There are many parallels between the basic ideas of this game and many of the things we see going on with real UFOs. See Bob Lazar's website and how he describes the UFOs that he says are kept at Area 51. Also the fuel that is used to power these UFOs is similar to Elerium; it is claimed to be "Element 115", which is used to power their matter-antimatter engines.

The aliens in this game are similar to aliens that supposedly exist on Zeta Reticuli (the greys), and other solar systems not far from earth. There is no doubt whatsoever in my mind that the creators of this game built its basic premise upon things that are alleged to be going on in the real world. True or not, I cannot say for sure, but I can't rule it out completely.

Perhaps one of the best strategy games ever made. It still lives on my computer (Steam version) and it's still captivating despite its ancient graphics.

Doesn't work. Zip contains a folder with another zip in it. That zip contains only a .txt. Even D-Fend Reloaded couldn't find anything in it.
