About BattleFleet Mars: Space Combat in the 21st Century

Simulation of interplanetary conflict in the Solar system during the late 21st century.

A balance must be struck between combat and political considerations in order to be able continue the conflict and keep the citizens on side. Combat can be resolved using a simplified chart system or played out ship to ship in 3D space. 400 counters
