1C Company announces Space Rangers HD: A War Apart, СНК-Games' upcoming re-master of the universe of Space Rangers 2: Rise of the Dominators and Space Rangers 2: Reboot that will include an all-new campaign. Release of the RPG/RTS/adventure hybrid remake is expected by the end of this year, and a preliminary Space Rangers: A War Apart Website is online. Here's word: MOSCOW, Russia - April 18, 2012 - Leading Eastern and Central European publisher, 1C Company, is proud to announce the development of Space Rangers HD: A War Apart. The legendary series returns, in full HD glory, and with new material offering a pirate's point of view with new gameplay. This title remasters the universe of Space Rangers 2: Rise of the Dominators and Space Rangers 2: Reboot and allows players to revisit those games or take part in a thrilling new story.
Space Rangers HD takes place in 3300AD. Our galaxy is invaded by the Dominators, combat robots that come under the influence of an alien technology. The player finds themselves in a living, breathing world where they can engage multiple activities: fight in space and hyperspace, buy and sell goods, accomplish government missions, liberate planets from the Dominators in 3D RTS battles and complete text adventures leading to unique plot twists and rewards. The game ending is not set and players may find a victory of either side at the end. Everything depends on the actions taken in this developing world where anybody can live the life of a pirate as well as that of a hero.
Space Rangers HD features a dynamic game world where the Balance of power between the Dominators and the Coalition can shift at any minute and can be tipped to either side by player actions. A wise criminal will wait before plundering the Coalition if it is losing the war. Additionally, the game has been updated including new upgrades for spaceships, new planetary battles, text quests and hyperspace engagements available to pirates and law abiding rangers. This enhanced edition brings full widescreen support up to 1920x1200 complete with updated graphics and interface. Subtle improvements like the ability to play hyperspace battles outside of the story mode help to provide the unique experience for which Space Rangers was revered.

But yeah, up until I skipped them those missions constituted the worst RTS bar none I've ever played, down to and including free Flash games. The only bonuses were something like money as I recall. And if you looked at the amount of time it took on an RTS mission to earn the given cash, you could do several other missions in that time and get far far more cash. Plus doing non RTS missions had the added bonus of not being bored out of your skull.
So no, I don't think there was anything important one actually missed out on doing that. My memory is fuzzy on the last mission, if one of those RTS missions was required or not for that, but I think it could still be skipped.
I'm eternally grateful they set it up as optional. Man if they had made those RTS missions required, ZOMG the game would have sucked and everyone would have hated it. They weren't in love with themselves so much they thought everyone would just love to do anything they did.
Incidentally, its a good lesson to learn. Stick with what you know and are good at. There were plenty of other far better RTS games out there. They should have avoided trying to tack that on entirely. Actually, now that I think of it, I wonder if the publisher forced them into adding that. It feels exactly like an add on that a publisher would force them into doing. "No one plays space whatever this is, RTS games are popular right now, make sure its got RTS in it!" So they threw it in, and made sure it was optional because they knew it didn't have anything to do with the core game.
