	Description Edit \| History

Players battle for the Western, Communist, Neutralist and Oil Alliances to control the world in this world domination game set in the not-too-distant future. Players collect money purchase troops and special action cards, even laser space stations and attempt to oust each other from crucial strategic locations on the board. A game with an obvious lineage from Risk and other low complexity world domination games.
