'Sandbox style card game with a high level of complexity and "take-that" elements.'

Building upon the core elements of "Shields up!", this card game puts you and your opponent in the unenviable shoes of Chief Engineers - pushing their starships to the absolute limit, in a tense space battle to the death.

Players will have to manage their respective ships' four key systems (Reactor, Life Support, Shields, and Weapons) and implement cunning (and warranty-voiding) modifications to these systems, hoping to push the envelope just enough to destroy their opponents ship without wrecking their own.
