Twilight Imperium Third Edition 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 sieze 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,
The TI gameplay has been refined and redone by original designer Christian T. Petersen. The new design features faster gameplay, and involves players in a far more active game experience with much less downtime. In addition, TI3 will include new Race Cards, as well as a dramatic new approach to the structure of the gameplay itself using the new "Command" system.

Simplified Variant Rules for TI3
|
This zip file contains my attempt at producing a set of simplified rules for TI3, with the aim of reducing game time and making it easier to explain to beginners. The principal change is the complete elimination of all the command counter based mechanics. Instead, all actions are tied to strategy cards. This in turn leads to a number of other simplifying changes.
At the time of writing, these rules have been playtested exactly once, and the results were... inconclusive. On the positive side, I think the game is certainly easier to explain to newcomers, and it seemed to move faster, and it did in fact retain most of the flavor and events seen in a regular game.
However the rules are certainly not perfect... yet. Firstly, the restricted ability to play action cards and special abilities that must be played "as an action" meant that some interesting interactions were lost. In the current version of the rules, such cards and abilities can only be played while executing the "Special" strategy, which reduces their flexibility substantially. Secondly, I think the elimination of detailed command counter management actually removes an area of real skill in the game. This in turn gives greater weight to other elements of the game, which are perhaps more random in nature, e.g. the draw of objective cards and the distribution of resources and influence near your homeworld. There seemed to be fewer opportunities to compensate for a poor starting position or objective draw using careful resource management.
Having said all that, I think there are some interesting ideas in here that might be of interest to anyone seeking to develop a faster playing simplified variant of TI3 using most of the same components. Some of these could be used in a less radically modified TI3 game, for instance the idea of bidding influence at the start of the round to decide the order in which players select a strategy card; or the notion of separating building and moving / attacking into separate actions. The simple idea of having everyone build units at the same time in parallel could save a significant amount of time.
Good luck!
