ActA is a new set of rules – in tone, it's designed for light record keeping, and initiative driven I-Go/U-Go movement. The minis are made from the same masters that B5W minis were done from.

Congrats, Matt, on the award!

The game of Babylon 5 space combat, A Call to Arms, won the Gamer's Choice of Miniatures Games at the Origins Awards this year! Our heartfelt thanks to everyone who voted - it was much appreciated and it means a lot to us.

A Call to Arms box set

A Call to Arms features a fast and quick-to-learn system that nonetheless allows players to re-enact everything they saw on the TV series of Babylon 5, from one-on-one ship duels to massed fleets battling for the fate of the galaxy. The box set comes complete with rules, fleet book and counters to represent the ships - but, a year on from the initial release of the game, the full miniatures line is now also available.

The first major evolution of A Call to Arms is due for release next month - a hardback supplement entitled Sky Full of Stars. Introducing new rules for boarding actions, space stations, advanced fleets, campaigns and much more, Sky Full of Stars is set to catapult A Call to Arms into one of the broadest space combat games on the market. New ships and fleets are also being worked on at the moment, allowing players to field everything from the latest in Earth Alliance design to Dilgar and Drakh fleets.
