Changes

CMII still received fairly good reports from the reviewers of the time. [[''[[Amstrad Action'']] '' were clearly impressed that Domark had improved the failings of Micromega's earlier game stating that "this is certainly an improvement on the original MAT, with better combat graphics and more ship functions. There still isn't much out there in space but this war of attrition is pretty testing"

[[''[[Amtix'']] '' bemoaned that the game was "not the fresh new idea that its predecessor was, in fact there are quite a lot of similarities between the two games... but the gameplay is pretty good. The player is under quite a lot of pressure, especially when the enemy numbers start to increase and you have to repair damage to your ship. Well worth buying if you are a space strategy shoot-em-up fan without Codename Mat the first."
