WARS™ TCG takes place in our Solar System, 400 years into mankind's
future. Humanity is fractured and split over three groups. The Earthers
live in a heavily structured and corporate Earth. The Gongen are the remnants
of some of Earth's Asian societies who colonized and then declared independence
on Mars. The Mavericks are the misfits of humanity that populate the moons
of Jupiter. Two additional factions enter play when an arrogant and dominating
species known as the Shi enter our Solar System, pursued by the monstrous
Quay who have suffered thousands of years of slavery at the hands of the
Shi.
The story from Decipher fits perfectly into the gameplay mechanics of
Decipher's popular Star Wars CCG, a top seller from 1995-2001. Some of the
industry's top artists, as well as some talented up-and-comers, provided
the images in WARS TCG.
"If you're a true gamer and you're looking for the most strategic game,
then WARS™ is for you," said Kallenbach. "WARS™ TCG has more to
offer than the standard card-flipping in other games. You use every card
in your deck; all of the cards have game text, you battle in two different
theaters and have multiple battles per turn. Plus, our Samurai have guns,
so it's a lot of fun to play."
WARS™ TCG is available at hobby gaming stores worldwide, and has
already been translated into German. Other languages are currently under
negotiations.
