Twilight Inscription

Twilight Inscription takes the epic experience of the 4x behemoth Twilight Imperium and shrinks it down into a roll and write. That doesn’t mean this is a small game though. Twilight Inscription is an epic roll and write which plays 1-8 players, each of whom will have 4 dry erase sheets to fill in. These cover each of those 4 X’s; eXplore, eXpand, eXploit and eXterminate.     Players will be trying to stake their claim on Mechatol Rex, the now vacant galactic throne once held by the Lazax Empire. Nature abhors a vacuum, and a new ruler will rise from the ashes to take their place. Each round players will resolve an event card. These could allow players to expand and develop their empire, vote on laws in the galactic senate or even plunge the whole galaxy into war.     Each of the four player boards has a different puzzle to be solved. Navigation has players drawing routes between different planetary systems and claiming worlds to add to their empire. With expansion, players will develop the worlds to produce more powerful resources that can be used to unlock new technology abilities    Industry has players building up their factories to produce trade goods, the wild resource of the game, to strengthen their expansion. Lastly, with warfare players assemble their fleets and strike out at their neighbours around the table. There is also a battle to be the first to fulfil each of the four public objectives, one for each board, available each game. The galaxy is also littered with relics; Powerful forgotten objects that can be used to change the fate of your empire.      There are 24 playable races, each with their own powers and abilities. There are also asymmetrical player sheets to further mix things up and keep it fresh. Grab your pen, select your faction and see if you have what it takes to lead your people to the ultimate victory across the galaxy.
