INTERGALACTIC
INTRODUCTION
List and Dice game for 2-6+ players.
Space Empire Theme.
Each player controls a different Alien Race seeking
to dominate his neighbors.
VICTORY
The player with the most Victory Points at the end of the game wins.
STAGES
The game has 5 distinct Stages that follow in order.
Each Stage has its own unique List and turn Sequence.
The Stages in order are:
I. Research Stage
II. Exploration Stage
III. Development Stage
IV. Buildup Stage
V. Conflict Stage
DICE
Six and Ten sided Dice are needed.
TOKENS
There is one set of common Tokens.
These are also called Intergalactic Tokens.
These have different uses at each Stage.
Max number of Tokens you can have at any time is
20 plus your Intelligence level.
Immediately Use or Discard excess Tokens.
ATTRIBUTES
Players accumulate levels (+1 bonuses) in several Attributes including:
Weapons, Defense, Fleet, Speed, Population, Intelligence, Scan,
Strategy, Terraforming, Finance, Manufacturing, Metals, Energy
RACE RECORD
Each player needs pencil and paper to record his Technologies, Worlds,
Developments, Fleets, Maneuvers, and Attributes.
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES & DEVELOPMENTS
Some technologies and developments and Fleets have requirements that must
be met in order for them to be put in play. These are always some minimum
Attribute level (Example: Req Speed 3+ means you must have 3 or more
levels of the speed attribute before you can play the card).
All Tech and Dev and Fleet cards with a requirement are considered to
have the "Advanced" designation.
SETUP
Have common unmarked Stage Lists.
Have Race Records for each player.
Players roll high on 1D10 to determine turn order.
Each player selects a Race and a Homeworld.

On your turn gain 1D6 IT.
On your turn roll 1D100 (Research roll) once on the Research Technolgy List.
Add 2 to your roll for each level of Intelligence you have.
Record on your Race Record all your Technologies.
The Stage ends when each player has had 10 Turns.
You may spend 1 IT to increase or decrease a Research Roll by that amount.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
EXPLORATION STAGE
Players take turns.
On your turn gain 1D6 IT. Add 1 for every level of Scan you have.
On your turn roll 1D100 (Exploration roll) once on the Explore Worlds List.
Add 1 to your roll for each level of Intelligence and Energy you have.
Add 2 to your roll for each level of Scan and Speed you have.
Record on your Race Record all your Discoveries.
The Stage ends when each player has had 10 Turns.
You may spend 1 IT to increase or decrease a Exploration Roll by that amount.
You may spend 5 IT to get an extra Exploration Roll.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
DEVELOPMENT STAGE
Players take turns.
On your turn gain 1D6 IT. Add 1 for every level of Finances you have.
On your turn roll 1D100 (Development roll) once on the Development List.
Add 1 to your roll for each level of Intelligence, Speed, and Energy you have.
Add 2 to your roll for each level of Terraforming, Finances, and Population you have.
Record on your Race Record all your Developments.
The Stage ends when each player has had 10 Turns.
You may spend 1 IT to increase or decrease a Development Roll by that amount.
You may spend 5 IT to get an extra Development Roll.
Some Development cards have the criminal designation.
They give you +1 in the indicated attribute and a -1 to all your opponents.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
BUILDUP STAGE
Players take turns.
On your turn gain 1D6 IT. Add 1 for every level of Manufacturing you have.
On your turn roll 1D100 (Buildup roll) once on the Buildup Fleet List.
Add 1 to your roll for each level of Population, Speed, and Energy you have.
Add 2 to your roll for each level of Metals, Finances, and Manufacturing you have.
Record on your Race Record all Fleets you build.
The Stage ends when each player has had 10 Turns.
You may spend 1 IT to increase or decrease a Buildup Roll by that amount.
You may spend 5 IT to get an extra Buildup Roll.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
CONFLICT STAGE
Players take turns.
Each turn has 7 Phases:
1. Logistics Phase
2. Challenge Phase
3. Tactics Phase
4. Advantage Phase
5. Battle Phase
6. Resolution Phase
7. Galaxy Phase
LOGISTICS PHASE
Gain 1D6 Tokens.
Gain 1 extra Token per 5 Levels you have in Strategy (rounding up).
CHALLENGE PHASE
Declare which opponent you are attacking.
You are the attacker. He is the defender.
TACTICS PHASE
The Attacker rolls once on the Conflict Strategem List.
Next The Defender rolls once on the Conflict Stratagem List.
Players may spend 1 IT to increase or decrease their Conflict Roll by that amount.
Important note: The attribute bonuses provided by Strategems only last the current
battle and are then lost.
ADVANTAGE PHASE
Compare the Attacker & Defender’s Levels in 10 Attributes:
Weaponry, Defense, Fleet, Speed, Population, Energy,
Intelligence, Scan, Strategy, and Terraforming
If they have the same Level there is no Advantage.
The player with the higher Level has the Advantage in that Attribute.
Gain +5 to the upcoming Battle Roll for each Advantage you have.
This is the Battle Advantage Total (BAT).
For Example: You and I are tied in Weaponry and Strategy. I have
the advantage in Population & Speed so I have a BAT +10.
You have the advantage in Defense, Intelligence, Scan, Fleet
Size, and Terraforming so you have a BAT +25.
The player with the most Advanced Techs and Fleets gets +5 to the BAT.
Players may now spend IT to increase their BAT by the amount spent.
BATTLE PHASE
Both Attacker & Defender roll 1D100 (The Battle Rolls) and add their BAT.
Each players total is called their Combat Roll Sum (CRS).
The higher CRS is the Battle Winner. The lower CRS is the Battle Loser.
Ties are possible.
The bonuses provided by Strategems are now lost.
RESOLUTION PHASE
The Loser discards 1 of his own Fleets of his choice.
The winner takes control of 1 World (of his choice) of the loser OR
causes 1 Development (of his choice) of the loser to be eliminated, whichever he
has more of (Example: If the loser has more Developments in play than
Worlds, the winner must pick a Development to be lost).
If Battle Phase was a tie, Attacker & Defender both lose 1 Fleet (Each player
chooses which of his Fleets is lost) and that is all.
GALAXY PHASE
You may play 5 IT to attack again starting at Challenge Phase.
Max hand size is 5 cards. Discard excess cards.
At the end of turn 2X (X = Number of players) of the Conflict Stage and every turn
after that roll 1D10. On a roll of 5 or less the game ends.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
ELIMINATION RULE
If you lose your last Fleet, you automatically lose and are eliminated
from the game. Note that a Fleet is considered to be any buildup
that gives a Fleet bonus.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
