Eclipse: Second Dawn for the Galaxy puts you in command of a vast interstellar civilization. Following the Terran - Hegemony War (30,027 - 33,364), major space species redoubled their efforts to establish and stabilize peace. But today, tension and discord are growing again among the seven main species of the Council itself. Old alliances are broken and new ones are made in secret. The clash between these superpowers seems inevitable!

Your mission is to expand your civilization by exploring and colonizing new sectors, by developing technological research, or by building ships, equipped for space combat. In turn, each player selects actions to achieve their goals, carefully managing their resources, or engaging in epic battles.

It's up to you to gain the most victory points in 8 rounds. For this you will have to win your fights, form diplomatic relations, take control of the monoliths, make great discoveries and update new technologies. There are many paths to victory, so you should plan your strategy around the strengths and weaknesses of your species, and keep an eye on the efforts of other civilizations.
