About the game
Torn by endless rivalry of species, each vying for their own supremacy, the galaxy is now in ruin. Once glorious factions are now either gone in the mist of time or shut in their homeworlds. There could not be worse time for invasion of mysterious Weavers. Their Swarms are coming from another plane to enveil and reave whole star systems. Millions of small spacecrafts weave the network of uncanny glimmering constructions. Once their work is done, stars and planets vanish from our universe without a trace. Then Weavers Swarms move on and on, consuming whole clusters on their way. Your only hope is to unite what species remain in the galaxy and banish Weavers before they can complete their sinister webbing. The Weavers is an expansion allowing you to play Master of the Galaxy solo, including a deck of solo cards and rules.

Questions and answers
Master of the Galaxy: The Weavers supports 1 player according to the catalogue. This is the publisher’s listed player count, so the game is designed for exactly that number of participants. Variants for other group sizes, if any, are described in the rulebook of your edition, so check it before setting up a different configuration.
The listed playing time for Master of the Galaxy: The Weavers is 30–90 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Master of the Galaxy: The Weavers for ages 13 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.
Master of the Galaxy: The Weavers belongs to these categories: Science Fiction and Expansion for Base-game. Its main mechanics are Area Majority / Influence, Open Drafting, and Chit-Pull System. 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 Master of the Galaxy: The Weavers are: Konstantin Seleznev and Timofey Bokarev. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers.

The catalogue lists Master of the Galaxy: The Weavers as an expansion for Master of the Galaxy. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Master of the Galaxy to use it. Check that your edition of Master of the Galaxy is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
