Accelerate and Attack!: Aeons of War

Accelerate and Attack! Aeons of War is a starship combat wargame design for fleet actions from Aotrs Shipyards.

The game places the emphasis on tactical decision making and manoeuvre, while providing a technology system comprehensive enough to allow a wide variety of fleet playstyles but without compromising speed of play.

Accelerate and Attack is a generic, open system that can be used with any miniatures. There is no "official" background here; even the sample fleets included are design so that they can be "plugged in" to your existing backgrounds or genre of choice! Players are encouraged to create or adapt their own fleets.

Accelerate and Attack is suited for games of about twenty or more vessels per side for an evening's gaming.

Features:

 Innovative Manoeuvre Factor system and Command and control structure that keeps the record-keeping down to ship damage and the game flowing (no orders to write!)
 Tech level system with up to 20 tech levels
 Over 30 technologies allows enormous variety and versatility in fleet differentiation even between the same tech level
 The "buckets o' D20"-based system* allows for granularity in the tech system while preserving the speed and flow of a mass-dice system.
 Two sample fleets, the alien Vivrathk Aggression and the mysterious Stone Portals, with ship markers and three starter scenarios to get the ball rolling
 170 Pages (including main rules (40 pages), Ship design and technology (68 pages), sample fleets and scenarios (32 pages)).

Accelerate and Attack! comes with two PDF versions, one for single-sided (i.e. regular printing) or digital reading and one with mirrored margins for double-sided printing.

 Or "handful-of-D20 plus the average-dice-table" for the less adventurous!
