In Blak Dragon, players fight for control of the Sol system after Earth's cities were destroyed by the Warpigs. You command cities and capital ships on a modular 3D hex board. Tactical battles occur on separate maps simulating boarding actions, weapon strikes, and command center locations. The game blends Area Movement, Dice Rolling, and Secret Unit Deployment requiring strategic and tactical planning across orbital cities, asteroid bases, and Martian jungles.
Who Is This Game For?
Blak Dragon targets experienced players who enjoy complex sci-fi wargames. Its 60-minute duration fits an extended game night. Prior experience with tactical dice mechanics and area control is recommended given the mature themes and complexity.
How It Works
Players secretly deploy units (Secret Unit Deployment) on a modular hexagonal 3D board. Movement uses Area Movement while Dice Rolling determines combat outcomes. Hand Management of resources and units over multiple tactical layers—from orbital cities to boarding simulations—adds strategic depth.
What Makes It Special
Designed by Delmer Esau, Blak Dragon offers a unique blend of modular 3D hex board gameplay combined with tactical boarding battles on separate maps.
