Fleet Commander: 1 Ignition

Many centuries have passed since mankind discovered the gravitational fields. Based on them, new empires have risen away from their worn cradles. Their power has become terrifying, their faith in themselves is unwavering and their ambitions seem limitless.

Their armed wing is a fast, deadly and accurate tool, served by their elite armies: fleets of space war ships.

Become a commanding fleet admiral and bring destroyers, cruisers and battleships to battle; Engage in an epic conflict where monstrous weapons of space ships furrow the space in the middle of the ballet of fast frigates. The supremacy over the known universe is at stake.

Fleet Commander is a space battle game for two players. Each player controls a fleet of 7 ships on a 5x5 checkered board, which may integrate terrain features such as asteroid fields. In turn, a player chooses three dice among his command dice, throws them and either acts according the outcomes or saves the dice on his command bridge for following rounds. There are dice to move, attack and put energy into the shields.

Fleet Commander has been designed to make epic space battles easy to play and to enjoy without having to rid the living room table, acquire many miniatures or learn complex rules.

The whole atmosphere of such battles is transcribed here in one "small" box with a very simple but deep game system and beautiful miniatures. Hours of fun guaranteed!

The command system by dice is original and very easy to master. Fleet Commander is a game of “reasoned chance” where luck plays a role and causes the suspense, but where anticipation and the many tactical choices available to players make the difference.
