Description : The Netrek Vanilla Server.
This Package provides the Vanilla Netrek Server.
Netrek is the probably the first video game which can accurately be
described as a "sport." It has more in common with basketball than with
arcade games or Quake. Its vast and expanding array of tactics and
strategies allows for many different play styles; the best players are
the ones who think fastest, not necessarily the ones who twitch most
effectively. It can be enjoyed as a twitch game, since the dogfighting
system is extremely robust, but the things that really set Netrek apart
from other video games are the team and strategic aspects. Team play is
dynamic and varied, with roles constantly changing as the game state
changes. Strategic play is explored in organized league games; after
more than six years of league play, strategies are still being invented
and refined.
