Info:

The game is set on a fictional Mars colony in the year 2137. Humans have discovered a "remarkable energy source" by the name of Petra-7 on the red planet. Figuring they'd rather not choke on the atmosphere of Mars whilst mining this precious stuff, the Humans begin terraforming the planet and by the time the game starts the project has produced jungles and deserts habitable by people. All seems to be going well, until the Taar show up. The Taar are aliens (the ones from the Roswell incident no less) from a scattered and dying race looking for a new homeworld, and Mars seems to fit the bill. Before they can move in though, they have to get rid of those pesky Humans.

The game consists of two campaigns where you can either play as the Humans, commanding a colonization force from Pan Luma Industries (one of the Earth corporations along with Aerogen and Stratus who are in charge of the Mars project) whose goal is defend against and defeat the alien threat, or as the Grays, where you have to defeat the Human presence on Mars and claim it for your own.

I remember this game. It was quite fun.

Itn't this the game with the really cool "S.A.R.G.E." unit in it?

Only down side it it can get very annoying to play, as the units are a bit unbalenced.

yea it has a unit called S.A.R.G.E .The most expensive unit actually.
I dont think the units in it are unbalenced .They are just sort of same.

Downloading..
Do i need to do anything after the download or is an .exe file?

Nevermind. the .exe files are in the folder.
just finished the download.
