Black Metro: Revised Edition

Welcome to Black Metro, a chaotic and dystopian city entrenched in a science-fiction setting, and at odds with the rising empire.

Might is right but not to the extent of blatant physical violence. After all, there would be no purpose governing a city if all of its subjects were dead! One could say that the city is ruled with a loose, iron fist. A controlled chaos if you will.

Despite the seemingly imposing nature of the city and its inhabitants, it is not a rundown place. On the contrary, there is ample opportunity to rise to power. But only for those ambitious and daring enough to brave their way through whatever stands against them; be that openly or from within the shadows.

The current Overlord of Black Metro intends to vacate his seat of power. Therefore there is an opportunity for a worthy individual to take the mantle and rule over the dark city. To find a successor, a challenge has been issued to potential candidates.

Black Metro Board Game: Revised Edition is a strategic area control game where players battle each other to amass the most power and become the next ruler of the dark city. Gather resources to research powerful technologies, build fortifications and upgrade units. Control districts through military strength and dominate your opponents. Gain massive power through syndicate support and mission objectives.

Features:

• Workers have dual use: Winning spaces and using spaces
• Winning spaces prevents other players from fully using them
• Spread workers to use more spaces or consolidate for control
• Powerful technologies to ‘mix and match' playstyles
• Manipulate objectives to serve your best interest

Because Black Metro is akin to a sandbox game, there are various pathways a player can take to ultimately claim victory. Players acquire power throughout the game by dominating districts, fulfilling missions and receiving syndicate backings. Players acquire power at the end of the game based on their total strength, number of researched technologies and stocked resources. Depending on a player's play style, the ratio of where their power comes from, will vary.
