Yeah, why the hell not? In any case, one thing that games of this era love to do is make references, and Captain Tuf, funnily enough, is most likely one of them! Specifically, Haviland Tuf, of Tuf Voyaging, by George R R Martin. You want to watch out for that one, Captain Beeblebrox, I don't think he's to be trusted!

If it were any other captain's name, I'd go with one of the serious choices... but under these circumstances, it can only be: The Empire of Beeblebrox

The Empire because then we get Star Destroyers right and play the Imperial March every time we encounter something else.

I forgot how good music is in this game. And voting for The Empire of Beeblebrox.

In that case, I think Concordance and Empire are currently tied for the vote. How exciting!

Concordance of Alien Nations is the only choice with an acronym that forms a word, and therefore the one with maximum puntential.

Empire, none of this pansy concordance or alliance stuff - time to go all Genghis Khan on these Ur-Assholes (and presumably the rest of the galaxy). Never played this game (but something similar on the Mega Drive, can't recall the name though), the set-up seems pretty perfect for this sort of game.

I want to go with the Concordance of Weirdos so we can see how the slave guy reacts... but man, Empire Beeblebrox feels much more appropriate.

No, you started out on a rather ordinary lookning space station with a piece-of-poo poo white ship that may have looked somewhat like a penis - you could land on planets (to hilarious results of their gravity was too high) and drive around some sort or rover and mine stuff. There was also combat. All rather similar to this game here, but with more modern 2D graphics. You had to buy fuel and could pretty easily run out too...

This game has indeed been described as a spiritual successor to Starflight.
