Description

Twilight Imperium is a unique boardgame that allows players to control one of six different races and guide their faction to galactic control via political intrigue, warfare, trade, and technological progression. The game incorporates an original movable hexagon system design, ensuring no two games are alike.

The Second Edition incorporates a number of elements different from the first: new components, a new tech system, new action and political cards, new racial abilities, and new victory conditions.

Part of the Twilight Imperium Series.
