old Imperium search

[Guiness]

I'm looking for some help finding an old Imperium and hope someone can help. I read the description years ago and wanted to try the variant, but never got around to it.

The race was Meklar, and they were xenophobic and restricted to their home planet until someone disturbed them Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy style. Imperium 27 - There can only be One seems close, but not the rules I remember. Was there a similar variant I'm not finding?

Not ringing any bells, but I was not around RB for most of the earlier Imperium games. Hopefully one of the veterans can help. Or perhaps it was a succession game rather than an Imperium?

I'm assuming imperium 42 wasn't what you meant? (That was much more about the hitchhiker's theme than anything else if I recall correctly.)

No, it was older than that. It wasn't a hitchiker's theme, more inspired by the HGTTG planet Krikkit and the Krikkiters, who upon finding out there were other beings in the universe decided it had to go!

I'm starting to wonder if I was just reading an Imperium 27 report.

Oh I like that report a lot.

Thanks for digging this up! It was a super enjoyable play through. Love the Meklar 1PE scenarios.

I didn't even think that was possible! Excellent maneuvering with the votes. Also the first time I saw someone do serious damage with sabotage missions.
