From GreenBrier:
The end of the world as we know it.
Colonizing System Sol was doomed from the start. The initial steps of leaving Earth1, centuries ago, were full of hope. The thrill of exploration and discovery was met with fierce competition between factions.

This Kickstarter is unique for us in a number of ways. First off, it will only run for a short period of time (8 days). The game is finalized, and so if you are interested in getting it early (backers and retailers too) this is how you can do it. Also, this game is a departure from the narrative driven games we have done (and will continue to do). However, the tight mechanics and Euro themed style of play for this game are gorgeously simple to learn, but strategically fun to work through as the game progresses. Also, for the first time, this rule book will be translated into German and French. We hope you love it as much as we do!
