One would think the whales to be the first victim of a gods interference with the natural order and sink to the bottom of their floating seas. However, the gentle beasts couldn't swim any deeper. Against their will they rose out of the water, above the surface, and into a vast new world. The first mortal beings of Targus, the sky whales. Witness to the chaotic experiment we call life. Their entire species evolved out of the water in trade for the depths of the planet's sky. For it was a vast planet. One that the gods hid some of their greatest treasures.


Targus skies are an uncharted part of the world. It once was the home of the gods, and their divinity has made the stones of the floating mountains precious. Even though the Commonwealth pioneers the rich skies for their own, there will always be those who wish to stake their own claim. Targus should be so lucky to have Pirate King Jack lead and organize the criminals of the air, for he is an honorable man and once a general back in the days of Malack's War. Although a leader of pirates, Jack has seen the destitute between the cracks of the Commonwealth's society. He sees clearly the grave costs of the Cortezian capitalism, and he will band as many pirates as he can in order to weed out the corruption that greed spreads. If not, then to at least feed the ones overlooked in society.


A nation born of godless gypsies, the Commonwealth has brought Targus into a new age. Their restoration of the SkyShips has lifted the vagabond people from forever wandering the Targus floor. Above, they have found a true home amongst the floating mountains. Since then the day when an entire nation of people rose from the floor, was forever known in Targus history as "The Ascension". The Commonwealth people have only to thank their nation's leaders and founders, the Cortez Family. The first mixed race of beings on Targus, the Cortez Family have pulled themselves out of heresy through charm and trade, and they have established one of the most influential nations. They alone allocated all resources that brought the world into a new era, and they have laid claim to the most precious riches of the planet. However, a claim's legitimacy is carried only to those that adhere.

Key points to Sky Relics

Customization-Command your SkyShips as you see fit. Each SkyShip is completely customizable from your weapons to your crew. With many modifications to choose from, your SkyShip and your battle will be specifically your own.

Minatures-Each miniature is a hand-crafted SkyShip up to 1:2400 in scale, and each is unpainted for your artistic convenience.

Multiple Success Resolution -Sky Relics uses dice rolls to resolve all situations in the games. Attacking? Roll a die. Completing tough objectives? Roll a die. Upgrading your captain? Roll the die.

Variety of Play-Alongside the distinct war gaming skirmish battles, discover the greatest mysteries of Targus in the adventure mode. New quests and challenges will consistently update and expand your captain's story.

Tactics and Strategy-Combat in Targus skies is fast-paced, brutal, and risky. Sky Relic cards will enhance your SkyShip, sabotage your opponents, and even change the playing field!

Neat ship designs--could be used for more than just this game, methinks.

$80 USD lowest level pledge (other than "Here's a $1 USD, spend it well,") if I am reading this correctly.

Sorry, I am out. Too much money to try a new game IMO and I have enough starships currently for my own gaming purposes.

Not trying to talk you 'back in', but will point out you can download the rules, so you at least can see if they entice.

An old Aeronef player, I've been feeling an embarrassment of riches with all the new games, and fleets to go with them.

This is not a game review.

Indeed, it's an advertisement.

Im looking forward to painting these in fleet colours and wargaming. Im of the age that missed out on Battlefleet Gothic and even Babylon 5 Miniatures. This is a niche of gaming that is sadly lacking in my collection. I merely linked it for people to view and comment so that in a few months time when i game and add pics and battle reports it will have some base of reference and roots to grow from.
