Merchant Empires
Merchant Empires is a free, browser based multi-player game of space exploration, trade and combat. Choose from one of five detailed races--the warrior Mawlor, the merchant Vinoan, the scientist Paragon, the secretive Xollian, or the insectoid Zyck'lirg. Play alone, or in alliances with up to one hundred other players. Be a trader, or a warrior. Build up your own small area, or be an empire-builder. Be a lone wolf, or be a Fleet Commander. Explore a vast galaxy, with hundreds of star systems and thousands of planets. Build a base of operations; buy and sell almost fifty different types of goods to create and control trade routes; establish a centre for scientific and weapons research. Pilot one of almost one hundred ships in fleet warfare; co-ordinate attacks on rival bases; mine up space lanes; or prowl through deep space on the hunt for enemy warships.
