Each player builds up a space empire and uses it to conquer the other players. Exploration on the mounted map is simple for players (and dangerous for their ships), revealing different space terrain that affects movement and combat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpace Empires was developed to keep a rich theme without overcomplicated rules. The game includes carriers and fighters, mines, cloaking, a very large technology tree, fifteen ship classes, merchant shipping, colonization, mining, terraforming, bases, shipyards, black holes, warp points, and non-player aliens. Yet the rules are short and intuitive: The basic rules are 8 pages long and increase to 11 pages in length when the advanced rules are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCOMPONENTS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne mounted map (backprinted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour counter sheets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne Pad of Player Aid Sheets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour 2-sided Player Reference Cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16-page full-color Rule Book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16-page full-color Play Book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 10-sided dice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"tabcontent\" id=\"Specifications\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eBarcode: 817054010066\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eVendor: GMT\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"GMT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47824928506073,"sku":"GMT1108","price":152.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0326\/4174\/5034\/files\/VR_817054010066_1_c7543a3c-b308-44d9-ac7a-3d60e3492b23.jpg?v=1771491528","url":"https:\/\/www.superoffice.com.au\/products\/space-empires-4x","provider":"SuperOffice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
