Gates of Antares: The Battle for Xilos

Die Erweiterung für Beyond the Gates of Antares kann jetzt vorbestellt werden.

Preparation for the online Gates of Antares campaign is moving into overdrive as we prepare for imminent arrival of the first narrative supplement book – The Battle for Xilos – available to Pre-Order from today!

Battle for Xilos narrative supplement

Once again penned by game author Rick Priestley, the Battle For Xilos continues the events from the main rulebook – triggered by the discovery of the planet of Xilos.

The book describes, in the form of an exciting and continuing narrative, the struggle for control of the planet and the ancient builder tech hidden beneath its surface – and includes a campaign system featuring a series of scenarios which cover the different stages of the battle for Xilos, from the initial landings to… well, we’ll come onto that… with a cool system for gathering campaign victory points and fielding some of the strange builder tech artefacts that your forces will capture along the way!
Packed with new rules!

Battle for Xilos also includes a whole raft of new content – including rules for including allies and mercenaries in your force as well as new army lists for the Ghar Outcast Rebels, and the mercenary forces of the Freeborn Adventurers and Boromite Clans, not to mention a host of special characters, new troop types, new weapons and vehicles, and some rather scary native creatures.
