Description

In the distant future, humanity has colonized the galaxy and is now fighting for control of the desolate planet Abaddon, where the precious Feronium power crystals are found. Two factions, the Satellite City-States and the Commonwealth Alliance, use giant bio-mech suits called Links to battle for territorial control. With easy-to-learn rules, Abaddon is a furious game of futuristic combat for 2 to 4 players that can be played in just 45 minutes. Players roll Activation Dice to move their units and engage in card- and dice-based combat, using Weapon System cards to target enemy units and Wild Fire cards to represent malfunctions and odd happenings. The game takes place on a customizable battlefield game board, where players must strategically manage their units and resources to achieve victory, typically by destroying enemy units and collecting victory points.
