Box Description
In the not too distant future, humans will journey to the stars in search of their destiny. What we meet out there may be peaceful or it may be something else entirely; an ancient and powerful Imperium with a very different destiny in mind for us.

Imperium, 3rd Millennium is a completely revised and updated edition of the original Imperium by Marc W. Miller. Imperium is a game of interstellar war between outwardly expanding humans and a vast alien Imperium determined to control the stars. Players take the role of the Terran (human) commander or the Imperial Governor and use their starships and troops to control the Sol sector.

Players move starship fleets on the Galactic Map. The player with the initiative moves first and sometimes more often. When fleets meet, play moves to the 3D Space Battle Display where starships maneuver and engage in combat. When players attack planets, play moves to the Planetary Display where infantry, jump troops, and fighters contest ownership of the world.

Imperium can be played in short tactical scenarios or long, multi-war campaigns ranging from less than 30 minutes to many hours. The average playing time between players familiar with the rules is 2 hours.

Imperium, 3rd Millennium occurs in the local star sector around Sol (Earth). Players control individual starships, fighter and monitor squadrons and startroopers using a unique movement system.

Three game maps provide players with a rich playing environment. These include a new, richly illustrated 3D like strategic map, a multi-tiered space combat tactical map, and a planetary surface combat map.

Playing pieces include ships, combat troops, fighter and monitor squadrons and markers.

Imperium includes a richly illustrated, easy-to-read rulebook with an extensive set of scenarios to create the future struggle for galactic domination!
