    Right. Now, please, an Expanse space sim where I can pilot the ships and engage in battles. Because that was the best part of the show.

      Omg yes. I have no idea how it would work, I’m imagining turn based combat since it’s ttrpg based, but i want it so badly.

        No turn based. Full-on hardcore space sim with 100% realistic physics and weapons systems similar to Independence War, Hunternet and DCS. Or, put in another way—Orbiter with guns.

            If you want kind-of turn based realistic tactical space combat sim, check out Children of a Dead Earth. It’s the closest thing to The Expand space ship game.

      Those streams of projectiles like deadly tentacles flailing around the ships are incredible. Would love a game that could replicate that.
