1st Planet (Blue) on the Nexus Board!


The Idea of Nexus is 8 Separate planets intertwined by gateways, bridges, and blue boxes will pretty much fill the screen.  Each planet will require a strategy, and then the Nexus (routes between them) will also. It might be a litttle ambitious and I will probably end up with an unplayable mess. 

It worked on paper...  but, trying to fit 8 Planets onto a single screen and retain any geography on them is proving very challenging. 


Here is Nexus Planet 7 - Blue Marble:


From the game information: 

Blue Marble: 

This planet is known to the locals as "Dirt".  With a surface of nearly 80% water, this is obviously irony.  It is for the water that the Nexus embarked on official relations with the Blue Marble. 

Not much is known about the Blue Marble except the water has caused the locals to remain in isolated groups so long that they have distanced themselves from each other into groups that have more differences than Ceti 3A and B, two entirely different worlds. 

I will release this as a separate board... I know there are so many Earths on the list now.  However, the specific Strategy for this board is a little different because the countries, continents and borders have all been edited to fit into 1/9th of the screen.
