Galactic Konquest is a multi-player turn-based strategy game. Your objective is to conquer the whole galaxy from your starting position holding just one planet, crushing your opponents (both other human players and AI) in the process.
When creating a new game, you can customize it fully and decide if you wish to play in a small galaxy of a handful of planets or if you are ready for a grueling match across hundreds of planets. You can also decide if you want to have a mano a mano with only human players, a mix of human and AI players, or if you just wish to relax and observe the artificial intelligence duke it out.
Each turn you may dictate the orders that you wish your troops to execute (moving ships from planet to planet, attacking others...). An order takes as many turns to complete as the distance between the origin and destination planet. And remember, be strategic. There are planets which are better suited towards production (producing more ships per turn) and there are planets that are more geared towards attacking (with higher strength values). You should use reinforcements wisely, maintain adequate but not excessive garrisons, and always be close to the action. Easier said than done!
