I moved your post to the Games section, as I thought it would receive better attention there. I hope this was OK.

Hello . I play galaxy on fire 2 quite often. I've got roughly 100 hours invested in it. It's a great game! And they just recently released the expansion to it, Valkyrie, which continues the story directly after beating the main story. It adds ships, new systems, and lots of new upgrades along with several other goodies I'd rather not spoil . You should definitely check out galaxy on fire 2.

You plant mining robots on them. You will get payed every so many turns.

Check out Traveller-AR, there is a beta coming soon. I am really looking forward to the trading aspect of that game (It is kind of like EVE but on the iPad). Going to try Galaxy on Fire 2 while I wait for the release though!

sounds interesting. thanks for the info.
GOF didn't grab me in the free version but then
there isn't much you can do
cheers

If your looking for a modern remake of elite check out What is Pioneer? | Pioneer
Currently there are win7 and mac versions and talk of an iPad one in the future.

What I'd like to see is a continuation of the Escape Velocity series.
