6 Billion™ is a game which explores humanity's transition from a planet-bound species to a space-faring species, within the confines of our Solar System. 6 Billion™ uses the mechanism of exponential growth to speculate just how many humans might live in such a future. With a starting population of 6 billion on 12th October, 1999 to the end of the next millennium and beyond - 6 Billion™ is a game for everyone alive from that moment, and everyone born since that moment...

Reward
If you have a translation of 6 Billion™ that you want to publish here, email me (David A. Coutts). Given that Board Not Bored Games is a one man company, and 6 Billion™ was completely home-grown and self-funded, I would naturally be grateful for any offers to provide a translation for free. However, I am determined to see 6 Billion™ translated into as many languages as possible, as quickly as possible. Therefore, in exchange for copyright to any translation I am offering a box of 6 copies of the game per translation (including free postage). It's first come, first served, with the reward applying to the first person to supply a translation for a particular language. The author of the translation would be credited, and has a month from accepting my offer (via email) to providing the translation. During that time the translation will be marked "In Progress", with the date of expiry for that person's translation efforts.
The translation must come first (before the reward is given), in electronic form (preferably html) and should be for both:
The new Summary pageVersion 2 of the 6 Billion™ Rules
with the following text (From the Discovery Track) added to section 14.2
If in clear first place on a track then you may gain a power as follows:
Track 1 - Buy a position at a cost of 1 victory point per position (cannot go negative)
Track 2 - Swap position with a Neutral token
Track 3 - Move your token up or down 1 or 2 positions (1 position in 2-player game)
"Turn Order" powers are used, in order, after the random turn order is drawn.
If any special font required to display your language correctly then I'll need access to that font.
