Andromeda’s Edge
Place upgradable starships, develop a modular starbase and compete for resources, technologies and control at the edge of the galaxy.
Build a tableau engine around a unique faction while your worker pieces double as starships that can trigger conflict when they occupy contested regions.
Why We Love It
Worker placement and space combat are tightly connected because the same ships drive your action economy and your military presence.
Rules overview
Deploy starships to action regions, resolve encounters and gather resources to add modules to your starbase. Research, commerce, supremacy and progress tracks reward different development paths while raiders and rival ships make some regions dangerous.
Key decisions
Editorial analysis: A ship sent to a lucrative action is also exposed to conflict. Strong turns account for both the action reward and the tactical cost of where the ship finishes.
