Holding a monopoly on space travel, guilds are the arteries of trade in a vast galaxy. Nations rely on you to transport produced resources to prosperous foreign markets and provide them with desperately needed rare resources. Make ruthless deals for maximum profits and establish automated profitable trade routes to keep the gears of galactic industry profitably grinding for your benefit. Design and command customized fleets of bulky cargo freighters, fearsome war armadas, stealthy special operations fighters, and prestigious luxury flagships. Fleets can be modified in a endless range of configurations allowing for the perfect response to any problem a Guild needs to solve. Not all battles must be fought with a heavy hand, command spy missions to undermine your rivals, turn ally against ally, shutdown vital industries, and cause unrest in the population of your enemies without a trace. On the way to galactic domination it helps to have powerful friends. Forge mutually beneficial relationships with useful allies owning industries on their planets, fighting in their wars, protecting their trade lanes, and above all keeping the flow of resources efficient and prosperous for both their citizens and your coffers Orbital infantry can only invade under the artillery cover and safe transportation of mighty war flotillas. Assist your national allies with critical logistics, while crushing your space-faring rivals on the mighty hulls of your war armadas. Ruthlessly bombard enemy planets to soften up military targets for conquest and keep your allies well supplied with military goods to keep up the fight until victory is assured.
