Empires of the Void II

Empires of the Void II is more Starship Enterprise than an Imperial Star Destroyer—and Picard's Enterprise at that.In this two- to five-player romp, you’ll scour the far edge of the known universe in your massive Worldship, exploring and politicking across eight backwater planets while befriending exotic alien races. Sure, you’re also duking it out with your opponents. Ships can do battle, and you can conquer planets to outright colonize them. But fulfilling quests of diplomacy and aid—like curing diseases or fighting off piracy—tend to pay higher dividends, so the space battles are far fewer and farther between than in bloodier galactic-scope games like Twilight Imperium 4th Edition or Eclipse.
