unforgiving future.

Shadow Empire is one of the most ambitious games VR Designs has ever made. It is
a rich experience and a truly unique game. One that is unlike any you have ever
experienced before.

from your Leaders or from third parties such as cults and crime syndicates. You
can also use your available Stratagems to create new opportunities and enhance
your Nation. You will be able to optimize every aspect of your rule.
Recruit Leaders and appoint them to become zone governors, council directors,
army commanders or advisors. Leaders can have over 40 different skills and can
receive Leader feats to augment their statistics.
Install a parliament, senate or politburo in your nation and change the
machinery of your government over the course of a game.
Engage with your neighbours on the diplomatic front: Minor regimes can be
coerced to become vassals. Major regimes can be tied down with pacts and deals,
ensuring a peaceful coexistence or you can use your spies to manipulate their
politics and reveal their military forces.
Attempt to manage the expectations of your people and your leaders. There is a
strong role-playing and human dynamics element to Shadow Empire. If you are not
careful in their management, you may have to deal with discontent, strikes,
corruption or even all out rebellion.
Shadow Empire has specialized procedural design that ensures high replayability
and allows vast experimentation. It is not just the planets that are
procedurally generated, your equipment, vehicles, leaders, location and more are
variable.
Explore procedurally generated planets that follow the rules of Astrobiology.

deep forests, alien evolutions, mountain chains, resources, rivers, biohazard
levels, respiratory hazard levels and more.
Exploit the planet with a huge variety of mining operations: Water, metal, rare
metals, oil and even radioactive materials. Prospecting is often necessary for
discovering resources that could be mined and you‘ll need to scavenge through
the ruins of fallen empires and discover rare artifacts from a lost age.
There is also a separate system for discovery of technology, formations and
units. Your Research and development path is different every game and this
ensures that the route to success is different every time, too.
Explore 150+ stratagems and deploy them as you see fit.
Stratagems are complete plans and series of actions that allow you to complete
vast swathes of micromanagement tasks simply and easily. This system can also
help you respond quickly to a crisis or unforeseen situation.
Discover and design 30+ different unit types such as light tanks, walkers,
missile launchers and much more. Design your units to fit the needs of your
army, choose their loadouts, balance speed and armor and create the exact land
and air forces that your nation needs. Shadow Empire comes with over 100
different formation types, deploy Infantry regiments, Siege Battalions, Tank
Divisions and so much more.
Fight battles with detailed combat resolution taking into account factors as
readiness, morale, supply, experience, entrenchment, landscape, recon, rivers,
weapon and armor technologies, concentric attacks, leader skills and posture
stratagems.
Discover and research over 100 different fields of technology.
The game starts at a low level of technology as your nation drags itself out of
the ruins of a galactic collapse, but at the end of the tech tree you’ll find
knowledge that allows you to build exciting technologies such as ICBMs, laser
guns, atomic missile launchers, walkers, shield-generators and more.
