This game has been coming for 4+ years and is finally finished.



This is a new edition of the Space Infantry game and has been undergoing a major overhaul of the system.
The Space Infantry is a solo game in which you take a squad of soldiers to a series of missions against aliens, creatures and robotic enemies. This game can also played as coop game and I think a versus game mode was mentioned.

The mission maps are generated randomly and require various skills besides combat, so you need to think about the squads composition. You build the squad before the mission, taking in soldiers ranging from CQB experts to fire support specialists and special weapons like flamers or shotguns. You can also exhange some soldiers with specialistas like scout or engineer, who have those all important non-combat skills.

The obstacles in the game map require various skills (armoured door will need demolitions skill for example). If your squad lacks certain skill, you can get past the obstacle eventually, but it costs time.

This game is pure cardboard game with no miniatures, so it propably is nothing that majority of Dakkaists are interested in, but in the off chance that some of you might be interested in a soloable scifi space soldiers game, here's a link to the KS: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lnlp/space-infantry-resurgence/description

I have played the first edition of Space Infantry and liked it a lot. This new edition contains every expansion that appeared to the first edition and much more, so it replaces the first edition completely.
