This Is Where The Stars Died

From the creator of Quill and English Eerie comes a new type of wargame.

The year is 5300AD and the galaxy is ablaze. The ones designed to aid us in our quest for human perfection rebelled and now our rotting flesh hangs from their chrome bones. They are the Basilisk - an artificial intelligence hivemind whose sole purpose is to reconfigure mankind into a vision of its self.

It is the new God.

The last worlds of humanity - now under the banner of Bastion, suffer constant bombardments, infiltration, and invasion from the Basilisk. Deep within the Tintagel Spire the Last Pendragon, monarch of man, leads his forces again the machine masses. But for every planet defended, one succumbs to reconfiguration.

This is where Bastion makes its last stand.

This Is Where The Stars Died is a wargame like no other, shunning miniatures and measurements for a non-linear narrative that unfolds on the battlefield. Using a deck of regular cards one or two players will use a number of tags to form conflicts as the Bastion of humanity fights for freedom against the ever-evolving AI Basilisk. 

• Solo gameplay putting you in the general's seat, taking your troops onto the battlefield and dynamically creating narratives.
• No miniatures or play space? No problem. This Is Where The Stars Died is a fully theatre of the mind experience. 
• Conflict resolution - a simple higher or lower mechanic coupled with options to push, make a desperate stand, and call for re-enforcements adds mechanical teeth to the experience.
• Play over campaigns or settle down for a quick skirmish game, alone or with a friend.
• Can be played in person, online and asynchronously on platforms like Discord - the perfect wargame for the busy gamer.
• Everything is randomly generated so you will never play the same game twice.
