Thrust!

Thrust! is A Space Combat Microgame Inspired by Very Bad Chess by Zach Gage and the Upcoming Ship Combat Rules From the Mothership Shipbreakers’ Toolkit. It also features secret board gameplay, giving it a vibe best described as Space Battleship.

To play, you randomly choose four space ships that will be your fleet for the game. Combat is quick and brutal, running out of fuel is as big of a threat as violence. Each time a ship is damaged, there are permanent consequences. Every game will be unbalanced and unique, and this is by design, you need to think on your toes using the ships available to you. The winner is the last person with a surviving ship.
