Star Trek Ascendancy Board Game
Did you like the Star Trek episodes that focused on local problems, such as annoying space amoeba threatening Potemkin IV? Or those episodes featuring a broader “clash of civilizations” between the Federation, the Klingons, and/or the Romulans?
Star Trek: Ascendancy is a board game from Gale Force Nine, and it’s all about BIG Conflicts. In the game, you build an empire—then bump into others. Conflict will result. Planets will be conquered. Home worlds will be threatened.
One of the hot titles at this year’s huge Gen Con gaming convention in Indianapolis, Ascendancy has built buzz by producing a solid civ-building board game set in the Star Trek universe. And now that we’ve had a chance to put its starships through their paces, we agree. This is a terrific title—though it’s not a “board game” at all. Ascendancy’s unusual galaxy-building mechanism makes it one of the few games that offers players true control over the exploration and development of their empires, and that leads to a unique—and long—experience.
So grab your bat’leth; let’s venture out into uncharted space together.
THIS GAME NOW HAS A RRP OF BETWEEN £75 – £100
