Space Empires V is the next installment of a series of space trading strategies. Due to the fact that the predecessor is already a very old and strongly archaic product, the authors made every effort to make the next title aroused great interest, both among long-time fans of the series, as well as among players who have not yet had contact with the vast world of Space Empires.
