Ion Glory

Ion Glory is an interstellar confrontation simulation, a strategic card game set in the unforgiving realm of space. Maintain your planetary alliance, economics and keep the odd Kothian out of your parsec! Starships move vast stretches of space in the blink of an eye, making a board or playing pieces unnecessary. Players purchase ships made by all races, allowing for an interesting mix of weaponry in every fleet. Advanced rules allow for boarding parties, secret weapons, weapon refitting, planetary and ship capture, terrorism and sabotage.

The company truly deserves its name as the game comes unmounted and uncut --you must even supply the required pair of dice. This is crude desktop-publishing grade, but it looks like fun.
