Diaspora

Diaspora is a 2012 space combat game developed by the Diaspora Development Team, inspired by the Battlestar Galactica universe and built using the FreeSpace 2 engine. Players take control of spacecraft in large-scale battles where positioning, weapons, teamwork, and situational awareness are considerably more useful than simply pointing at the nearest enemy and holding the trigger. The game places strong emphasis on cinematic space combat, with detailed ships and dramatic missions that capture the feel of a television space opera. For fans of classic space combat simulators, it offers a satisfying reminder that sometimes the best place to solve a military crisis is several thousand kilometers from the nearest planet.
