Star Chamber was great

[extra the woos]

until they nerfed stuff because of what the "uber players" wanted (for example, zhik were a cool race at first, and the card stasis missles was my ace in the hole...)

But they changed stasis missles to make it worthless, changed zhik to make them worthless, and left the *REALLY* powerful cards like infinity drive untouched!! they are fucking retards...

... last time i played it it wasn't the same game it was when my friend and i started.. its a waste of cash now...play something else
