Love this game. Love it a lot. Played it too many times to count now. This Gog version works pretty well, although there certainly are some glitches. I personally can never get around the crashing on auto battle bug, but regular saving makes it doable. Its really a 4X game, not an RTS, but with the added awesomeness of controlling Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Darth Vader, and every original trilogy character you can think of, as well as all the recognisable worlds, and of course the great sound track. The reason I give it only 4 stars for me is the one massive weakness of the game, the AI. Once you get to know the play a little, it is IMPOSSIBLE to lose. I play it on hardest setting, and give the computer a head start of 200 days and I still win every time, just employing some really basic tactics. The AI is utterly dimwitted and completely predictable. Wont be an issue on first few playthroughs but becomes more problematic as you get to know the game more. A real shame, because other than that, the mechanics are very clever, deep enough to be very interesting and provide lots of ways to engage the enemy, but not too deep to overwhelm or become tedious. If the AI were better it would be almost endlessly replayable.
