“Sound general alert, and order the Tyrannor to divert all power to their laser cannons. Let’s make them think twice about moving into boarding range.”
Cage Free Games is proud to announce Admirals: Star Strike!, a strategic fleet combat game where you and your opponent command rival task forces in a distant galaxy!
As the debut game using our Admirals game engine, Star Strike pits the various races of the Grandis galaxy against each other over the course of 6 turns. Each player commands a small fleet of starships vying for control over disputed territory, assigning Order Cards to their vessels each turn to improve their capabilities. Ships move around the hex grid board, and must make the best use of their armaments to ensure the destruction of their foes.
Admirals: Star Strike is a game for 2 players ages 12 and up, and each 6-turn match takes 30-60 minutes to play. Players can play pick-up games, or play through narrative campaigns where their fleet can grow and access new vessel designs with each game played.
We’re very excited to bring this game and the Grandis galaxy to your tables! Over the next few weeks, we’ll be posting resources for you to print and play the Alpha edition, as well as making the same Alpha available on Tabletop Simulator. If you’re ready to sign up for the Nataran Imperial Navy or Accords Defense Forces now, check out our new merch site to show us some support and help us build this game, and follow us on Facebook and/or Twitter to keep up to date with release information!
Before we go, one last snippet: a little preview of the Ship Cards for the Nataran C15 Battlecruiser and Accords Dictata Heavy Cruiser, two powerful Heavy vessels coming with the Alpha release of the game! We’ll cover more about Ship cards in a future development blog, but feel free to send us any questions you have about these two rival vessels (if they look familiar, that’s because you saw them at the top of this post as well!)

If you’re a fan of either of these vessels already and want to show your support, our merch shop is currently having a sale – 15% off all purchases to celebrate the announcement of Admirals: Star Strike!
Have a great day, and don’t fret – more Star Strike information is coming very soon!
