Emperor of the Fading Suns Enhanced DEMO is available here



Now available as Emperor of the Fading Suns Enhanced!

Emperor of the Fading Suns has continued to inspire players not just because of the game itself, but because of the many great mods fans made for the game. The focus of the 1.5 patch is to greatly enhance modding capabilities. Expect many more great mods for the game.

One of the most dramatic changes is one of the least seen. The game was initially built using the Watcom development environment, and one of the first things we had to do was migrate it to Visual Studio. Additionally, the 1.5 patch adds:

  • Significantly enhanced and added significant modding capabilities. This allows modders to add dramatically more units, technologies, and worlds, and even change game facets like excommunication, sect abilities, ruins, and much more;
  • Significant enhancements to the map editor;
  • Enhanced role of religious sects, impacting your unit abilities and population loyalties;
  • Enhanced player information on unit and city screens;
  • Added House strength as a factor in diplomacy;
  • Streamlined some interface elements; and
  • Fixed a wide variety of bugs.

You can find the full changelog here.




It is the dawn of the sixth millennium and the skies are darkening, for the suns themselves are fading. Humans reached the stars long ago, building a Republic of high technology and universal emancipation—and then squandered it, fought over it, and finally lost it.

A New Dark Age has descended upon humanity, for the greatest of civilizations has fallen and now even the stars are dying. Feudal lords rule the Known Worlds, vying for power with fanatic priests and scheming guilds.

A grand 4X strategy game developed by Holistic Design Inc., Emperor of the Fading Suns is set in the Dark Ages of Space. It allows players to take the role of one of the powerful nobles fighting to become Emperor of the Known Worlds. Similar to such strategy classics as Civilization and Masters of Orion, Emperor of the Fading Suns offers a sophisticated diplomacy engine, space and ground combat, discovery of new planets, multi-player (Internet) competition and more. While rushed to market, it built a loyal following and spawned numerous, unofficial fan-made mods.

In 4550 AD, Vladimir I, the first Emperor of the Known Worlds, crowned himself with his own hands and by the Grace of Holy Terra. He was dead within moments. The Regency is vacant and all humanity is preparing to elect a new Regent. But times are changing.

The mysterious fading of all the suns of the Known Worlds is accelerating, causing increased hardship and a general sense of foreboding. The Fading Suns are a portent, it is said, of coming Armageddon.

Each of the Royal Houses can trace its ancestry to the time of Grand Emperor Vladimir, who consolidated the fragments of the Second Republic into one might Imperium. As ordered by the Great Charter, in the event of an Emperor's death, human space was to be ruled by an interim Regent. However, no Regent has been able to harness enough power to declare himself Emperor. In the meanwhile, the Regency has become a means to loot the Imperium.

Many feel that the human race needs strong, dedicated leadership to face the uncertain future - a selfless leader willing to take a personal interest in the fate of the Imperium. But the Regent has been a mere figurehead, who can at most discourage inter-human conflict. Humanity's only solution is to make the position of Regent a hereditary one, to once again have it called by its ancient name - Emperor. Then the future of the entire Empire will be the overriding concern of the Emperor, instead of just the short-sighted good of his own House.

Can you lead your noble house, be it selfless Hawkwood, debauched Decados, scheming al-Malik, pious Li Halan or militant Hazat, to final victory? Will you return humanity to its once-shining glory? Dare you to become Emperor of the Fading Suns?

Loved it for years and now it's updated!

I have played this game for years, on and off. Always thought it deserved a sequel. Well the enhanced version is an update, not a sequel, but it feels like a new game. This is a turned based 4X strategy game set in the Fading Suns universe. The resource management is complex enough to be challenging, but not to the point of becoming onerous. The same is true for the technology development. Combat is relatively simple, but rewarding. I am not an unbiased reviewer, I have loved and played this game for decades at this point. I highly recommend it.

One hell of a game.

