Checked out the site, read the game description and viewed the movie.  Looks 
promising (but then they all do, don't they?).  Follows the rule that no 
space-sim shall any longer be developed west of Germany.  The developer is 
Croatian, but the game's done in English....so no waiting for a translation. 
Supposedly JoWood will have it out "2Q 2007" (Hey, that's right now).

The first Space Force was an arcade game, same developer (I guess), but 
different publisher.
