This September, we are awesomely happy to present you with a new space conquest game! Eminent Domain from designer Seth Jaffee published by TMG (Tasty Minstrel Games) is now available on Board Game Arena.
So would you like to expand your Empire throughout the whole galaxy? Peacefully through colonization, or just by sending your fighter jets to take over?
In Eminent Domain, you'll get a starting deck with two of each cards in it (Survey, Research, Colonize, Produce/Trade, Warfare), then draw a hand of 5 cards. At the start of your turn, you'll choose a card to use as an Action, then you'll choose from the available Role cards stacks one card from the type you want (that will come to reinforce your deck), and apply its Role effect (that you'll be able to boost with other cards of the same type in your hand, and that other players will get a chance to follow in order to benefit from the effect).
This game has a really nice flavor to it, due to the fact that you can manage your deck really from the start with Research cards to trim it down in the direction of the strategy you want to build up, to the numerous Technology cards you can get with enough planets and Research to accelerate your expansion, to the beautifully rendered space universe and to the option to expand into "scenario mode" with thematically preset starting decks.
We are pretty sure that all Race for the galaxy players will really enjoy discovering and playing Eminent Domain!
For this game, we would like to thank the publisher TMG for their authorization to create this online version, and for their enthousiasm in playtesting to help us rule out bugs and make it as good as possible! And of course, once more we send our warmest thanks to the developer Elena Laskavaia (Victoria_La)! As a fan of Eminent Domain she suggested us to contact TMG in the first place, and then implemented an awesome adaptation to gift the BGA community once more with an excellent game!
And now, get those fighters off the ground and into action!
浩瀚疆域
今年 9月, 我们非常高兴地向您展示新的太空争霸游戏!
浩瀚疆域由Seth Jaffee设计，TMG(Tasty Minstrel Games)出版， 现已在BGA上线。
你想在整个银河系扩张帝国吗？
是兵不血刃地殖民, 或是大军压境以接管？
现在就玩吧!
在浩瀚疆域, 你会得到一个起始牌堆 (侦查、研究、殖民、生产/贸易、战争牌各2张), 然后抽5张作为手牌。
在你的回合, 你会选择一张卡片作为行动, 然后你从可用的角色牌堆中选一张牌 (这可以加强你的牌组), 并执行其角色效果 (你能用手上相同类型的牌来强化其效果, 其他玩家也可以趁机蹭行动以从中获益)。
这个游戏的亮点在于,事实上, 你可以从一开始就用研究牌精简牌组以突出战略意图, 或使用侦查牌和从星球上获得的大量技术牌以加速扩张到美丽的宇宙或到预设主题的"场景模式"。
我们非常肯定, 所有银河竞逐玩家将对浩瀚疆域充满兴趣!
对于这个游戏, 我们想感谢出版商TMG的授权, 及其调试游戏的热情!
当然, 我们再次向开发人员Elena Laskavaia (Victoria_La) 致以最热烈的谢意!
作为一个浩瀚疆域的粉丝, 她建议我们首先联系东TMG, 然后开发一个一鸣惊人的版本, 以这个优秀的游戏作为献给BGA的礼物!
现在,出发吧，小伙子们！
