You are the commander of a near-future aircraft carrier of immense power, with many tools and vehicles at your disposal. Landing in an unfamiliar, free-roaming environment, exploration will be key and the thrill of discovery will spur you onward.

The colony planetoid of Taurus is a pivotal battleground in the United Earth Coalition (UEC)’s long campaign against the rogue Asian Pacific Alliance (APA), who gained dominion over Earth in an apocalyptic conflict. The wide oceans of Taurus are dotted with resource-rich islands of varying composition and hiding many secrets.

A terraformed environment of extremes, from arid sands to verdant forests, the island-dotted oceans of Taurus are an ever-changing contrast of intense danger and vivid beauty. Battles rage across glacial plains and atop rocky mountains, delve into gloomy swamps or skirt volcanic atolls. Weather shifts from moment to moment. Ash and red haze fills the air, blizzards buffet your hull, wild electrical storms wreak havoc with navigation. Heat haze from a blinding sun, dust vortexes whipped up by gravitational pull, or a stark, still moonless night to chill the bone -- anything is possible on Taurus.

History:

In 2008, the original Carrier Command celebrated its 20th Anniversary. Many long-time gamers already know and love the game, but the Gaea Mission will thrust it into the spotlight once more. Here you can reflect on days past, when a flickery monitor and a dodgy 5.25" disk were the best friends a gamer could have.

And for those who are new to the Carrier Command experience, witness the impact it had upon release - one which Carrier Command: Gaea Mission is set to replicate.
