About Fed Com Online

Come fly with us! Developed in cooperation with Amarillo Design Bureau, Inc., Federation Commander Online is a game service for Federation Commander players. Subscribers to Fed Com Online are able to play Federation Commander games 24/7 with other subscribers from around the world.

FCOL is designed to allow you to compete in an environment that emulates Face-to-Face play. However, the computer automates many functions and acts as your friendly assistant for many mundane tasks. There is no limit to the number of games you may play during your subscription period--well, except for your endurance. Our subscribers range in skill level from beginners to skilled aces.

Federation Commander Online will provide all required Federation Commander software and server connectivity for the basic subscription price. FCOL is not an Internet service provider (ISP). To use FCOL you will need to have an account with an ISP or some other means to access the Internet.

With limited exceptions, the software does not prevent you from doing things that are against the rules of Federation Commander and you cannot play FCOL without knowing the Federation Commander rules yourself.
