Sternkrieg: A Game of Interstellar War
Sternkrieg is a game of interstellar exploration and conquest. Each player represents a colony in the same 'constellation' (per the rules) which builds ships and sends them out to explore other regions, gaining raw materials which can be used to build more ships. Players can also use their ships to attack each other. Combat takes place either on a tactical hex grid (provided by the players, as would be the counters) or on a table using miniatures.
