Fragile Allegiance

Online version of Fragile Allegiance for PC DOS. Fragile Allegiance is a 4X real-time strategy set in deep space, released in 1996 by Gremlin Interactive for MS-DOS and Windows 95. The game is essentially a modernised remake of the Amiga title K240 (1994, Celestial Software) – the same mechanics ported into a PC environment with improved graphics, isometric viewpoints, and a far more sophisticated diplomacy system. The player takes on the role of a manager of the megacorporation TetraCorp, deployed to the Fragmented Sectors with orders to build asteroid mining colonies and, against the backdrop of six competing alien races, secure dominance for the corporation. The game is known as the first title to use Gremlin Interactive's facial motion capture technology, which gave its alien ambassadors a distinctively lifelike presence during diplomatic exchanges.

IBM PC with MS-DOS

Online emulated version of Fragile Allegiance was originally developed for the IBM PC and compatible computers, with MS DOS - Microsoft Disk Operating System. It is an OS for x86-based personal computers mostly developed by Microsoft and released in 1981 as PC DOS 1.0.
MS-DOS was targeted at Intel 8086 processors running on computer hardware using floppy disks to store and access not only the operating system, but application software and user data as well. Progressive version releases delivered support for other mass storage media in ever greater sizes and formats, along with added feature support for newer processors and rapidly evolving computer architectures. Ultimately, it was the key product in Microsoft's development from a programming language company to a diverse software development firm, providing the company with essential revenue and marketing resources. It was also the underlying basic operating system on which early versions of Windows ran as a GUI.
