Wizkids Games: Star Trek Expeditions - A Cooperative Game by Reiner Knizia
Players: 1-4
Ages: 14+
Length: 60 minutes
Star Trek: Expeditions is a board game for up to four players, set in the 'New Universe' of STAR TREK, as seen in the 2009 movie. It is built upon the cooperative board game model and the players will work together against the game itself.
In the game, players assume the roles of Kirk, Spock, Bones, and Uhura. The premise is the Federation has received a petition for membership from a planet and the Enterprise is dispatched to assess their application. When the Enterprise arrives, they discover:
- A Klingon Battle Cruiser is in orbit;
- Civil War is threatening to break out on the planet;
- The planet is reconsidering its application for UFP membership.
Your mission is threefold; defuse the threat of Civil War, deal with the Klingon threat, and get the planet to join the UFP. And you only have 30 days (each day is a turn) to do it in, otherwise a Klingon battle fleet will warp in and you will be forced to withdraw (thus failing your mission).
Each objective is tracked on a scoresheet that monitors your progress. Decisions you make in the game as well as how you interact with the other players will affect the outcome of the mission.
The figures are 3D versions of the four Bridge officers. Unlike Heroclix, the character dials will turn based upon your needs in the game, and the decisions you make, not when you take damage.
This product is built upon an expandable board game model meaning that down the line, new missions and Crew Members will be made available to play other episodes!
