## Description
After a nuclear war nearly wiped out humanity, six factions embark on a desperate journey seeking a new home in the Proxima Centauri system. Saved by a mysterious alien civilization, the Centaurians, each group is given a fresh start on unknown planets. But when their saviors announce their departure, peace is short-lived. In Exodus: Proxima Centauri, you take command of one of these factions and dive headfirst into an epic struggle for galactic dominance. Prepare to build your own fleet of starships, customizing them with advanced technologies, and set sail to conquer new worlds. The journey won't be easy: you'll have to deal with the local resistance left by the Centaurians, face your human rivals in intense space battles, and perhaps even use weapons of mass destruction. Beyond combat, diplomacy and politics are also crucial. Negotiate with other players, participate in votes to define the future of the colonies, and research technological secrets left by the Centaurians to ensure your civilization's supremacy. With a modular board ensuring replayability and mechanics like simultaneous action selection, auctions, influence management, and technology development, Exodus: Proxima Centauri offers a deep 4X experience full of twists. It's a game that rewards aggression and strategy, where every decision counts in building your new human empire.
