Director of Solar Affairs CD Key

Director of Solar Affairs

Take command as the Director of Solar Affairs, the highest authority of a world power’s space program. From 1935 onward, guide your nation through decades of warfare and scientific discovery, building a unique space fleet and shaping the destiny of humanity across the solar system, from Mercury to Jupiter.

Your arena is a turn-based strategy with orbital combat on a hex-grid map. Each strategic turn advances a month, letting you manage research, construction, exploration, and supply lines outside of battle while fleets maneuver through space. Strategic decisions ripple through politics, economy, and technology as you push your nation toward orbital dominance.

Design, build, and maintain space warships, scientific vessels, and support ships. Freely design ships with over 10 classes—from nimble destroyers to massive battleships—and equip them with nearly 20 types of weapons and systems, including missiles, railguns, sensors, propulsion, and life-support. Your fleets carry the mark of your nation’s character: distinct ship designs, equipment, and operational doctrines for the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, the Soviet Union, or Japan.

Budget, funding, and progression: Hold annual budget meetings to allocate resources between construction, maintenance, and research. Direct funds to sustain long campaigns, fund research programs, and expand shipyards. Invest in technology to unlock higher-performance equipment and entirely new classes of vessels, pushing capabilities in propulsion, defense, targeting, and exploration tech to the limit. Balance resource extraction, maintenance cycles, and diplomacy to maintain stability across your realm.

Explore alien planets to uncover discoveries of strategic or scientific value. Run independent scientific expeditions, harvest alien data, and interpret planetary anomalies. Build and maintain transport fleets and off-world supply lines to keep your flotilla supplied on long campaigns. Exploration outcomes influence research priorities, open new options for expansion, and reshape your strategic map.

Engage in decisive space fleet battles of varying scales against rival nations as needed. Expect a dynamic experience with random events shaping your career—military engagements, scientific breakthroughs, political upheavals, and unexpected crises that test leadership and adaptability. Your performance raises your career rating and writes a personal history of space expansion.

From early 1,000-ton destroyers armed with conventional cannons to tens of thousands-ton battleships, your fleets evolve with the era. Forge a personal space epic through your choices, watching as technology, exploration, and strategy intertwine to define a lasting legacy of solar expansion.
