To Distant Stars

This is a small press published game focusing on space combat and expansion in a remote star system. Players are sector governors of a region known as Alpha 931 which is 15 light years in diameter. Turns are three months long. The game is reasonably complex and the systems are essentially those of a wargame, 1980's vintage. The rule book and charts are 16 pages long. However, the system is intriguing and has many ideas that would not look out of place in a modern game. The game revels in obscurity. There are no graphics, no designer is credited and there is not even an indication of where the publisher is based. Production is basic and monochrome. —user summary
