About Neutronium Expansion, from BoardGameGeek:

NEUTRONIUM EXPANSION is a hexagonal 4X strategy board game where players control Heroes of four ancient alien races, exploring the galaxy, gathering resources, building empires, and fighting for survival across infinite parallel universes. THE CORE EXPERIENCE You awaken in an unfamiliar universe with no memories. Somewhere among hexagonal sectors hides Alpha Core - an ancient station of unknown origin. Find it. Enrich your Neutronium. Build your empire. But beware: when three Paradox X artifacts are discovered, the universe collapses... and you wake up in another cycle. The twist? Your Neutronium carries over between sessions. Your knowledge grows. Each universe unlocks new mechanics - from simple exploration to full-scale warfare and diplomatic conquest. 13 PARALLEL UNIVERSES "Recovered Memories" - a unique roguelike/legacy progression system: • Universe 1-5: Learn the basics - movement, exploration, artifacts, looting, building • Universe 6-9: Expanded map, trading, colonies, combat, diplomacy • Universe 10-12: Stations, sector bonuses, the path to victory • Universe 13: All 47 mechanics active. Build the Mega-Structure. Break the cycle forever. No rulebook needed for your first game. Just roll, move, explore. Each session awakens more of your Hero's forgotten knowledge. FOUR ANCIENT RACES Build on territories marked with their colors to unlock ancestral powers: • TERANO (Pink) - Diplomats. Capture territories through patience, not war. • MI-TO (Blue) - Warriors. +1 combat strength in every battle. • IIT (Orange) - Energy masters. Build Nuclear Ports without artifact cost. • ASTERS (Green) - Architects of reality. Construct Advanced Stations. DUAL ECONOMY Neutronium (Nn) exists in two forms: • Enriched - ready to spend on construction, upgrades, and tribute • Unenriched - worthless until processed at Alpha Core Control Alpha Core. Control the galaxy.
