Some news on a new game being published by Codemasters in conjunction with 1C and being developed by KD Labs.

As quoted from the game section on Codies website:

"Perimeter is a ground breaking real-time strategy game which brings, a range of fresh ideas to the RTS genre. Use strategic Terraforming to acquire resources, project a impenetrable perimeter force shield to protect from attack and marshal your forces though manipulation of nano-technology.

These key gameplay elements deliver a new challenging and rewarding experience for single and multiplayer.

Perimeter is set in a universe where the earth is dying and multiple civilisations are in a race across a newly discovered galaxy to colonise the only suitable planet. This epic journey will involve exploring many new worlds, battling against other civilisations and indigenous species, all to acquire energy to continue the search for a new home.



TERRAFORMING
For the first time in RTS history the player by strategically manipulating the environment can extract energy, expand their base, increase their territory and limit their opponents options. The condition of the landscape can be changed completely by a number of influences including special units, explosions and natural geological processes.

PERIMETER FORCE SHIELD
A impenetrable force shield can be raised once the necessary buildings have been constructed, and the players energy reserves last. The force shield protects the player from virtually all attack, and allows for a number of defensive and offensive strategies to be executed.

NANOTECHNOLOGY
Units can be transformed into different units on the battlefield, giving the player powerful tactical opportunities to adapt combat units to a particular situation. Not all unit’s will be effective in all situations and base unit’s must be built tactically, either to focus on a sole function or to be adaptable."

Gah, be quiet senile old man! :P

The terraforming part sounds pretty kool

But the Nanotech part sounds...abit off, seens i thaught Nanotech was splitting atoms (or cutting them down) to bring them closer to gether, this making the the thing stronger, but thinner

What is nanotechnology:
Any fabrication technology in which
objects are designed and built by the specification and
placement of individual atoms or molecules or where at least
one dimension is on a scale of nanometers.

The first unequivocal nanofabrication experiments took place
in 1990, for example with the deposition of individual xenon
atoms on a nickel substrate to spell the logo of a certain
very large computer company.

Nanotechnology has been a hot topic in the hacker subculture
ever since the term was coined by K. Eric Drexler in his book
"Engines of Creation", where he predicted that nanotechnology
could give rise to replicating assemblers, permitting an
exponential growth of productivity and personal wealth.

Well, this is a fun subject. Used to talk about it all the time back then when Syndicate and Shadowrun was on top. :dennis:
