Description

"Board & card game for 2 players. Battle between a Band of Martian Cloudships and a British (Victorian) Expeditionary Force."

"Alternate Fantasy Universe circa late 1800’s. Abstract skirmish level aerial combat. Each figure represents a single Ship (unit). Note: Vessels achieve weightlessness by carrying quantities of distilled Essence of Ether. Victory: You win if you Destroy the opposing Flagship."

The game is played on a chessboard or any other 8x8 grid. Miniatures or counters are used to represent the ships. Each player has eight ships and a unique deck of cards. The cards are central to the play of the game as card play determines when units may move, attack, and defend.
