Anyone own Galaxy of Games 3? (Looking for game name)

This is a shareware game I first saw on Galaxy of Games CD3. It is played on a Hex grid and turn based. I remember it being rather fun with the few missions in it and you could target with individual weapons, weapons could be damaged, you could accelerate and deccelerate and turning while going too fast could damage you etc. Anyone know the name of this? I know it is vague but I've been looking for years
Just thought to check here.
EDIT: Anyone who happens to own Galaxy of Games 3 could they let me know? I need to find the name of this game, I know it is on this CD so maybe whoever you are that has it could help me figure out which it is?

Sounds kind of like the combat portion of Space Empires IV. Sorry, but don't know.

You talking about the one where you have to land on planets and take them over? (kind-of a space version of RISK)

No from what I remember of the demo it was a couple scenario battles with a few ships. Like one was escaping the gravity well of a planet with a damaged cruiser being chased by 3 destroyers.

No, had a look at some screens. That game doesn't even have a Hex-grid for the battles. I don't even think it is turn based.

You'll want to search Google for "Fleet Starship Tactical Combat Simulator". It sounds quite similar to what you're describing.
