ImSpartacus: /* What games are Empires Mod similar to? */

{{Sitenav|FAQ}}

== What is the best way to describe Empires Mod? ==
Empires Mod is a A Half-Life 2 [[Total Conversion]] that is best described as a [[RTS]]/[[FPS]] [[hybrid]], a blending of the two genres. Players may take to the front lines on foot, fighting their opponents directly, or command the faction in an [[RTS]]-style manner, building things and assigning orders.

== What games are Empires Mod similar to? ==
A similar ancestor mod from Half-Life 1 is [http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns/ Natural Selection]. Like Empires Mod, NS has building and a very strategical play style. However, its theme is much different and it also lacks vehicles.

Also similar are basically any sci-fi [[RTS]] games like Red Alert, Total Annihilation, Warzone 2100, etc. Noticable inspirations can be found in Empires Mod, such as the research tech tree and vehicle customization (Warzone 2100).

== How much does the mod cost? ==
It's completely free for [http://empiresmod.com/download.php Download].

== Who is currently developing the mod? ==
A complete team listing can be found on the [http://empiresmod.com/team.php Empires Mod Team page].
