By choosing a race you are choosing a starting hex.


I guess my question is what is my starting hex? How can I orient it if I have no idea? Where does it say what hex my starting hex is?

For all the alien races, it says which hex number is their starter hex in the rulebook, but for Terrans it just says to choose your starting hex.


Okay, I'm looking at the Terran Directorate playerboard from Eclipse 5 and I see that there's a hex number under the picture of my guy on it. So I suppose I'll have a look at the map to see what the hex looks like.

I'm just going to have to come to terms with the fact that self-vote suiciding will forever be referred to as "pulling a JPK" now, aren't I? ~ JPK

Anyone else notice they used Mu Arae twice for homeworld name. Wonder is they realized that yet or not.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I noticed. And it's the game not the person who made the original spreadsheet. boardgamegeek has pics that people have taken and it's definitely labeled that.


and shit, there's a quantum grid after all. That might have made the Eridani a more palatable pick. *shrug*

the "Pricks of Orion" that is. As opposed to the "warmongering douchebags of Orion" or the "Orion wankers"



The warmongering Orion between Blend and Tatts. Watch out for this geezer, Blend.

When we get to playing, will it be IH first then me, or IH then Tapper?

IH & Tapper. Since you got first pick of races you get last pick of actions.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I didn't crush him entirely. I left him a couple of hexes to play with.

Hmm, Descendents and Planta at one end, most likely Hydrans and Lyra on the other. This is intriguing orientation-wise.

That's what I thought, just that D'rek's diagram showing starting locations had a 1 by IH and a 2 by me, which confused me.

Orient my homeworld with wormholes facing North and North-West (i.e. into Tier II).

Planta don't have a great history on these forums - didn't Tapper get wiped out when he played with them?


I was in a decent position with them in game 1, but then my laptop was lost with all the game files so the whole thing died.
