Intro
Game Story
For
centuries,
a
deadly
virus
has
been
ravaging
one
of
the
most
ancient
galaxies
in
the
universe
eradicating
all
life
in
its
path.
Not
knowing
how
the
virus
began,
fear
has
gripped
the
last
remaining
species
from
the
farthest
corners
of
the
galaxy
that
have
been
able
to
survive
the
deadly
pandemic.
Each
species
has
been
accusing
the
other
as
the
cause
for
all
the
destruction
ever
since
it
all
began.
After
decades
of
searching
through
the
void
of
space
for
a
cure,
something
else
was
found
instead,
salvation.
A
single
planet
that
became
known
as
Theas
was
discovered
at
the
far
edge
of
the
galaxy,
the
very
last
with
any
ability
to
support
life
beyond
the
reach
of
the
virus.
A
war
has
broken
out,
and
the
final
battle
to
see
who
will
claim
Theas
as
their
own
is
about
to
begin.
Only
one
can
survive!

Race background stories:
Ranagrak
A
violent
race
that
is
prone
to
conflict,
and
divided
into
clans.
They
don’t
believe
in
talking
to
resolve
problems,
they
fight
to
the
death
and
whoever
survives
the
fight
is
the
one
that
was
right.
After
their
planet
was
attacked
by
the
deadly
virus,
a
fight
erupted
between
the
different
clans
for
the
available
spaceships,
and
guess
what
only
the
strongest
clans
got
out.
They
eliminated
the
weaker
clans
and
took
the
spaceships.
Now,
on
planet
Theas,
the
clans
have
decided
to
join
forces
to
eliminate
their
rivals,
but
after
the
war
ends,
it’s
back
to
their
law
“only
the
strong
are
right
and
survive.”
The
red
stones
represent
this
race.
Origin
planet:

Innaory
“The
Enlighten
Ones,”
a
peaceful
and
really
intelligent
race
are
basically
a
bunch
of
nerds.
Their
planet
was
the
most
advanced
planet
in
the
universe.
They
had
the
technology
to
basically
do
whatever
they
wanted,
even
prolong
life
and,
from
time
to
time,
cheat
death.
Superstitious,
when
the
virus
attacked
their
planet
they
believed
it
was
a
punishment
sent
by
their
gods,
and
most
of
their
population
stayed,
as
they
were
fanatics.
They
stayed
saying
that
they
deserved
their
punishment
and
that
they
were
ready
to
meet
their
makers,
only
some
of
them
did
not
give
up
and
got
out
in
search
of
a
new
home.
Now,
on
planet
Theas,
they
have
found
a
perfect
environment
that
they
can
call
home,
and
they
are
going
to
fight
for
it.
You
would
think
that
this
nerdy
race
is
weak,
but
think
again
my
friend.
Their
technology
is
so
advanced
that
you
don’t
have
to
be
careful
of
just
their
toys,
which
are
awesome,
but
also
you
have
to
be
careful
of
them
as
they
have
evolve
themselves
to
be
faster
and
stronger
through
biogenetics,
making
this
race
of
nerds
any
bully’s
nightmare.
The
clear/white
stones
represent
this
race.

A
species
built
on
unity,
this
race
works
as
a
whole.
Their
entire
species
was
built
around
their
world
teamwork.
All
of
them
are
taught
from
the
very
beginning
of
their
lives
to
put
their
race
first,
to
forget
about
the
individual
and
only
do
what’s
best
for
the
race.
When
the
virus
struck
their
planet,
the
entire
species
collaborated
to
have
the
strongest
and
the
smartest
of
their
race
scape
the
planet
to
find
a
new
home
and
rebuild
their
civilization.
Now,
on
planet
Theas,
they
are
a
team
with
a
plan;
to
eliminate
their
rivals
and
build
their
home
back
to
the
perfect
unit
it
was.
The
blue
stones
represent
this
race.

Skulls,
blood,
and
bones
are
only
a
few
of
the
things
that
this
race
considers
as
decorations.
A
pure
evil
race,
bred
to
kill
and
destroy,
they
have
no
remorse,
nothing
even
close
that
resembles
a
conscience,
and
their
only
goal
is
to
be
the
only
remaining
race
in
the
universe.
They
only
seek
to
conquer
planets,
take
all
their
resources,
enslave
their
young
ones
to
be
train
and
turn
into
killers,
and
destroy
the
planets
after
they’re
done
with
them.
When
this
race
attacks
a
planet
unspeakable
things
happen,
that
always
lead
up
to
a
star
extinguishing
in
the
sky.
After
the
virus
struck
their
home
planet
only
their
most
elite
warriors,
said
to
be
descendants
of
gods,
were
sent
out
to
establish
a
new
home
base,
where
they
can
grow
strong
again
and
continue
with
the
purging
of
the
universe.
Now,
on
planet
Theas,
they
have
only
one
goal
in
mind,
rip
their
enemies
to
pieces
and
take
this
planet
as
their
own.
“Let
the
purging
begin.”
The
black
stones
represent
this
race.

