The Defence of Procyon III

Take control of completely unique factions in this sci-fi wargame for the eurogamer by Dávid Turczi!

 

Story

From prolific designer Dávid Turczi comes the wargame for the eurogamer: The Defence of Procyon III.

In this smart sci-fi struggle, one-to-four players take control of unique factions as part of a team-based conflict. The card-driven battle wages over two boards using 120 amazing miniatures, with humans defending against invading aliens on the surface and orbital space of Procyon III.

Played competitively or cooperatively, the highly asymmetric gameplay involves four different card-based combat games interacting with each other and continues until one side has achieved victory in this previously insignificant corner of the galaxy.

The world of Procyon III is brought to life by the evocative art of Jakub Politzer (Adrenaline, Sanctum).

In The Defence of Procyon III players will take on one (or more) of the four fully asymmetric factions battling on the surface and skies above the planet. While each plays very differently and has different objectives, there’s a high degree of interactivity between them.

The Defence of Procyon III is truly the wargame for the eurogamer. It’s for the traditional eurogamer who wants to try something with real conflict, and for the wargamer who is looking for something with a euro-feel with low randomness and high strategy. Its highly immersive sci-fi setting will feel familiar to fans of Starship Troopers and Starcraft, while its cards full of smart and thematic effects make it easy to jump into for players who appreciate theme and want a heavy strategy space battle.
