Twilight Imperium: Distant Suns is a second expansion for the first edition of Twilight Imperium, supporting 2–6 players and a listed play time of 240 minutes.

Released in 1998, this expansion adds uncertainty and strategy through new optional rules. Its most notable focus is the treatment of Neutral Planets, giving groups additional rules to incorporate into their games when they want to use them.

Distant Suns also expands the available components for every race. It includes additional Ground Force and Dreadnought counters for each race, along with other game aids intended to support play.

• Optional rules, especially for Neutral Planets
• Additional Ground Force counters for each race
• Additional Dreadnought counters for each race
• Other game aids

As an expansion, Twilight Imperium: Distant Suns is designed to be used with Twilight Imperium rather than presented as a standalone game. Its optional rules let players choose whether to add these elements to their session, while the extra counters provide additional component support for each race.

Distant Suns is part of the Twilight Imperium series and is one of several expansions associated with the first edition. Its sister expansions are Twilight Imperium: Borderlands, Twilight Imperium: Twilight Armada, and Twilight Imperium: The Outer Rim.
