Starship Troopers: Just a footnote in video game history?

Not that Starship Troopers: Terran Ascendancy isn’t mentioned in a lot of video game-related websites and blogs. It’s just darn disappointing reading about it on Wikipedia. Why? Go check out the entry:

Starship Troopers: Terran Ascendancy is a real-time tactics video game developed by Blue Tongue Entertainment and published by Microprose on October 28, 2000. The game is based on both the 1997 movie Starship Troopers and the book Starship Troopers by Robert Heinlein.

It’s so short! Am I the only video game player who played the game?

The graphics and sound aren’t shabby as this video shows:

The gameplay is great, that I can attest to. Me and the guys (read: my college buddies) had a blast playing the game 9 to 5 (yes, we had day jobs, but Starship Troopers took precedence) back in the early 2000s.
