Empire I
Out Of Stock
Description
Heavy-duty strategic SF wargame doesn't have a lot of components (it can fit inside a large Ziploc style bag), but is still extremely involved. Four empires -- Antares, Crate Armada, Chroma Raphael, and Star Concord -- engage in a major interstellar war. Game rules cover space and ground combat, exploration of new systems, economic development, ship and planetary-shield construction, troop recruiting, the whole nine yards. Four different winning conditions are suggested: (1) the last surviving player (2) the first player to control more than 50% of the star systems on the map (3) the strongest player after a set number of turns or (4) the strongest player after a set time limit (they recommend five hours). - BoardGameGeek
