Nectaris
This version of Nectaris is an updated and expanded version of the original game with a new background story, an entirely different graphical style and lots of new content. It includes all maps (the setting of which has been changed from the Earth's moon to Triton) and units from the original game. Two new sets of maps (the Romulous and Pacifica campaigns) have been added for a total of 96 levels. There are also many new units, more than doubling the number of the original. The non-lunar settings of the new campaigns allow for naval units for the first time (including submarines and ship-based aircraft), as well as such units as helicopters, jump-jet infantry and paratroopers.

About This Game
The year is 2104, and the Solar Union — Earth's governing body across the solar system — faces its worst crisis in decades. Three former colonies, disguising their aggression as diplomacy, launch surprise attacks and occupy three strategically vital mining worlds: Neptune's moon Triton, the Earth-like planet Romulous, and the ocean world Pacifica. Earth's continued survival depends on taking them back. The player commands the full range of Earth's military forces — ground, air, and naval — across the campaign to recapture all three.
