Galactic Era

Description


Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/seajaygames/galactic-era-relaunch?ref=bggforums

Galactic Era is an innovative space empire builder boardgame for 1-6 players. You control a fledgling space-faring civilization venturing out into the galaxy. You will explore and colonize distant planets, advance your technologies, trade with allies and battle your enemies.

[galacticera.net]





You can play your star people either on the “light” (service-to-others) or the “dark” (service-to-self) side. The game is quite different depending on which side you play.

Players on the “light” side must play more peacefully. You will thus be more trustworthy to others. You can also easily ally with any advanced civilizations you discover.

As player on the “dark” side however, you have the freedom to be as aggressive as you want. You can also subjugate primitive civilizations you discover that "light" players must leave alone.

You can also switch your alignment during the game.



The amount of luck involved in this game is very low. Combat is deterministic with hidden information (no randomness).



You can trade technologies with other players. Both you and your trading partner teach each other a new ability.



Increase your technology in five different fields. There are many ways to do this, including research and as spoils of war. If you specialize you will be rewarded with epic powers, at the highest level. Gameplay is very different depending on which path you choose.



Form different types of hidden fleets with your ships. These offer different capabilities and have advantages over each other in a rock-paper-scissors fashion. You can even customize improved capabilities for them.

Whenever I make a fleet of more than 3 tokens, I can't really move it without making the stack explode upon release. What settings should I use to keep the stacks intact when moving?

I've fixed it presently by simply copy-pasting the backing from the normal ship tokens, but that's a temporary local fix.

Right now I have a specific problem with the dummy tokens, in that they have a white backing compared to the ship tokens which have a black backing. AFAIK this is an important part of the game for bluffing, but I'm not sure how to fix this issue so that other people can't visually distinguish that a dummy token is in a stack.

It otherwise works fine, although I have to turn off mod threading in order to load the ship tokens.

Updated the mod, I've tried it without mod caching and there are no issues found.

You were right Hazel that the coloured image on the back was so small that it wasn't registering in TTS. However this error must of occured due to a TTS update sometime after we uploaded the mod.

Yo thanks Hazel for writing this all up, I'll read this all up on Monday and see what I can do to fix it.
