Space Battles: A Spacefarers Guide
By Rick Priestley
Produced by Wombat WargamesPledge your allegiance and swear your oaths, power up your annihilation drives and charge your laser blasters, welcome to Space Battles, the new age of galactic warfare!
Written by renowned rulesmith Rick Priestley, using standard playing cards, Space Battles: A Spacefarers Guide is an exciting, dice-less spaceship tabletop wargame. Quick-paced, easy to pick up, while also tactically challenging, Space Battles allows players to battle it out amongst the stars as they lead their fleets of spacecraft in a series of exciting scenarios.
While the game can be played and greatly enjoyed as a generic system, Space Battles also includes a dynamic backstory and range of unique factions. Each with their own individual playing style, five different factions are detailed within this book; the Federation, the Dahlians, the Orzo, the Anthozoans, and the Xixan. There is also the mysterious Spectral Fleet, an esoteric force of spacefarers who slip in and out of corporeality. In addition to his reputation as one of the finest wargames writers of all-time, Rick Priestley is also regarded as one of the greatest creators of backstories and lore, this is clearly evident in the unique universe he has created for Space Battles.

Keine Würfel? Regeln von Rick Priestley?
Macht zumindest neugierig. Das Prinzip Karten statt Würfel ist zwar nicht völlig neu, aber ich denke in der Kombination ist es schon mal einen Blick wert.
Bei Falkenstein hat es gut in den Hintergrund gepasst. Wäre interessant wie’s hier eingebaut wird.
Ich sehe da jetzt keine Verwendung von Karten. Möglicherweise kommt das System auch ohne diese aus.
Habs überlesen. Es verwendet Karten. XD
