Develop a space civilisation, research technologies, design custom ships, and fight or negotiate with other empires for control of the galaxy in this sweeping 4X space strategy game.

The Essentials

  • Prioritize economy technologies early over combat ones, since a strong resource base lets you out-build and out-tech opponents later
  • Scout adjacent sectors before committing to expansion, since jumping into a hex with hostile ancients or monsters can wipe out an early fleet
  • Design ship blueprints around a clear role (attack, defense, or utility) rather than generalizing, since focused ships perform better in combat math
  • Watch your reputation tile supply, since running low limits your diplomatic and combat options in the mid-to-late game
  • Track opponents' visible technology and expansion rather than only your own board, since Eclipse is won by relative position, not just personal growth
