Humanity has been at each other's throats since time immemorial. Now, in another galaxy, humans wage war amongst themselves again, but this time, with the aid of alien technology found on other planets.
Ascending Empires offers a nice mixture of building, exploring, and development, along with combat via a simple dexterity element. Players flick their starships into orbits around planets to defend or attack them or surround enemy ships to destroy them.
Ascending Empires is sure to sate the desire for a space empire building game that plays simply yet deeply.
NOTE: I will be up front about this. We tried several ways to do this and found the puzzle board method to work best. However, if you keep the game or leave the game out a long while in a humid environment, the boards might warp. If they do, they could inhibit the dexterity portion of the game (affecting startship movement). The simple solution is to hold down any edges that are raised in order to allow a startship disc to glide smoothly across the map.
9 piece puzzle board, 4 player placards, 32 wooden starship discs, 4 wooden battleship discs, 28 wooden planet discs, 10 wooden asteroid discs, 2 sticker sheets, 56 plastic troops, 64 wooden pieces (research facilities, cities, and colonies), 50 VP tokens, 4 range ruler tiles, tech track tokens, rules.
