Time was growing short, and the fightercraft pilot in his Dervish

wasn't expecting to be living much longer. The Bogie was locked

tight on his tail, and the particle beams were getting closer and

closer. The situation called for a last ditch effort. Cutting in his

lateral thrusters, the Dervish pilot punched in orders to slow

forward movement, and used his attitude jets to swing his nose

60" to port. The trick worked. The Bogie's pilot, anticipating

another maneuver, shot past the Dervish. The target computer

onboard the Dervish flashed "RANGE TO TARGET: 75m.

RANGE OPTIMUM". That was the last mistake the Bogie's

pilot would ever get a chance to make ...

This is SIGMA OMEGA, a game in which players maneuver

baseships and fightercraft using a three dimensional system con-

sistent with all aspects of Newtonian Mechanics. Included in the

Tactical Game are rules on launches/landings, missiles, pilot

skill, gravity, combat "G's", sophisticated maneuvering techniques,

and examples of some proven fightercraft maneuvers, just to name

a few. Players may use anyone of the scenarios included in the

game, or design one of their own. But the adventure doesn't

stop there.

SIGMA OMEGA is two games in one. In the second game, the Campaign, it isn't good enough just to be a skilled

tactical commander, for the game places you as the leader of an empire, in which you must prove your skills in many

versatile and critical roles. First, as the Strategic Commander, you must marshal your forces, organize them, and

schedule their flight plans. You must determine your empire's strategy, deciding what facilities, and how and where

to provide for conquest and defense. As the Diplomat, you must arrange and negotiate the agreements that will

allow for the overthrow of enemies, and establish your superiority. As the Chief of Production, you decide how your

available resources will be allocated and spent, who will be trained, what new technologies to be developed, and what

ships to design and produce. All these skills you must master in addition to tactical ones in order to provide for your

victory in the Campaign.