Getting Started
To
set
up
the
game
you
first
have
to
lay
the
game
board
on
a
flat
surface
with
the
planet’s
map
facing
upwards.
After
placing
the
game
board
down
you
will
distribute
each
set
of
10
battle
cards.
You
will
then
place
the
4
different
colored
stones
into
the
bag
and
shake
them
up.
One
person
will
pick
out
a
stone
and
that
player
is
that
color.
You
do
this
until
all
players
have
a
colored
stone.
Each
race
is
identified
by
a
set
of
colored
stones.
You
will
then
take
the
sixteen
power
cores
and
place
them
in
each
of
the
yellow
spaces
that
have
been
marked
on
the
board
below.
Once
you
have
chosen
your
race
and
placed
down
the
power
cores
you
will
then
distribute
the
movement
counters
so
that
each
player
has
three.
Once
all
of
that
is
completed
you
will
use
your
given
power
crystals
to
buy
specific
units.
You
do
not
have
to
spend
all
twenty
of
your
starting
power
crystals
if
you
do
not
want
to.
After
you
have
purchased
your
units
place
them
on
the
game
board
in
the
starting
area
for
that
specific
color.

How to Play: Detailed
Each
player
has
the
choice
to
spend
their
accumulated
Power
Crystals
at
the
beginning
of
their
turn
before
the
movement
phase
begins.
Once
the
Purchase
phase
is
finished
then
player
can
then
move
one
type
of
their
game
pieces
up
to
the
maximum
number
of
movement
allowed
for
the
unit
type.
At
that
point,
the
next
player
(moving
clockwise)
will
have
their
turn
unless
the
current
player
decides
to
move
into
the
attack
phase.
The
attack
phase
can
only
be
entered
if
the
player
moves
their
piece
into
a
space
that
is
within
firing
range
of
another
player’s
piece.
Phases included in a turn
Purchase
Phase
If
a
player
has
Power
Crystals
to
spend,
to
purchase
units,
they
must
decide
if
they
want
to
spend
them
before
making
any
movements.
If
a
player
moves
a
unit
they
are
then
unable
to
spend
any
Power
Crystals
for
the
rest
of
that
turn.
Movement
Phase
Each
player
will
be
able
to
move
1
unit
type
up
to
the
max
amount
of
spaces
allowed
for
that
specific
unit.
An
example
of
this
would
be
moving
three
different
infantry
units
up
to
a
total
of
3
spaces
combined
for
all
of
the
units.
Each
time
you
make
a
movement
you
will

12. 12
flip
one
of
your
movement
counters
over
so
that
the
red
x
is
facing
upwards.
You
will
be
unable
to
jump
over
or
move
through
any
units
that
do
not
belong
to
you.
If
you
have
moved
your
units
into
a
position
that
you
want
them
to
be
at
and
you
still
have
remaining
movements
you
can
choose
to
forfeit
the
remaining
moves
and
end
your
turn.
If
you
move
your
unit
into
a
space
with
a
neutral
or
opponent’s
power
core
then
you
capture
the
power
core
with
that
unit.
Attack
Phase
During
the
attack
phase
of
the
turn
the
attacking
player
chooses
a
unit
to
attack
with.
Once
the
attacking
unit
is
chosen,
then
the
two
players
will
each
place
1
of
their
cards
face
down
on
the
table.
When
both
players
are
ready
they
flip
over
their
card
to
reveal
their
decision.
If
the
player
plays
a
defense
card
that
player
raises
his
or
her
hit
points.
If
they
player
plays
an
attack
card
they
take
away
that
amount
of
their
opponents
hit
points.
If
the
player
uses
a
misfire
card
while
the
other
player
is
attacking
then
that
attack
does
not
damage.
This
sequence
repeats
itself
until
the
winner
of
the
battle
is
determined.
The
winner
of
the
battle
is
the
player
with
the
last
unit
standing.
If
there
are
movements
remaining
after
the
attack
phase
is
complete
you
can
go
back
to
the
movement
phase.

range
of
an
attack
is
just
the
number
of
spaces
away
from
an
enemy
unit
needed
before
you
can
begin
a
battle.
Q.
Can
I
move
after
I
attack
someone?
A. Yes,
however
after
you
initiate
battle
with
one
of
your
units
that
unit
has
to
stay
in
its
current
space
and
is
unable
to
move
until
your
next
turn.
Q.
If
a
unit
holding
a
power
core
is
destroyed
does
the
core
go
back
to
its
original
position?
A. No,
the
power
core
will
stay
on
the
same
space
that
it
was
at
when
the
unit
holding
the
core
was
destroyed.
Q.
If
I’m
attacked
by
an
opposing
player,
do
I
have
to
play
the
defensive
battle
cards?
A. No,
during
a
battle
you
are
able
to
play
either
the
defensive
or
offensive
battle
cards.
The
defensive
cards
increase
your
health
points
while
the
offensive
battle
cards
deal
damage
to
your
opponents’
health
points.
