Adventure Party #34 – Space Based Gaming

April 10, 2016

We decided to continue the theme of making Christmas recommendations, for this meeting of Adventure Party. With Star Wars about to premier and the release of the new Independence Day trailer, we thought we’d discuss some of our favorite space based games. We recommend and discuss Battlestar Galactica, Star Fleet Battles, Mag Blast, Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Game, and Space Hulk.
Glenn’s Review:
Glenn reviews the tabletop war minis game Star Wars: Armada. This is your opportunity to pilot and X-Wing, Tie Fighter, or any other ship in the Star Wars universe. Fantasy Flight Games has done a tremendous job creating a well designed ship minis and great game mechanics for space battles. You can maneuver your ship(s) to try and out fox your opponent(s) and bring victory to your side of the conflict. These are pre-painted miniatures, so you don’t have to spend your time getting the colors and paint designs right.
