Description

In Battlestar Galactica, the
humans must battle for survival against the Cylons. Players band together in
this collaborative game. Each player takes on a character role from the TV
series. Each character has a unique set of abilities including tactics,
leadership, politics, engineering and piloting. Choosing the right mix of
skills at the start of the game is critical to success. The board and the deck
of crisis cards take on the role of the Cylons.



As if the Cylons needed help, the game
can have human spies selected at random to secretly aid their
quest to vanquish the humans.



It will take good planning, adept cooperation and
a little luck with the dice rolls to get through the 3rd space jump necessary
to win. The Cylons need to run the humans out of any one of the following: fuel, food,
morale, or population to win.
