Xia: Legends of a Drift System (Preorder, Reprint, ETA Q3 2024)

Xia: Legends of a Drift System is a 3-5 player sandbox style competitive space adventure board game with light RPG elements. It features:

• A fully modular board, with 21 unique Sector Tiles.
• 21 pre-painted starships each with unique powers and abilities.
• Multiple paths to victory. (ex. A game could be won without firing a single weapon, or entirely through combat.)
• Variable game length. Players choose how many points to play to at the start of each game.
• 3 Non Player Ships (NPC’s) that fly and interact with the players and each other.
• A cargo Hold system. Players must arrange their cargo for maximum effectiveness.
• 3 tiers each of Engines, Missiles, Blasters and Shields for players to purchase and equip on their ship.

Each player starts out as lowly but hopeful captain of a small starship. The players have just arrived in the dangerous but promising drift system of Xia. Players will fly their ships about the system, completing a variety of missions, exploring new sectors and battling other ships. Navigating hazardous environments, Captains can choose to mine or trade valuable commodities. Players will vie with each other for Titles, riches, and most importantly Fame. Players must take advantage of opportunities as they arise in order to maximize gaining Fame Points. The most adaptive, risky, and creative players will excel. One captain will rise above the others, surpassing mortality by becoming Legend!
