Accelerando Space Game Wiki



Welcome to the Accelerando Wiki
This wiki contains information related to the turn-based forum game known as Accelerando. Accelerando is set in the year 2118, at a time when humankind has begun its expansion into the solar system at large. On the Earth, nation-states continue their existence as part of larger blocs. War, in fact all violent action on Earth, has been obliterated due to the creation of the Mechanism, an omnipresent network that monitors all human activity and utilizes neural nanomachinery to prevent violence wholesale. Outside of the Earth's orbit however, things are very different...

The Rules
Every player represents an independent faction. Factions have access to resources which they can use to further develop, colonize, and perform experiments that may have far-reaching consequences.

Much of the game is based around colonization. Factions have their own ideas of government, economics, and ideology, and can be developed by building infrastructure. Infrastructure will increase a player's resource base. Information on a faction's current resource base can be found on their specific faction page, while lists of colonies can also be found on the planet or moon itself.

Players can also undertake diplomatic, economic, scientific and covert actions each turn. Actions may have a food, resource or energy cost. See the page for further details.

Scientific research is also an important part of the game. Through research you will open up new forms of infrastructure and megaprojects.

There is no specified win condition, though having your faction eliminated completely is definitely a loss.
