A tactical level simulation of combat between a small number of StarSoldiers, powerful future warriors - shades of Starship Troopers. Firmly rooted in SPI wargaming - along with the usual complexity and breadth of rules. One notable about the game is that it has simultaneous plotted movement - manageable since each player only controls 3 - 12 warriors. There are many scenarios and a campaign as well.

Designer's Note: As people who are familiar with the Dunnigan treatment of 20th Century tactical combat in Sniper! and Patrol will note, the broad outlines of StarSoldier have much in common with those two earlier SPI games.

Part of the StarForce Trilogy box set, along with StarForce and Outreach.
