About the Game

Starguards of Orion is a solo role-playing wargame (RPG) where you take on the role of a Commander in the elite Orion Starguard — a law enforcement force operating in the fractured systems of the Orion Sector.

Like traditional RPGs, your Commander is your avatar. You will make strategic decisions about:

Training and certifications Outfitting your Modular Command Ship (MCS) Leading tactical missions with your flotilla

Each mission challenges you to protect civilians, neutralize threats, and enforce order in a lawless frontier.

Your tactics are entirely your own but your greatest weapon is the Modular Command Ship (MCS), a vessel far superior to the obsolete Imperial raiders and repurposed civilian vessels you will face.

While enemy ships may swarm in numbers, your MCS combines advanced shielding, powerful weapon systems, and adaptive technologies that scale with your Commander’s skill.

Whether you overwhelm enemies with precision strikes, hold the line with reinforced armor, or disable fleets through electronic warfare, your ship is the centerpiece of each battle and a symbol of your growing influence.

Successful missions earn Influence and Honor, unlocking new systems, elite certifications, and stronger ships. As your reputation grows, so does your authority; leading to high-stakes confrontations with criminal cartels and hostile factions across the Orion Sector.
