Space Infantry: Resurgence

About this board game

Space Infantry: Resurgence is a 2019 sci-fi mission game for 1–2 players, with sessions lasting about 60 minutes. Players command an elite squad of veteran sci-fi soldiers as they fight through random obstacles to reach an objective.

The game centers on using only the tools the squad brings along and whatever it can scrounge from the environment. Its updated systems replace the series’ chit-based random number generation with physical dice, while static maps give way to randomized locations arranged on a set layout.

Mission goals are represented by node cards. Rather than printing nodes directly on the mission sheet, players draw cards from a node deck and place them on an 11 x 17 map sheet as the mission progresses. This creates a changing path toward the objective.

• Physical dice replace chit-based random number generation.
• Randomized locations use a set map layout.
• Node cards are drawn and placed during mission progress.
• The node deck can be divided into encounter types such as zero-G, hazardous terrain, and science facility.

Space Infantry: Resurgence also introduces cooperative play and brings together every module from LnLP and the game’s developer. The included material features New Worlds, Hordes mode, Steele Bones, and The Last Outpost, alongside new components, systems, and artwork.
