This is an adaptation of the board game Twilight Imperium and it plays quite a bit differently from Axis and Allies. An explanation of the rules and a brief tutorial is provided lower down in this post. Some basic info: The map is setup with 2 factions, free-for-all. Everything you do has a cost in this game - and PUs and unit placement is not handled like Axis and Allies. A player card for each faction is located near their homeworld to enable you to easily keep track of: resources, unit caps, and Victory Points. I'll go through this row by row, from top to bottom. Start of Round 1, Green Turn.
