As a result, in skirmish or multiplayer games Steele has a special bonus to damage solely against Celareons. Due to differing factions within the mechanical-energy race there becomes a hostile Celareon faction, and Admiral Steele's career garners him more experience in warfare against Celareons than any other Admiral. For example, Admiral Steele enters the campaign at around the same time the Terrans meet and form an alliance with the Celareons. When a Leader is joined with a fleet, every ship in the fleet is given at least a 10% bonus to supply, damage, speed, etc., and usually depending on the Leader's flagship in the Terran campaign, an additional 10% bonus is given to certain ships in the fleet for all statistics.Īll Leaders are different, and give a 25% bonus instead of the standard 10% bonus to certain statistics depending on their flagship and their role in the campaign.
Entire squadrons of other ships can be grouped with an Admiral shuttle this endows the Admiral's combat bonuses upon the entire fleet and allows the player to better control their forces. In single-player skirmish and multiplayer games, Admirals act essentially as leader units ( Warlords for Mantis and Magistrates for Celareons). For this reason, players usually cannot maintain the momentum of their assaults in enemy-controlled systems unless their fleet is accompanied by supply vessels.Ĭonquest features a number of Admirals in the single-player campaign, which function similarly to hero units. Ships with fully depleted supply stores are completely ineffective except as cannon fodder until they return to a supply base for resupply. Supplies play a vital part in offensive operations, as each ship carries only a limited amount of supplies, which are depleted as weapons and special devices are used. īases can be constructed on any discovered planet in any system, but would not be operable until a wormhole connecting that system to a friendly one was locked with a jumpgate or until a friendly Headquarters, Cocoon (Mantis) or Acropolis (Celareon) was constructed in the system. On December 9, 2013, the source code was bundled with every copy of the game purchased on GOG.com. Once Microsoft purchased Digital Anvil, Eric Peterson and Tom Mauer left to form Fever Pitch Studios Inc, and lead a team to complete the game as originally intended by the team.
A good amount of the development was done at Digital Anvil in Austin, Texas, a startup developer originally owned by Chris Roberts, Erin Roberts, Eric Peterson, John Miles, Tony Zurovec, Marten Davies and Robert Rodriguez.
Conquest: Frontier Wars is a real-time strategy game released in 2001 by Ubi Soft and developed by Fever Pitch Studios.
