Game Details

The Trederran Strike Team is an elite fighting squad of alien special forces soldiers, deployed on dangerous missions by the High Command of their Trederran Nation. This Expansion includes the new Trederran Team Heroes, with 4 unique types of Trederrans to play as—the Sargeant, leading the team with grim determination, the Legionnaire, an elite soldier pulled from the front lines, the Specialist, a master in using the various Weapons of War, and the Engineer, a demolitions and tech expert. This allows players to take on the role of a team of alien Anti-Heroes for the first time. This Expansion includes all of the Heroes, Miniatures, and cards needed to play as a Trederran Strike Team, including Trederran Personal Items, Starting Gear, Upgrades and Skill Tree, Trederran Faction cards that let you choose the Nation your team is fighting for (or if you want to have a combined Strike Team from different Nations, coming together for a unified goal), Team Ability cards (with unqiue Team Abilities for each of the 6 major Trederran Nations), Encounters unique to playing as Trederrans, and 6 new Missions, allowing your Strike Team to venture into other worlds on raids for Dark Stone or resources, to set up toxic gas generators, assassinate a target, or even deploy a dreaded Doomsday Device! Five Trederran Hero miniatures are included: A Male and Female Trederran Sergeant, and a Legionnaire, Specialist, and Engineer that can be used for either gender (they are wearing helmets and protective gear). Sergeant – A veteran of many campaigns, the Sergeant is a grizzled soldier who charges into the fray, leading his men on deadly missions. Armed with a Sergeant’s Sabre and Master Forged Trench Pistol, he closes with deadly speed to engage his foes up close and personal, while giving Commands to his unit. Legionnaire – Pulled from the Trenches to go on special operations as part of the Strike Team, the Legionnaire is the best at what he does. Equipped with the full trench gear, Shatter Grenades, and weaponry of a front lines soldier, he is a crack shot, armed to the teeth! Engineer – The Engineer is a master of tech and demolitions, brandishing an Arc Light Pistol and using the latest in Trederran technology with an array of Dark Stone powered gadgets. Utilizing stealth over sheer force, the Engineer helps the team to overcome obstacles, locate their objectives, and is the best equipped to set up toxic gas generators and other nefarious devices. Specialist – Heavily armored and trained in the use of a variety of powerful Weapons of War, the Specialist can select a different Special Weapon at the start of each Adventure, to suit the needs of the mission. Whether wielding a Grenade Launcher, a Dragon Fire Thrower, a Light Machine Gun, or even a brutal Chain-Blade, the Specialist adds extra punch to the Strike Team’s arsenal. —description from the publisher
