Capsicum Games announce that on 11th. January they will launch Fleet Commander – Genesis on Kickstarter. This game builds on their original release of Fleet Commander 1 – Ignition, designed by Elwin Charpentier and Henri Redici which was released in 2014 as a two player space battle game, by increasing the player count to 2 to 4. The Genesis version will contain the equivalent of 2 copies of Ignition together with the Beyond the Gate expansion released late last year.
Two new expansions will be available as part of the Kickstarter:
“Salvation is an expansion that introduces technical support ships, new terrains, scenarios and a campaign builder.
Avatar is an expansion that will allow players to add to their fleet heavy battleships and commanders giving bonuses during the battle. It also contains new terrains and special weapons.”
There are three pledge levels: Explorer, Officer and Admiral with increasing Kickstarter.
Fleet Commander brings epic space battles down to size with a runtime of about an hour and the new Genesis version will contain 32 miniatures, 36 dice and 50 tiles. The tiles are used to create an area of space for the battles to take place adding in asteroid fields etc. Unlike some expansive space games these tiles allow for the total playing area to fit easily on a standard living room table. The modular board, special weapons and different scenarios ensure that the game has plenty of re-playability and the Genesis version will allow more players to enjoy this fast space battle game.
