Any ship, any universe, totally in 3D

Have you ever wanted to take ships from different universes and see who would win? If you can imagine it, Squadron Strike lets you build it and then battle it out on the table with your friends. Squadron Strike combines the most detailed ship building system on the market (you can faithfully reproduce ships from Star Fleet Battles or Babylon 5 Wars) and combines them with a fast-paced tactical game engine that includes full 3D maneuvers and firing arcs.

If you can't wait to get into the fight, the box comes with the Human Diaspora scenario, which also has miniatures available. We have more configurations in the works.

For typical games of two to four ships per player in 3D, game turns last between 6 and 15 minutes, depending on the subsystems chosen. In 2D, you can run about three times as many ships in the same amount of time, and in 2D, the game speed is comparable to Starmada: Admiralty Edition or Colonial Battlefleet. The 3D game is based on the same set of core mechanics used in Attack Vector: Tactical, with a pre-plot and full-turn simultaneous movement engine, and the fastest damage allocation system on the market, all built from a rigorously balanced ship design. system that takes you from selecting genre assumptions to printing beautifully formatted submission system presentations.

Ideal scale: two to six ships per player.
