Online Game Based on Weber's Honor Harrington


The website for Honorverse: The Online Game has just launched.

The game is based on David Weber's Honor Harrington series of books and allows players to design and build space stations and fleets of ships, implement battle tactics, optionally set economic policies, and more. You can even create your own flags, insignia and national anthem.

The game itself is not due until the Fall of 2008. For now, check out the game's trailer.

I hope they get a better trailer up soon, that one made me thing of The Last Starfighter, which is not a good thing when it comes to CGI (although a great thing when it comes to movies! :) )

I have been waiting years for this. Honor Harrington is my favourite series of all time. Please take your time and do it right.
And you'll have me as a star nation forever.

Do the star nations in the book exist for interaction in the game?
