Line 83:
Since binary star systems often contain two different sizes, they can be even more limited in what they connect to.
==Homeworlds Technology==
==Actions==▼
Both stars and ships in Homeworlds possess different kinds of technology depending on their colors.
On their turns, players select a star system and perform one action in that system. The actions available for a player to take depend on the colors of pyramids in the star system where the action is taking place. The power to do these actions can come from the color of the player's own ships or from the color of the stars that make up the star system that ship is in.▼

If you own a ship in one of these colors, or if your ship is visiting a star system of these colors, you can perform the associated actions. This is important to keep in mind, because you are about to a star system and a ship.
==Setup==
# Place a bank of 45 pyramids off to the side in neat 15 stacks, one for each size and color of pyramid.
#Flip a coin.
#The winner builds a binary star system out of any two sizes and any two colors she wishes using pieces supplied from the bank of 45 pyramids off to the side.
#She takes a large pyramid from the bank in any color and places on its side as a ship, next to the newly-formed star system.
#Her opponent now does the same.
#The same person who won the coin toss now takes the fist move.
▲==Actions==
▲On their turns, players select a star system and perform one action in that system. The actions available for a player to take depend on the colors of pyramids in the star system where the action is taking place. The power to do these actions can come from the color of the player's own ships or from the color of the stars that make up the star system that ship is in.
*'''Movement''' Take one of the ships you have in any existing star system and move that ship to a new system. The destination system must be connected to the star system the ship began in. So if the beginning star system consists of {{PL|::SL|grey|3em}}, then the ship can only connect to a star system made of a medium pyramid {{PL|::M|grey|3em}}. The player does not have to limit himself to star systems that already exist on the table: he can send his ship out to ''Discover'' a new medium star system by taking a medium-size pyramid of any color from the bank and placing it on the table, then placing his ship next to it.
