Talk:Race for the Galaxy

"Race is essentially a 4X space game played with cards."

I would argue the game lacks the two latter X's, and thus isn't a 4X game. Even if the RvI expansion adds some of this doesn't my sentiment change for the core game.

However, feel free to add the statement back if you can find a source; preferably changing it to something like "NN considers the game to be a 4X-style game (ref to NN)". Thanks, CapnZapp (talk) 12:01, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Exploit = produce/consume. Exterminate is more tenuous because military power is generally not used against opponents (except with RvI, and then it isn't a prominent feature). --Mugsywwiii (talk) 02:34, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Theme & Influences

Should the article mention the theme & influences? The rule book credits David Brin who created the Uplift Universe and Frederik Pohl as influences. Zabdiel (talk) 11:23, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
