Captain's Companion

Starmada is a tabletop game of starship combat. At its most basic level, players take command of space fleets in a general attempt to reduce each other to just so much space junk. At its most advanced, the game can breathe life into any science-fiction background players might imagine.

The Captain's Companion is a supplement for the Universal Game of Starship Combat, detailing the universe of the Imperial Starmada and its major adversaries.

In addition to background information and 35 starship status displays (SSDs), this book introduces several new rules, weapon traits, and starship systems. Errata and clarifications are provided which update the Starmada Core Rulebook to version 1.2. Finally, we present some initial thoughts on tactics that hopefully will inspire more such discussion in future publications.

New Systems & Optional Rules Include:

  • Escorts
  • Fast Attack Craft
  • Jammers
  • Random Damage Allocation
  • Tenders

… and much more!

The Captain's Companion is not a stand-alone product; you will need a copy of the Starmada Core Rulebook (MJG-0160).
