Overview
The Tactical Bomber is a new set of boards, cards and tokens to further expand the Gunship galaxy. Intended for 4-Player battles, the Bomber will offer massive firepower options at the expanse of being slower and less repairable than a Gunship.
Tactical Bomber Boards are landscape in nature and feature 10 Hit Locations, including Wings and a customizable Rear Turret. With 3 Bomb Bays, a multitude of payloads will be available, including high-explosive Nova Bombs and Plasma Bombs, which include a new Fire Mechanic.
This set will also provide a new Attacker/Defender system to the game. One team will be defending a Planet with their Carrier, Gunship and Fighters. The Planet will be the site of a powerful Fortress, which must be assaulted by the Attackers.
The Attackers will have a Carrier, Gunship, Tactical Bomber and their own Fighter Squadrons. The mission objective is the destruction of the Fortress below and team tactics and strategy will be paramount.
Bombing Objectives will be a major part of the upcoming Storyline Mode. An abandoned Fortress can be seen in the Gunship: Afterburners expansion.
New Crewmates relative to the Bomber and Fortress will be announced during the July Kickstarter and available for purchase.