Whew... This is a game. Like most the folks who have reviewed this on release day I'm one of those who played it back in the day. Steam only shows like an hour and a half, but that's not even counting the 6 or 7 hours I racked up in the demo last week and I couldn't even save nevermind the hours I have sunk into it over the years. Emperor of the Fading Suns can be a bit of an overwhelming game. I think the best way to explain it is to just say how it plays, so I'll try. It starts out as a weird little hex based wargame where you take cities from grey coloured units with what look like WW2 tanks on some random planet while wondering what the heck is going on with the galaxy map and why you have a star cruiser in orbit. You're not entirely sure why you are researching psychosocial engineering, but it sounds neat. Then by the time you figure out the basics of combat on your homeworld you suddenly get thrown into an election for Regent. Somehow, now you are also in charge of something called the "Stigmata Garrison" and now control a bunch of other dudes on a different planet fighting against alien pod people... oh, and their kit is way cooler than what you have. Some of these guys even have Power Armour and some big scary looking tanks too. Maybe you could yoink a few of them... Stomp the rebels a bit quicker. You keep plugging away, using your starships to start ferrying your troops to another planet, building labs and factories and other stuff on your homeworld. You figure this regent job sounds pretty cool so you offer stuff to the other houses in exchange for votes. While all this is going on you continue to expand, researching new tech, pumping your troops full of combat drugs, building fancy new tanks, that sort of stuff. Eventually you are compressing crystals into fusion cores and making singularities so you can build new starships. You go to war with the Hazat and steal the scepters that they need to vote with. Then you declare yourself Emperor...

My all-time favorite.

Tell me where you can find a game anywhere else that you can research forbidden technologies to turn corpses into super soldiers, go to war with the church, your competing houses and both alien menaces at once and then reconquer earth and capture and convert a church inquisitor in lost-tech battle armor to lead your Grimson Legions. It has warts no doubt, but the scale and richness of the game is enormous. This game needs a reboot, and truly deserves it.

One of a kind

The game features a compelling setting, serving as a prequel to the TTRPG Fading Suns. It shares similarities with Dune and Warhammer 40k, portraying an era of space feudalism in which five great houses compete for power alongside the merchant league, all overseen by a seemingly monolithic Universal Church. Besieged by rebels and the abominable Symbiots, trapped in what appears to be a galactic stalemate with the other houses, the player, embodying a noble house, must navigate their way to claiming regency then the Imperial throne. All the while, the initially friendly Merchant League builds up its forces to declare its rule over the Third Republic, and the Church enforces the technological restrictions imposed on the houses. This game features numerous moving parts and operates on a large scale. Players begin from a single planet and expand into a sector of space with dozens of planets. For each planet, players must carefully industrialize and maintain their rule, on that scale the way it plays is not too dissimilar Civilization II. Another dimension of gameplay is space travel. Initially, jumpdrive-equipped spaceships are a rare commodity not to be wasted, as they enable the transport of troops, personnel, and cargo from one system to another through the mythical Jumpgates linking one planet to another. Byzantium II, the capital planet, Here, nobles from the various houses, under a ceasefire, periodically gather to cast their votes for the Regency. The political landscape is fraught with intrigue and backstabbing; eliminating an opponent's noble prevents them from participating in the vote. Assassinating all of the opposing nobles can also serve as a potential victory condition. When it comes to the game's drawbacks and unrealised potential, it's the AI. It's incapable of making good decisions and may be prone to be exploited. It also doesn't adhere to the same logistical limitations as the players. Additionally, the game's interface is understandably archaic.

It runs on Wine

This used to be a nightmare to install - one of the worst ever. You needed patches, and there were different versions of them. The GOG installer worked out of the box with Xubuntu 20.04, PlayOnLinux 4.3.4, Wine 6.0.1 - no 'Installed Components'. Nvidia 970GTX with the proprietary 390 legacy driver. So I would say it deserves the Linux-Compatible tag. As to the game, I found it online in around 2005 and haven't played it as much as others but would second all the people saying it should be professionally tidied-up and reissued. This GOG release could have done with a note to say exactly what version it is - iirc there were official patches that needed to be applied, and these addressed (serious) technical issues and then you would choose a fan-patch for game balance.
