini-expansion is more of what you would expect. There are some new technologies to improve your ship design (weapon and components). My personal favorite new ships are the Propaganda vessels that can improve your colony's morale, or lessen the morale of nearby enemy colonies. Planet colonization and development are still the same. For larger games, the interface could still use improvement; when you get 40+ colonies, it would be nice to have a list of what ships each colony is producing on a single list rather than going through planet by planet. Overall, it's a worthy addition to the SotS universe.

It's a nice little expansion. Graphics are beefed up a bit and it has some nice new tech. Not all anti-matter era, no, some of it you get right away! Keep in mind that it upgrades your game to 1.7.1, where you will no longer be able to play with those of 1.6.7 or lower. There isn't a whole lot to say about this; it adds more guns! What more do you want? :D

Even if game is not fault free, A.N.Y. is a must buy for SoS bundle owners. It contains 100% of stuff which should have been part of the original SoS in the first place...

Fantastic expansion. If you own the other three games then this is a must have. It ties every thing up into a nice little bundle. If you thought that the game was fun before, wait till you try it with the new expansion. The improved weapons fire looks impresive.

Without adding any major game altering additions, Argos Naval Yard (ANY) seem to fill tiny gaps of what has been needed in SOTS for a while. Just what's to be expected of a DLC, balanced and useful additions to what already works.

Sword of the Stars Argos Naval Yard brings a slew of new tactical options to the already tumultuous Sword of the Stars universe, and will be a treat to fans both new and old. ANY also brings with it some upgrades to several of the particle effects - heavy beams have never looked so deliciously dangerous! Despite the addition of powerful new ship sections and weapons platforms, ANY doesn't feel forced - each of the new systems blend seamlessly into the current gameplay, and each has a definite purpose and utility. All in all, ANY is a must buy for anyone who owns the rest of the series - a beautiful cap stone for an excellent series!
