What is Imperial 2030
Imperial 2030 is a game on its own, based on the rules of Imperial. The six powers (USA, Europe, Russia, China, India, and Brazil) develop their industrial basis and build up armies and fleets. They fight over control of neutral land and sea areas in order to become the most powerful nation worldwide.
In this game it is not the players who take turns, but the six powers, one after another. The players are just internationally operating investors who act in the background. By giving money to the six powers, which all have their own treasuries, the players influence the politics. The biggest investor in each nation gains control of that nation's government and decides what the nation will do. As control of a government can change with each new investment, players may control several governments at the same time. As investors, players should not get too attached to their preferred nation, but rather focus on where their investments have the best rates of return. Essentially the game is about money, and not about military domination!

What the community says about Imperial 2030
Remake de un juego anterior denominado Imperial, sobre el cual, se han introducido algunas modificaciones. Es un juego económico, aunque tiene la apariencia de un wargame. Cada jugador compra deuda de diferentes potencias. Si es el que más deuda posee de una nación, adquiere su control y puede jugar con sus unidades. Aunque hay batallas y conquistas, no se trata de ganar con un país, sino de utilizar los paises adecuados en el momento adecuado para obtener más beneficios. Muy recomendable. Sobre todo, si uno está acostumbrado a los wargames.. para vivir una experiencia diferente (ojo a tene
Variante con el tablero de todo el mundo. Muchos prefieren el Imperial original. Tengo la versión de expansión de tablero, toda metida en la caja del Imperial original, gracias al Level 10 en maestría de tetris de Ludotecas xD
Tan bueno como el Imperial, con alguna pequeña mejora.
Tiene paises desbalanceados (China y USA)
