<h2>About</h2>
<h3>Overview</h3>
</h4>
StariumXCV is browser based, high context, persistent massive multiplayer strategic role playing game set in the Milky Way galaxy. Players control and guide leaders, starships, military units and populations to rise from a remote agricultural colony that has been suddenly isolated from its home system to an interstellar empire which seeks answers and spreads its influence across the galaxy.
We have different galaxies, each one unique and evolving in its own fashion. Each galaxy hosts one instance of StariumXCV and is designed for between 3,000 to 5,000 active players. We will open up new galaxies on a regular basis. A player can only control one empire per galaxy.
