Flux Armada vs Irata

The Fleet, or your collection of ships, in Flux Armada is where Flux Armada gets its name. At any time, you can rearrange your Fleet to construct the optimal path for attacking Infiltrator units, or create a blocking section to prevent your Core Ship from taking direct hits. When it’s your turn, choose between cards in your hand that offer different capabilities of attack for different amounts of energy. If you pay its cost, you send out the Transport Orb with it inside. The other player has no idea what you selected, but they know they don’t want it! Watch out! Once your Transport Orb makes it out into the open space between fleets, it becomes anyone’s match in an escalating game of back and forth between the Guardians. Once the Transport Orb makes it past the Guardian’s defenses, it will collide with a ship within the Fleet. When a Transport Orb opens up, you can expect any number of nasty surprises like a HE BOMB or the release of Infiltrator assault units. Infiltrator units make their way through enemy fleet, taking the shortest path to the Core Ship. Once they reach the Core Ship, they’ll self-destruct against it in an attempt to take it down. Make sure to take out enemy Infiltrators, by creating a long path for them!

IRATA - Space Colony is a turn-based survival strategy game set on the frontier world Irata-2. Grow an off-world colony, balance production and trade, and survive as many turns as you can. There is no final victory—only how long you can last before the burden becomes too great. YOUR MISSION Build industry, feed your colonists, and keep credits in the black while upkeep climbs with population and time. Each run is a fresh attempt to beat your best survival record. EXPAND ON A HEX MAP The map centers on your Command Post. Claim adjacent plots to push your frontier outward. Farther plots cost more to maintain, so develop nearby land first. Six terrain types favor different industries—wetlands for food, dustplains for power, ironpeaks for ore, and more. MANAGE RESOURCES Track food, ore, energy, credits, and crystite from the HUD. Shortages cut output; energy cannot be traded and must be covered every turn. Trade food and ore on the local market—prices move with your buying and selling. Crystite is priced by off-world demand and becomes a steady income once essentials are secure. GROW YOUR WORKFORCE Population limits how many buildings you can staff. Strong food production drives growth; shortages stall expansion or shrink your colony. BUILD AND PLAN • Agri-Dome — food (upkeep: ore, energy) • Power Array — energy (upkeep: ore) • Drill Rig — ore (upkeep: ore, energy) • Crystite Extractor — crystite from surveyed deposits (upkeep: ore, energy, crystite) Survey crystite deposits before you build, or risk building blind. TURN-BASED PLAY Claim land, construct buildings, and trade during your turn, then tap NEXT TURN to resolve production, upkeep, and random events—from meteor strikes and supply drops to equipment failures and market shocks. HOW YOU LOSE • Credits fall below zero • Population stagnates or declines for too long Think ahead, expand wisely, and see how long Irata-2 will let you stay.
