The players try to found colonies on planets. They need suitable space vessels to do so. Those space ships will be built from different modules (up to six per ship). It is crucial to get the modules you need to build space crafts as efficient as possible. You exploit resources and as your empires grows there will be conflict and maybe you extinct all other lifeforms in the universe. You can add a second game of Vega to have a bigger (modular) map. Instead of playing the standard game you also can play some specific scenarios. The game consists of 1 Map (9 modular pieces) 12 Objects (planets and asteroids) 4 Sets of colored space ships and 4 Colonies 36 Resources of value 1 to 6 4 Sets of standard moduls (each 9 distinctive ones) 3 Sets of expansion module (18 different ones) 1 die and rules booklet Home Page: http://www.bruex.net/vega_01.html
