Space Base is a dice game where players draft ships into their Space Base. |
Every turn, no matter whose turn, players harvest rewards from their Space Base, whether those rewards are an increase in your baseline income, credits for the next turn, influence or some other powerful effect that will lead you to victory. |
Space Base has you involved and engaged on every player’s turn, from the first roll of the dice to the last! |
When any player reaches 40 victory points, you will finish the current round so all players have the same number of turns, at which point the player with the most victory points wins! |

On your turn you will roll 2 six-sided dice. All players will then claim rewards from their cards, either for each individual die or for the sum of the dice. For example, if you roll a 5 and a 6, you could claim rewards for the 5 sector and the 6 sector cards on your board, or you could claim the reward of only the 11 sector card on your board. |
Importantly though, if it is not your turn, instead of gaining rewards for cards on your board, you will gain rewards for the "deployed" cards above your board. |
After rewards are gained, the active player may buy a new card to place on their board, causing the card currently in that sector to be deployed above their board. |
As new cards are bought and deployed your base will get better and better at a faster rate. Don't forget to score points because in the end points are what matters! |
