Build the machine.
Command the
cosmos.
One remote settlement. Six raw materials. A mildly unreasonable amount of ambition. Mine, manufacture, and turn one lonely outpost into a civilization the cosmos cannot ignore.

The grand cosmic flywheel
Every smart move creates the next one.
Everything turns on one deliciously dangerous question: what should you manufacture now—and what glorious problem will it solve next?

Reinvest
Return with data, profit, or a heroic new problem—then build the answer.
Rocks, but make them destiny
Mine the ordinary. Manufacture the extraordinary.
Six honest-to-cosmos raw materials become seven purposeful components. No mystery sludge, no inventory confetti—every haul is the beginning of something magnificent.

Stage 02 · Apply unreasonable engineering
Every ambition needs a parts list.
Choose a batch, commit the stock, and upgrade the plant to make time itself slightly more cooperative. Production is deterministic; your cleverness is the wild variable.

One economy · Countless schemes
Your settlement is a machine. You are the ambitious engineer.
Infrastructure opens doors. Research removes the hinges. Fleets, markets, and diplomacy turn production into influence across a universe where distance is real and shortcuts are suspicious.
Mission control
Settlement command
Read the neighbourhood, coordinate missions, and decide which distant rock deserves your flag next.
41 technologies
Technology & research
Navigate 41 technologies that unlock roles, sharpen efficiency, and make impossible plans inconveniently possible.
6 ship roles
Fleets & missions
Build six spacecraft roles—from nimble Scouts to world-founding Colony Ships—and give them somewhere important to be.
3 defense lines
Layered defense
Welcome uninvited guests with Turrets, Drones, and Orbitals. Hospitality has limits.
Live trade
Player economy
Turn “too much of this” into exactly enough of that while the market invents fresh opportunities.
Shared strategy
Diplomacy & treaties
Make allies, formalize promises, and discover whether “mutual interests” can survive deep space.
Seven origins · One spectacularly large neighbourhood
Choose your people. Make history nervous.
Your race gives you compatible worlds, a currency, and a place to begin. What follows—your economy, alliances, fleets, triumphs, and highly educational mistakes—is entirely yours.

Meet all seven contenders in the Field Manual, then give one of them an empire worth remembering.
Legends, currently in progress
Meet the commanders making the leaderboard nervous.
Glory comes in several flavours: balanced power, industrial brilliance, and fleets with a persuasive number of weapons. These commanders currently lead the way.

The map is not decorative
Distance is a decision. Space is delightfully unhelpful.
Coordinates stay put. Deposits run out. Fleets need time and fuel. Every destination is a commitment—so scout the unknown, plan the journey, and try not to arrive heroically unprepared.
