Empire Engine
Mekannis is an entirely mechanical planet where machines determine the options for rivaling empires. In eight rounds you plan by assigning a cog wheel to each machine, revealing and rotating the machines. Then you implement the topmost action of each machine; all players do the actions of a group simultaneously - weapons, production and inventions, attack & defense. Actions usually relate to transfers of commodities and soldiers to action and scoring areas, in case of attack / defense also into areas of other players. You win with the highest score from commodities, soldiers and inventions, export & salvages.
