What we’re about
We're a local community centered around board games, card games, and pen & paper roleplaying games. We get together every Wednesday at Empire for an evening of intermediate to advanced board games. We often raise money for local charities and give away board games, generously donated by sponsors.
If your board game preferences lean more toward the classics such as Monopoly, Clue, Mexican Trains, and/or similar light games, please check out other Albuquerque Meetup groups, as Dukes Night caters specifically to modern, more complex games.

TWILIGHT IMPERIUM 4
Twilight Imperium (Fourth Edition) is a game of galactic conquest in which three to six players each take on the role of one of seventeen factions vying for galactic domination through military might, political maneuvering, and economic bargaining. Every faction offers a completely different play experience, from the wormhole-hopping Ghosts of Creuss to the Emirates of Hacan, masters of trade and economics. These seventeen races are offered many paths to victory, but only one may sit upon the throne of Mecatol Rex as the new masters of the galaxy.
PROPHECY OF KINGS
The Prophecy of Kings expansion is packed with new content for Twilight Imperium (Fourth Edition). The galaxy has grown far larger as seven never-before-seen factions enter the game, each boasting its own unique strengths and weaknesses, from the gene-altering powers of the Mahact to the watchful guard of the Argent Flight, to the mysterious and ancient Empyrean. And new factions aren't the only way the galaxy grows bigger! Forty new system and hyperlane tiles add new planets and obstacles to the map, and with two new colors of player components included in the box, you can play Twilight Imperium with up to eight players.
But that's only a fraction of what you'll find in this expansion! Adding even more flavor to your chosen species, a wealth of unique leader cards arrive to support every faction in the game, giving you powers to unlock during the game. Lumbering mechs stomp onto the battlefield as powerful new ground forces with unique special abilities for every faction. As you venture into the unknown regions of space, brand-new exploration decks seed new planets and the void of space with new discoveries, including fragments you can combine to create awe-inspiring relics. On top of this, Prophecy of Kings includes new action cards, agenda cards, objectives, technologies, promissory notes, legendary planets, and more.
THUNDER'S EDGE
The galaxy stands on the edge of a blade. A great struggle is coming, and only the greatest among them all will triumph.
Welcome to Thunder’s Edge, a new expansion for Twilight Imperium 4th Edition! This colossal expansion brings the classic interstellar conflict to a breaking point, where everything revolves around the titular planet of Thunder’s Edge. New factions take to the galactic stage, new worlds emerge for you to explore (or exploit), and a suite of Galactic Events—modifiers that change the rules of the game—ensure that no two playthroughs will ever be the same.
Also included is the brand-new Twilight’s Fall mode, an alternate way to play Twilight Imperium. Take up the mantle of a mad Mahact king, build your own custom faction from the scraps of interstellar civilization, and battle to become the supreme ruler of the galaxy. This mode comes with its own spread of unique components, making it almost an entirely new game!1 attendee
