I've played it in 1993. My favorite features were using nukes and crazy autopilot. The battle lasted only a few seconds, and this is what I expect of space battle simulators. No stupid dogfights.

I had a cd that came with this game and the original Civilization waaay back in the day.

The version with the laser cannon is the enhanced Multimedia PC edition, which also had the digital sound upgrade preinstalled.

Strange.
I had a different version on CD that had laser cannon ingame.
This one has proximity mines instead.
Laser cannon fits better IMHO, quite resourceful when I run out of missiles.
