Description

Humanity has reached the edge of the asteroid belt. Warring nations fight for control over its’ caches of ion and ore. In this turn based strategy game, players build their space station and fleet from supply cards. The winner is the first player to take down their opponent’s Station Core. Outpost 18 is a two player 18 card game that plays in 10-15 minutes. Each card works double to give depth to an envelope-sized game — every play is a choice deployed as a base or a ship. Through careful planning, engine-building, and hand management, players can outwit their opponent for control over the belt. But be careful — unexpected attacks can blindside you, and leave you drifting through the cosmos like space-dust. —description from the designer
