Grimdark Future: Firefight

About this board game

Grimdark Future: Firefight is a sci-fi miniatures game for exactly two players, played in about 90 minutes with a handful of 28mm miniatures.

Released in 2018, the game delivers an action-packed skirmish in a compact format. Rather than requiring a large collection of miniatures, it focuses on the moments created by a small number of figures facing one another.

Its dynamic mechanics give the surrounding environment an important role in the action. Characters can move beyond simply confronting their foes directly, using the battlefield to create dramatic and dangerous situations.

• Play with just a handful of 28mm miniatures.
• Use dynamic mechanics to jump onto foes from ledges.
• Kick opponents into deadly terrain.

These features make every encounter feel active and unpredictable, as elevated positions and hazardous areas become part of the skirmish. A ledge can offer an opportunity to attack from above, while nearby deadly terrain can become a threat to anyone pushed into it.

Grimdark Future: Firefight is suited to players looking for a focused sci-fi miniatures experience rather than a game requiring a large force. With two-player play, a 90-minute play time, and mechanics built around bold interactions with foes and terrain, it presents a concise route into an energetic tabletop firefight.
