Description
At the furthermost tip of the galaxy burns a small white star. Here lie the remnants of the First Born, an advanced civilization that conquered the galaxy long ago but found themselves utterly alone, and brought low by civil war. One war-like faction placed themselves into suspended animation and waited.
For millions of years they slept, but they were slowly driven mad. Fanatical and paranoid, they learned to fear and despise the new species that they once longed for.
When the Traders arrived in a seemingly abandoned asteroid field to pick over the bones of a long-dead people, the First Born were awoken…
Core Space: First Born is a solo/co-operative sci-fi miniatures game in which your band of Traders venture into the temples of the First Born, a fanatical alien species that do not welcome intruders!
The game takes place on a detailed 3D board. Your Traders must explore the area, fulfil their objectives, salvage what they can and then escape back to their ship, spending their earnings on desperately-needed repairs. The exciting campaign system will track your crew from game to game, developing their skills, upgrading their equipment and immersing you in their story.
First Born is based on the cyberpunk bestseller Core Space but is a fully standalone game for new and existing players alike.
