2–6 players · 120 min · 12+

[From the Book] A simple (but not too simple) set of starship combat rules, which allow huge fleets to engage each other in epic battle (and finish in a reasonable amount of time).

You take the place of an admiral, commanding entire fleets. Using simple, fast-moving game mechanics, these rules attempt to portray the important aspects of huge fleet engagements without becoming to bogged down in time consuming detail.

They're for those players willing to sacrifice some complexity to achieve a fast-moving, playable and most importantly, FUN game.
