About Annihilate The Spance
Annihilate The Spance is a real‑time strategy title that centers on a single‑player campaign. Players manage base building, economy, and continuous shipyard production while autonomous starships fight on their own initiative.
The game offers over 40 missions, a 3D battlefield with unrestricted height, skirmish matches against AI, and an in‑game level editor for creating and sharing custom scenarios.
01 / THE GUIDE
Autonomous Ship AI
Every starship runs its own intelligent AI, selecting targets and attacking without direct player commands. This design lets large fleets act collectively as new vessels join the fight.
Because individual units cannot be ordered, the player’s focus shifts to high‑level choices such as fleet composition, build timing, and positioning of shipyards.
- Watch how different ship classes prioritize enemies to guide your composition decisions.
- Mix smaller drones with larger capital ships to balance speed and firepower.
02 / THE GUIDE
Waypoint Chains
Players cannot directly steer individual ships, but they can place waypoint chains that determine where shipyards dispatch their fleets. These waypoints act as a strategic routing system.
Well‑placed waypoints can steer thousands of autonomous vessels around hazardous nebula zones and concentrate forces at key objectives.
- Create waypoints that guide ships around dangerous Spance phenomena.
- Use chained waypoints to funnel multiple fleets onto a single enemy position.

03 / THE GUIDE
Height Plane and 3D Battlefield
The game unlocks a height plane, allowing starships to move up, down, and around enemies. This adds a true three‑dimensional layer to engagements.
Vertical movement lets players exploit altitude differences, as enemy ships may engage differently depending on their own height relative to yours.
- Consider the altitude of enemy vessels when plotting waypoint routes.
- Experiment with high‑altitude approaches to see how enemy fire adapts.
04 / THE GUIDE
Campaign Structure
The single‑player campaign contains over 40 missions split among four interlinked storylines, each following a major faction and revealing new units and technologies.
Progress through the narrative uncovers the mysteries of the Spance while presenting battles that require different tactical approaches depending on the faction involved.
- Pay attention to each faction’s unique doctrines to broaden your strategic toolbox.
- Revisit earlier missions after unlocking new tech to discover alternative solutions.
05 / THE GUIDE
Level Editor and Skirmish Mode
Beyond the main story, players can jump into skirmish battles against AI opponents on custom maps, providing quick tactical challenges.
A full in‑game level editor lets users design, share, and play their own scenarios, extending replayability beyond the official missions.
- Test new fleet compositions in a custom skirmish before using them in campaign missions.
- Share your edited maps to see how other players tackle the same layout.
