Step 01
Choose Your Timeline
The Galactic Collision is the story campaign: 72 turns across the Collision Era, the 2.5 billion years in which the Milky Way and Andromeda become one, each turn a pulse of about 35 million years. Open Currents of the Cosmos removes the horizon entirely. There is no turn limit, only the consequences of what you choose.

Gifts raise their disposition. Presence needs it at 0, an alliance at 40; a people that struggles may accept your rule.

What the antennae read
No soul particles: machines are not alive. They deal, and a deal may not hold.

Step 05
Turn Back the Raids
Spacefaring machines launch raids from a source world, and you can watch each one cross the galaxy toward its target. Build a warship within reach, and when the raid lands, fight back at the odds your warships give you, or let it hit: it drains energy and can damage a structure. Destroy the source, and every raid it sent goes dark.
