Alpha Centauri 2 is a fan site dedicated to one of the best 4x TBS games ever produced: Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri (also known as SMACSid Meier's Alpha Centauri). Released in 1999 by EA, the game was designed by Bryan Reynolds and Sid Meier, the creator of the Civilization series. The game is praised for its complex gameplay, the science fiction storyline and the immersive atmosphere created with in-game writing and voice acting. However, the sci-fi elements came somewhat second after the speculative vision of the future society elements. The player embarks himself on a transhuman journey and this ascent is depicted in a series of quotes and movies, giving remarkable depth to a genre normally impersonal and cold.

The main focus of this site is to build a friendly place for all Alpha Centauri players, a place where we can keep alive the legacy of the SMAC universe and, why not, dream of a long-awaited sequel.
