Developer Camel101 announces that it has launched the Kickstarter campaign for its Black Talons video game project, which aims to deliver a deep real-time tactics experience set in a new science fiction universe.

Gamers will take control of a mercenary company that’s taking on a variety of jobs as two might alliances clash. The aim is to make as much money as possible and survive the battles while keeping a high reputation with factions in the system.

Black Talons will offer a campaign mode that allows the player to determine the balance of power in a system and deal with a number of factions that can be friendly or hostile.

All squads are persistent and the player can customize their weaponry and their skills.

The Black Talons deploy from a battle cruiser that can also be upgraded with a variety of capabilities that support the operations of the mercenaries.

The team is aiming to get 100,000 dollars (76,000 Euro) from Kickstarter in order to fund development.
