What is AI War: Fleet Command?

After humanity loses a war to machines, you command its remaining fleets in a space-based real-time strategy game. You build ships, set up defenses and mining outposts, capture planets, and steal technology while trying to reach the AI cores without drawing its full attention.

Not for you if...
