About the game

What is Xia: Legends of a Drift System

Xia: Legends of a Drift System is a 3-5 player sandbox style competitive space adventure. Each player starts as a lowly but hopeful captain of a small starship.

Players fly their ships about the system, completing a variety of missions, exploring new sectors and battling other ships. Navigating hazardous environments, players choose to mine, salvage, or trade valuable cargo. Captains vie with each other for Titles, riches and, most importantly, Fame.

The most adaptive, risk-taking and creative players will excel. One captain will rise above the others, surpassing mortality by becoming Legend!

Customize: Each player begins the game by choosing and customizing a Tier 1 starship. Invest all your money in engines and be a rapid, yet fragile, explorer. Put all your credits into an uber missile and watch other players flee in terror. Get a small engine and save space and credits to invest in buying and selling cargo. Or create a well rounded ship, ready for anything. In Xia, the choice is always yours.

La idea "general" del juego es muy buena, pero el resultado está a mitad camino. Le ha faltado mucho trabajo más detras en las reglas. Hay muchos detalles que revisándolos, el juego ganaría muchísimo. (Y mucha gente en los foros sugiere muchas ideas, que bien se podrían haber implementado). Y ojo, no me refiero a hacerlo más "euro", eso es cuestión de gustos. Me refiero a jugar mejor con las probabilidades de los dados, y que no se convierta en un tira dados me lo juego todo al azar lineal, sin importar modificaciones de la nave. Por ejemplo, veo absurdo aumentar los equipos y que sigas pudien
