About the game
Though most people overlook ancient artifacts left behind by extinct alien civilizations, treasure hunters know their true value. Whether xeno-archaeologists or other scientists trying to understand them, or looters searching for treasures they can turn over for a quick buck, these adventurers are trying to recover as many relics as they can. Relic Worlds Showdown uses the Showdown miniatures rules by innacle Entertainment to recreate skirmish battles in the Relic Worlds universe. In it, players find artifacts and other treasures left behind by long-lost alien civilizations. But the characters must be careful, as these alien races also left behind traps, and fierce monsters remain that will prove a deadly challenge to your faction. In these pages, you will find rules for turning your Showdown game into a Relic Worlds one, and the faction information for the pirates. —description from the publisher
