Sunder the Stars: LAUNCH!



Click on image for bigger picture!

SUNDER THE STARS core rules are available for download, along with fleet record sheets, counters, a QRS, and some other goodies. And it's free. Just go here: http://home.dejazzd.com/broadsword/Sunder_the_Stars/StS_Index_Page.html

Sunder the Stars is a space fleet combat game that can be played on a hex board or open table.

It is designed to handle task force actions and fleet engagements.

All combat is determined by opposed rolls.

Initiative-based, individual activations for ships and squadrons.

A simple mechanism allows for each ship's combat effectiveness to degrade as it takes damage.

The game does not require a control sheet for each individual ship, only each type of ship in your fleet and a few "counters" for special situations.

Plenty of optional rules to tailor the game to your style of play.

Ship and fleet construction rules are included.


Supplemental material is being developed: star bases and planetary facilities, new fleets, a campaign system, etc. These future releases will be announced on this blog.
