About the game
Federation Commander has two base games: Klingon Border (which is the same as Federation Commander: Academy + Graduation) and Romulan Border. When placed together, you have ships for the United Federation of Planets and the four major empires that surround them. If you already have Klingon Border (or Academy + Graduation) and want to add the Romulans and Gorns, instead of buying Romulan Border, you can buy this discounted package that includes the non-duplicated parts of Romulan Border, such as the counters, ship cards, reference cards, and a special ship/scenario book. This package does not include the hard-mounted maps, the box, marker, dice.

Questions and answers
Federation Commander: Romulan Space supports 1–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The catalogue lists Federation Commander: Romulan Space for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Federation Commander: Romulan Space belongs to these categories: Wargame, Movies / TV / Radio theme, and Science Fiction. Its main mechanics are Dice Rolling, Simultaneous Action Selection, and Hexagon Grid. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.
The credited designers of Federation Commander: Romulan Space are: Stephen V. Cole.

The catalogue lists Federation Commander: Romulan Space as an expansion. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to an existing base game and usually cannot be played on their own. Check the box or publisher description for the exact base game required, and make sure your edition of that game is compatible with this expansion.
