When the Galactic Age ends at turn 1000, the faction with the highest overall score wins. This is the fallback victory for long, balanced games.
How Score Works
- Population, colonies, systems, technology, buildings, military power, exploration, economy, and combat all contribute.
- Warnings appear at turns 900, 950, and 990.
- After the turn limit, the game continues but the score victory is awarded.
Strategy Tips
- Balance your civilization across all dimensions — score rewards breadth.
- Exploration points reward scouting even systems you do not colonize.
- Military score comes from both fleet size and combat victories.
- The Galactic Standings panel tracks real-time score breakdowns.
