Starpoint Gemini Warlords

Space sim meets 4X strategy with RPG progression. You command a fleet and build a space station while carving out territory in the Gemini system. The A'Shriari wiped out humanity's home territory, forcing refugees through a reopened stargate into Gemini—where they're exiled to a harsh outer planet. Now you're expanding from that foothold. Station construction feeds into fleet production. Combat involves direct ship control plus fleet tactics. Between battles, you're mining, trading, salvaging, and researching tech upgrades. Companions join your flagship with unique abilities. Territory capture is gradual: secure sectors, establish strongholds, push borders. The blend means you're switching between piloting your capital ship in real-time fights and zooming out to manage empire-level decisions. Fans of hands-on space combat who also want the long-term build satisfaction of 4X will find both here.
