MapEach server on Astro Empires has many galaxies. Each galaxy has hundreds of stars and thousands of planets, moons and asteroids. No two galaxies are the same; each is different from the others.A galaxy is divided into 100 square regions, laid out in a 10 x 10 grid. Each region can contain stars; some regions have several dozen stars, while others only have a few (and sometimes none at all). Each star on the map represents a solar system, which can have several astros (a term used to refer to planets, moons, and other objects that orbit stars). Most astros can support bases, which allow a player to expand their empire. Only one base can be on any given astro, but bases can be expanded and improved by building various structures. All astros have certain common characteristics, such as terrain type, construction area, solar energy, fertility and various resources (namely metal, gas, and crystals). A player can only see detailed information about bases or fleets owned by other players if they have a base or fleet somewhere in that region of space, or if one of their guild members has a base or fleet in that star system. |
