Since I am not a geek sci-fi fan I really never knew where certain parts of the game drew from (if they did).
Namely, I want to know about the following:
Star Swarm
Invaders
Jump points, ships and engines
Also, what would "jump points" be? Some sort of gravity well? And what would jump gates be, some kind of stable wormhole?
Unrelated, but Steve must've been bored as hell one day. He added a Hippy theme, it is honestly hilarious when you get attacked by a fleet of "Mountain Rain" class warships.
