Hacía bastante tiempo que estaba en la carpeta de futuras creaciones de FFG, pero pocas noticias salían respecto a su producción.
Hoy FFG, nos muestra unas cuantas imágenes del que puede ser un superventas y que sigue la línea iniciada por Wow, Starcraft y Doom.
Basado en una conocida saga de videojuegos para Xbox 360 y Pc, llega Gears of War, y por las imágenes, da la sensación que puede ser una nueva vuelta de tuerca al famosos SpaceHulk, eso sí, parece que sera para 1-4 jugadores.
Humanity’s golden age came to a sudden and
violent end on Emergence Day. Within 24 hours, a quarter of all human life on
Sera was wiped out, and billions more were lost in the conflict that followed –
an unending war that has reduced the planet’s surface to a smoking ruin. Now,
one final desperate stand is all that remains to prevent the total annihilation
of the human race. Gather your team. You are humanity’s last hope.
Fantasy Flight Games is thrilled to announce the
upcoming release of Gears
of War™: The Board Game! This fully cooperative design by Corey
Konieczka pits 1–4 players against a cunning and relentless foe, and is based on
the wildly popular series of third-person shooters by Epic Games.
Build your team from any of four COG soldiers and
face an intelligent game system in one of seven randomly constructed scenarios.
In Gears of War: The Board Game, you’ll relive classic moments from
Gears of War™ and Gears of War 2™. Roadie Run into cover, spray
your enemy with blind fire, or rip him in half with your Lancer’s chainsaw!
Stand together against the Locust
horde
Teamwork is essential in Gears of War: The Board
Game, as you and your fellow COGs will secure areas in an ever-expanding and
randomized map, lay down suppressing fire to support each other’s movements, and
rush to the aid of fallen allies – all in an effort to complete your mission
objective.
Also essential is the careful use of the tools at
your disposal: a range of tactical options and devastating weapons. Your hand of
Order cards represents your COG’s spectacular battle prowess, and on each turn
you’ll discard one to either use its listed ability, move across the map, or
attack. 
You can even hold on to these versatile Orders,
discarding them to dodge or guard against incoming attacks, or to follow closely
behind a teammate. Communication is key, and the most successful COGs recognize
that together, they form a deadly machine.
A variety of missions offer vast
replayability
The seven included missions deliver a range of
objectives, from placing a sonic resonator deep in the Locust-infested earth to
escaping the attack of a raging Berserker. What’s more, each mission is randomly
constructed every time you play, using an ingenious map creation system to
ensure that no two games are ever exactly alike.
Adding to this element of unpredictability is a
terrifyingly intelligent game system that keeps the pressure constant, while
lending each type of foe an individual style of play. As Drones cautiously fire
on you from cover and Boomers lob grenades from elevated positions, you’ll swear
that there’s a deliberate and sinister tactical purpose behind every move the
Locusts make.
Learn more on our Gears
of War: The Board Game website, then gather your team. Humanity teeters
on the brink of annihilation, and only you and your fellow COGs can drive the
Locust horde back!
