About the game

Hunters is a cooperative miniatures tabletop game, set in the sci-fi multiverse of Star Breach. While Hunters is a standalone game, the rules for the game expand upon the core mechanics and settings of the Star Breach tabletop game ruleset. Thus, the Star Breach core rules will be often referenced throughout this expansion. The main difference between this expansion and the original game is that Hunters shifts the gaming action of Star Breach from “player vs player” to “players vs game” in a cooperative (co-op) environment. In this rulebook, you will find rules and mission based scenarios for solo play, co-op play up to four players, a campaign system, and a “GM” alternate mode where one of the players—or a 5th additional player—may play as the “game master” against their peers. As with Star Breach, Hunters is a free ruleset allowing players to creatively play with any sci-fi models and within any scifi setting of their choosing. The industry standard of 28-32mm height models and gaming accessories are recommended for play, but the game will do just as well in any other popular gaming scale (such as 15mm). However you choose to use this expansion and the contained rules, I hope you and your gaming group have an absolute blast doing so! Enjoy, and keep your eye on the stars! —description from the designer
