The story is nice, although I agree the grammar could really use some work...
Nice artwork, nice gameplay, nice variety of units. All in all a good if not too original game.
Reviews for "Squadron Auriga"
nice game
good time waster.. unfortunately i didn't finish the campaign.. got bored.. different story line but same old same old..
tried different units.. only units i saw fit is the human robot.. rocket infantry is next best, well those 2 are the only things i see useful.. human robot shoots ground and air and does a rocket attack.. 2-4 of them is sufficient enough..
dominance game was great.. took me on the 5th turn to understand the game..
tip on dominance :
- don't just press end turn to gain cash.. enemies will get stronger if untouched..
- tesla, catapult and gun tower lvl1 is enough to defend your base.. don't need to control them.. if you want place some 2 units of any kind..
- farm farm farm.. i left the game for hours.. got 100k+ to spend.. there, you wont have any problem upgrading anything..
- if you want to speed up the farm get the crate thing.. cost 50 only but every box is a lot.. dunno if its more if the buildings upgraded..
its possible to finish dominance game without ending any turn..
some of the shortcut keys are useless btw..
Fine but a little boring.
Meh
I didn't like it. The gameplay was ok, and so were the graphics but it was really easy up until the sniper level which seems to be impossible. I'm sure someone else has beaten it, but I couldn't seem to use the sniper support option to kill the commander and when I tried to bring the unit out to kill him, he died because he doesn't shoot fast enough to kill the enemy units and my tower couldn't cover him that far away. but my two major problems are:
1) the grammar
2) the story
The problem with grammar is obvious, so let's skip that.
For one thing the story is kinda hole-y. Why would we freeze a commander of the military in cryo for making a mistake? Why don't the generals command there own bloody army? Isn't that the generals job in the first place?
You totally lost me when it came to why we were occupying the planet in the first place. Apparently these "aliens" have a collective soul which is also some kind of power source. So as I understand it, we're there to kill them all (even though they're clearly of a higher-order intelligence), then steal there souls so we can power our machines and go out to conquer more planets so we can live on them because we scourged 75% of ours. And the "Aliens" are the monsters? Am I the only one to see parallels between this and half the sci-fi stories out there? only difference is it's normally the Earth under attack. The aliens are still the monsters in those stories though. Must be the inherent sense of self-entitlement in humans that makes it ok.
I can't give you a zero because the rest of the game is ok, but I'd consider rethinking what you've said here. Oh, and go watch "doctor who" and pick up the book "Enders Game", maybe then you'll understand where I'm coming from.

OMG the grammar!!
Um... there is no way to win the sniper level. The sniper cant get through the enemy units on his own to get to the commander, please fix this!
Other than that it is an awesome game, but the grammar just makes my head hurt.
