its more 4X than RTS imo... Kind of like a mix of Master of Orion with a bit of Starcraft-lite in there (or the space combat in Star Wars: Empire at War). Its super fun, just enough micro with the capital ships while the game as a whole is more about overarching 4X style strategy.
Impulse price matched down to 50$ also it looks like... sucks if you bought it earlier today otherwise it makes sense if you already have DoW2 or Saints Row 2.
Impulse also has STO for pre-order with the bonus of 500 Cryptic points (like Atari)... Along with the standard and deluxe edition stuff, worth mentioning right now because Impulse Now has a 5% off anything coupon that will work on STO.
If you have Impulse Now (the tray icon thing) it just popped up a 5% off anything storewide coupon. Check it out here.
I think this is for your whole order too, not just one item.
