Rules as written

Beyond the home systems, a contested galaxy takes shape. Choose your game and build it using the official setup rules, one system at a time.

Normal TI4

Twilight’s Fall

Official galaxy construction

Randomly determine the speaker and choose factions. Each player receives a private hand of system tiles, then takes turns choosing a tile and placing it in the galaxy.

The map uses the official layout and tile counts for your player count and expansions. Fill each ring before the next, reverse placement order each round, and follow anomaly and wormhole adjacency rules.

Number of players

6 players

Share one lobby link. Each player enters their name and joins before the admin starts.

Prophecy of Kings

Thunder’s Edge

Official map layout

3 blue and 2 red tiles per player.

One lobby link for everyone

Create the lobby and share its link. Everyone enters their own name to join, including you if you are playing. Start once everyone has joined. Save your recovery code to return later. Seating and cards stay hidden until then. Admin recovery controls include undo, checkpoints, and private save files; only your own hidden hands are visible when you also join as a player.

Rules: Living Rules Reference v2.0, pp. 4–6; Thunder’s Edge, p. 7; Twilight’s Fall, pp. 7–8.

TI4 Foundry

Fleets gather. Treaties falter. Mecatol Rex waits.
