Snap Ships Tactics – Kickstarter

Welcome to the future, where humanity is under constant attack from a brutal alien threat. The Komplex spreads through the galaxy and grows stronger with each system they conquer.

To defeat them, humanity relies on an elite team, the Forge: pilots of an armada of spacecraft known as Snap Ships. Fast attack craft, armored bombers, and so much more, the Snap Ships are designed to be modular to build the perfect ships for battle. In Snap Ships Tactics, each player builds a squadron of Snap Ships and commands them in tactical combat over a series of rounds.

Destroy the ships in your opponent’s squadron to win! Will you join the Komplex in their domination or aid the Forge in defending Earth?

SNAP SHIPS TACTICS is a revolutionary miniatures battle game you play with modular, fully customizable ship models. Because the best ship is the one you design!

So what do you get with customizable Snap Ship toys and tactical space warfare? Snap Ship Tactics. Snap Ships toys were developed in 2005 and have grown vastly in popularity. They are now available just about everywhere that toys are sold. We now come to a tabletop strategy game using the popular toy. The game allows for designing space ships, then building them for 2 person tabletop PvP battles, solo play, or 2 versus 2 games.
