Dark Nebula (game) is a Game Designers Workshop product.
- It is a game written for Classic Traveller.
Description (Specifications)
Dark Nebula has 8 small boards representing sectors of about six or so star systems. The boards are placed randomly at the start of the game by both players one at a time, to their own advantage. The game is played in turns with each player's turn having a number of phases. Get the money you earn from your star systems, move your ships and combat, a reaction from your opponent (which has some restrictions), a final move and combat by you, then it is the other players turn.
- The object of the game varies with the board placement, but basically you need to control your opponents home world for a number of turns.
- This game uses mechanics similar to the Imperium game.
