Every game starts the same way — one colony pod, one spaceman, and a map you have not
seen. What happens next is the part you control.
Expand
Cities that earn their keep
Every base you found and upgrade raises your income per turn. Growth compounds,
so where you put the second city matters more than where you put the tenth.
Research
A tech tree with forks
Commit to space travel, terraforming, or weapons your neighbours cannot answer.
You will not get all of it in one game.
Fight
Ground, orbit and beyond
Dig units in to hold a line, take a base by walking into it, or open a wormhole
and arrive somewhere nobody was watching.
Negotiate
Diplomacy with consequences
Trade credits, technology and maps. Sign a pact and mean it, or break one — the
AI remembers, and so do the other players.
Review
Watch the whole game back
Every finished game keeps a replay. Step through it turn by turn, from any
player's point of view, and find the move that lost it.
Compete
A new challenge each week
One fixed map, one seed, everybody gets the same start. Play it as many times as
you like and post your best score.
