{i Ick 1. The Space Board Game known here as Spacechase is an exploration without exploitation of our Solar System. The Board exists alone as a factually based data scan of our Solar System which requires updating to show the most current data available 2. The crystals used for fuel and currency are a hyperthetical use of a clean fuel system which leaves a rainbow trail.

No pollution. The Zeton Crystal gained upon arriving at the New Blue Planet is indicative of the known power of a crystal to amplify existing power.

3. The six coloured dice each colour corresponding to a sector repeated four times on the orbit enclosing the Solar System is a practical application of the use of colour in contouring psychic energy to beget healing.

4. Green, the colour of Missions in Spacechase is competitively sought after as the key to gaining most points in the game.

The vibration of the colour green produces harmony. White is the colour of crystal power stations. White is the colour related to a condition of emptiness and peace of mind. Thus the mind is taught and trained to achieve results.

The game is non-violent.

Line 40 describes an outer orbiting planet the New Blue Planet.

This application was made on 21.2.1986 at which time science had not mentioned a Blue Planet. In October, 1989 the world was aghast as the Space Probe Voyager sent back images of the Blue Planet which orbits on the outer edge of our Solar System, Neptune, exchanging orbits with Pluto.

1 jW~4 Spacechase is a competitive board game for two to six players. The board has a heliocentric map of the Solar System plus one extra planet bordered by a coloured circuit which is divided into twenty four sectors in the colour sequence starting from Blast Off red, yellow, green, blue, black, and white.

Two tokens and a six sided colour cube are used.

The token which orbits the outer coloured circuit is a Spacepod and the inner circuit token is a Starcruiser. The colour cube is thrown to determine the movement of the Spacepod around the outer circuit, continuing play as instructed by the Colour Code. Completion of one outer orbit enables the Starcruiser to move within the inner circuit between planets.

throwing the colour cube again and moving to the colour indicated. Other players then throw and move likewise. Each time the Spacepod effectively passes Blast Off the player may move his Starcruiser one planet toward the outer circuit providing he pays one crystal for fuel.

Upon reaching the outer orbiting planet, the New Blue Planet players recieve a Zeton Crystal which charges ordinary crystals enabling the Starcruiser to make hyper-space jumps.

Players may now complete Missions.

Each time the Spacepod completes a circuit the Starcruiser is now able to travel to any planet in the Solar System paying one crystal for fuel as before. Destination is determined by Mission discs the player has collected. Uport reaching the desired planet the player replaces that Mission disc on the circle marked M and scores ten points. There are only ten Missions. Nine to the planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and one Galactic Mission to the Andromeda Spiral outside the coloured circuit.

The Galactic Mission is fulfilled by landing on the Black Hole on the opposite side of the board tj to the Spiral and catapulting across the Solar 0 ~system and beyond to the Andromeda Spiral(8 Players must complete at least five Missions before returning to Earth If a player has no Mirnsions he must wait until they become available then land on a green Mission sector to obtain a Mission then he is able to complete 2 t 4.

During the game free trade exists. Players may at any time trade crystals, blue Hi-tech Monitors or green Mission discs by mutual agreement.
