Several galactic corporations compete for control over this resource in hopes of securing riches for themselves. When their military forces arrive to harvest rubium found on a foreign moon, they are greeted by the many indigenous life forms. They quickly conscript the alien creatures and begin marching against their competitors. Far out on the galactic frontier, away from oversight or public scrutiny, these four corporations now do fierce battle for control of the moon’s rubium.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNexus Ops\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e is a light-medium science fiction war game. The game boasts a hexagonal board that is set up differently every time, as well as (in the Avalon Hill edition) cool \"glow\" miniatures and lots of combat.

By winning battles and fulfilling Secret Missions, you can obtain victory points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnits are composed of various alien races and have stats similar to those used in the Axis \u0026amp; Allies series. Combat is also similar. Players who lose battles are compensated with Energize cards which grant them special powers later. Players can also obtain Energize cards by controlling the Monolith, a raised structure in the center of the grid. The first person to reach the required number of victory points wins the game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it’s Different from Previous Versions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpdated Illustrations and Graphic Design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMolded plastic 3D Monolith\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes Team Play and variant rules from Fantasy Flight version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarry out Secret Missions! \u0026amp; Control the Mines to collect Rubium!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActivate Energize Cards to sway the tides of battle!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnlist alien species and battle for dominance!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHidden objectives create fun surprises and comebacks!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes translucent “Blacklight Glow” minis!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e164 Plastic “Glow” Figures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 Player Boards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e108 Cards (Mission, Secret Mission, Energize)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16 Game Board Tiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 Double-Sided Monolith Tile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 Plastic 3D Monolith\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24 Exploration Tokens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e70 Rubium gems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 First Player Token\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 Dice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 Rulebook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lets Play Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40456060502088,"sku":"RGS02712","price":184.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0068\/7190\/8425\/files\/rgs02712-nexusops-box-2000px-shadow-3d-v2024__52991_1.jpg?v=1731968823","url":"https:\/\/goblingames.nz\/products\/nexus-ops","provider":"Goblin Games NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
