What is StarCraft: The Board Game

Publisher blurb

Including a total of 180 plastic figures and dozens of unit types, Starcraft: The Board Game features an innovative modular board of varying sizes, which guarantees a new experience each and every game. An exciting card driven combat system allows players to modify and upgrade their faction with a wealth of powerful technologies. Players can unleash a Zergling rush, use powerful Protoss shields to halt an enemy invasion, or even send cloaked Ghosts out to guide nuclear missiles to their target.

Description

In StarCraft: The Board Game, players battle for galactic domination on a dynamic board of interconnected planets. Planetary setup is already part of the game - every player gets two planets to place, and will place their starting base on one of them. Planets are connected with direct and "Z-Axis" connections that are placed during setup, but can sometimes later be modified during the game, and movement is only possible within planets and through those connections (by means of purpose-built transports).

Maybe a bit unbalanced with the special victory conditions, at least on the first plays. It's like a light Twilight Imperium III. The Brood War expansion improves it drastically and it's a must if you want to experience this game's potential.

Mejor de lo que esperaba. Fallan un tanto las condiciones de victoria.

Se lo regalaron a Javi en Julio de 2009 por su cumpleaños, pero no lo ha probado aún. Se lo pedí yo hallá por septiembre y cuando conocí a Marc, que sí lo había jugado, tuve ocasión de echar una partida (sencilla) con él. Es un juego de evolución y construcción de tecnologías y tal. No recuerdo los detalles, pero sí que puedo afirmar que el juego está bastante bien. Tiene una interesante mecánica de pila de acciones que puede dar lugar a más de una sopresa. En cuanto a materiales.. un diez. Tiene unas cuatrocientas miniaturas preciosas.
