Description

The Battle of Dulcimer Strait is a 2 player sci-fi tactical wargame where players go head-to-head in battle using 7 ships, skill cards and dice rolls. Games can last between 30 to 60 min depending on game play options. Each ship uses specific movements and rules letting the player develop different strategies for different situations.

Two factions had been at peace for over a century. New leadership has lead to strained relations between the two. War had been looming for many years. It would take only one small spark to begin a war known as the Broken Alliance War. On May, 24th 2463 a small squadron of the United Planets of Earth fighter ships and bombers were escorting the USS Zumwalt 3 DDG(X)1011 Battleship through the small corridor of space known as the Dulcimer Strait. They met the Villtarian Federation Battleship, The Grawling. It was flanked by fighter ships and bombers of the royal Villtarian military. Both sides were fairly matched and as for who fired the first shot is still up to debate.
