The Galactic Empire has fallen, and now many races are looking to seize power. The game board displays multiple sectors of space, each containing spaces for cards represnting planets, space-stations, etc that you can influence to gain resources/abilities. Using those resources to increase your influence in other sectors to expand your empire and earn final victory. Each of the 12 rounds consists of the following phases: 1. Players choose 1 of the 7 action cards secretly, and pass the remaining cards clockwise until all players have chosen. These cards determine the player order for the round, and income. 2. In player order, players pay to place their influence cube on a planet/system card and take any immediate rewards. 3. Players earn resources for each cube on a planet/system that has an ongoing effect. 4. Each player that controls a sector (most cubes) gains that sector's bonus (VP or resources) Once all planet/system cards are full, or at the end of the 12th round, the game ends and the player with the most VP wins!
