What this is
The combat tutorial from Space Wars: Interstellar Empires, rebuilt for the browser. You command a single ship against training targets and then a live opponent, and learn the turn-based combat step by step: how to spend power, raise shields, scan, line up weapon arcs and repair damage.
Pick the Sol or the Genari path. Each takes a few minutes and plays like the tutorial in the game.
This is the start. The full game, with its five races, officers and the war for the galaxy, is on Steam.
