TINY EPIC GALAXIES: BLAST OFF!

Each player is given a galaxy map on which they track their culture and energy points, their galaxy level, and any ships when not in use. The planet deck is shuffled and a set number of cards, based on player count, is dealt face-up to the table. On your turn you roll dice, with the number of dice determined by your galaxy’s level. You activate the dice one at a time. You can spend one energy to reroll all unused dice at any point, and as often as you have energy to do so.
