The Cordians invaded to secure strategic mineral resources but this water processing plant is critical to both sides on this parched desert world.  Can the Cordians secure the plant without inflicting collateral damage to this critical infrastructure?  Can the Tel Ahrni insurgents break the Cordian's will and force them to withdraw?  Do the Crout remain loyal or turn against their human masters?  Wartopia is designed for convention and club play so it's easy to learn and plays very fast. It's also a "historical sci-fi" game. While it includes mechs and aliens the core infantry and AFV tactics are right out of the 20th century! If you enjoy modern fire & maneuver tactics and SF books and movies you'll enjoy this event! Suppressive fire! Frag out!
