Eclipse: Second Dawn for the Galaxy is one of the best board game experiences around. Eclipse combines the classic space 4x genre with a wonderful euro game core to elevate itself above the competition. In Eclipse, you'll take on the role of a spacefaring civilization and try to make yourself the most powerful force in the galaxy. This can be done through exploring the galaxy and discovering new planets, combat with other players or non-player enemies, or becoming a scientific powerhouse! Eclipse is for between 2-6 players, but unlike many similar games, this is notable for being a great 2-player experience.
