TI3 is an epic empire-building game of interstellar conflict, trade, and struggle for power. Players take the roles of ancient galactic civilizations, each seeking to seize the imperial throne via warfare, diplomacy, and technological progression. With new oversize geomorphic board tiles, finely detailed plastic miniatures, hundreds of cards, and a massive plurality of options, TI3 will arrive before an audience that has been starving for epic space conflict since TI2 went out of print in the spring of 2003.

Shipping in a massive (12" x 24") epic-size box, this new giant-size edition of TI feature more than 200 masterfully sculpted oversize plastic miniatures - the typical TI units (Ground Forces, Cruisers, Dreadnaughts, Carriers, Fighters, PDS, and Space Docks) as well as two new units (the massive War Sun and the Destroyer).

Firstly, the box. It's epic! When the courier arrived and presented me with this monster of a parcel I felt like I was 8 years old on Christmas morning again (I'm 32, it felt great!).

Secondly, the contents of said epic box. There's a ton of stuff in it. Ships, counters, tiles etc and all of it is of a decent standard. The tiles are thick and robust, the spaceship models are detailed and varied, everything comes across as high quality.

Thirdly, the actual game. If you are reading this because you are thinking of getting the game and aren't too sure whether or not to get it (like I was) press the add to basket button now. It's is immense fun. It does take some time to play, especally at first and it does need a decent sized area to setup and play in. I've seen a lot of places on the internet that suggest about an hour and a half per player for new players and from my experience this is about right.
The options you have in game for steering things in the direction you want them to go are numerous and varied and the arguments and bribery that comes into play as laws hit the tabel is great fun. I'd suggest you need at least 4 players to make it fun and iteresting though it is still fun with 3, it's not quite as interesting.
I'd recommend the expansion as well, it adds some nice touches and helps the game evolve nicely as well as adding pieces for up to 8 players (if you have a day to spare with 7 of your mates that is).

Twilight Imperium is certainly the best purchase I've made in a long time, now it could well be yours.
