Description
DESCRIPTION OF TWILIGHT IMPERIUM BOARD GAME: 4TH EDITION
The empire, led by a race of Lazacs, has kept vast space and its inhabitants under control for thousands of years. Many races bowed their heads before her majesty and military might. However, the imperial tools failed to burn the pride and rebellious nature of individual peoples. Like the tiny particles of dust and debris that attract and form huge asteroids, their ambitions have grown. The interests of the enslaved races increasingly clashed, and the empire began to be shaken by internal conflicts. The cosmic colossus fell, dust enveloped space, and the Age of Twilight of the Empire began. From now on, each race seeks to seize control of the galaxy and take the throne that until recently belonged to their masters.
"Twilight Imperium" is an epic wargame in the space opera genre. We are all familiar with the Star Wars saga. Now imagine that the Empire has fallen and the rebel races are deciding who will rule the cosmos. Twilight of the Empire is Fantasy Flight Games' most famous game. Twenty years after the game appeared in Twilight, a bright star erupted - the fourth anniversary edition of the Twilight Imperium.
DIFFERENCES FROM THE THIRD EDITION
The number of system hexes has increased from 43 to 57. The fourth edition will also delight all connoisseurs of miniatures. Instead of 354 figures, 348 miniatures of combat units of ten different types are waiting for you. The new edition includes 17 races from the base game and additions. Don't be fooled by beautiful stories about weightless space dust. Picking up the box, you will feel more than four and a half kilograms of epic space opera. The number of components is huge.
BEFORE THE GAME
The participant chooses his race. Each nation is endowed with unique abilities that give preference in a particular field. Note the diversity of alien races. Huge bloodthirsty beetles, anthropomorphic Bedouin lions, huge thinking plants, mechanical deadly viruses and other amazing creatures are waiting for you.
Players randomly lay out a game field from hexes, in the center of which is the planet Mecatol Rex - the former capital of the Empire. Race planets are located on the outskirts of space. The capital attracts them with the light of distant stars. In pursuit of their goal, races colonize the planets. This is your source of resources that allows you to master various technologies.
HOW TO PLAY
Goal of the game: to be the first to earn 10 points. The latter can be earned by performing various tasks. This game is widely known not only because it is made in the popular genre of space opera, but also due to a number of interesting mechanics. One of them is strategy tiles. At the beginning of the round, participants take turns choosing one of 8 types of strategies. Having made his choice, the player performs the main action of the tile. His opponents can take advantage of additional action for a fee in the form of tokens of orders.
PAX MAGNIFICA BELLUM GLORIOSUM
"Wonderful world, glorious war" - so says the imperial motto on the box with the game. To protect the planets requires a well-armed fleet, which must be constantly increased. If ships of two races are found on the same tile, the battle begins. The result of the battle is determined by throwing dice. The enemy must be completely destroyed or may retreat to the neighboring hex. In addition to rivals claiming the throne of the Empire, you must also clash with the Resistance.
LAWS OF THE UNIVERSE
However, the world is governed by both wars and laws passed by the Galactic Council. Laws are another interesting mechanic. All the planets of the former Empire take part in the voting. The more planets you control, the more votes you get. The adopted law can flare up like a new one and change the course of the game.
