Empire Engine

In the shattered world of Mekannis, four empires compete to restore the Great Engine, an immense machine that once powered the world. Each empire uses a rotating gear-driven engine to manage its actions. Players simultaneously choose to attack, defend, salvage, export goods, or collect soldiers and inventions. Gears rotate the engines each round, activating the actions shown along their top edges. Goods, soldiers, and inventions placed in a score pile provide points, and the highest total at the end of the game wins.
