Space plane games


I was excited about Crying Suns, a roguelike tactics game set in a mysterious (clone amnesia) sci-fi universe.
...
Crying Suns features an episodic, cohesive story with random/procedural battles and encounters serving as window dressing.

The main game mechanic is the space battles. From the screenshots it looks like space chess; there are hexes with combatants and lots of HUD widgetry. Alas, Crying Suns space battles are tedious and not particularly tactical.
