Tacticians prepare! Tactical dice placement board game lovingly crafted by Ejected Planet, Dice Command, is coming to Kickstarter this Fall.
According to its website Dice Command is a “semi-abstract tactical wargame” for 2 to 4 players. In this game, players go head-to-head in a “tug of war style battle“. Players must carefully build up their armies and technology while adjusting to their opponents movements. In order to become victorious in Dice Command, players must fight their opponent’s army and force their way through the enemy’s Front Line.
Each player has a Command Center which contains their core actions. With this the player chooses when to build their army, attack or defend, or research powerful upgrades to improve and streamline the Command Center itself. Each player begins their turn by rolling the dice, then assigning those dice to Units, Credits and Research Tokens based on their rolled values while using Tactical Advantage Cards to improve their current situation. They are then able to play move their units across the field to strategically advance or defend as the moment requires. On the battlefield you fight for control of different facilities. As long as you’re able to maintain these locations, you gain access to their powerful effects and abilities. Exploiting your tactical advantages is the key to victory.
Dice Command is available to play FOR FREE right now! You will need to create a free account on Tabletopia in order to get a taste of what this game is all about with your friends online. Ejected Planet intends for the The Dice Command Kickstarter to provide them the funds necessary to manufacturer and distribute a physical version of the game. They also believe it will allow them to make some needed tweaks to card and ability values in the name of balance and fairness. You can follow Ejected Planet on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram for updates and more. If this sounds like something that interests you, take a crack at it and let us know what you think.
