Description

Core Space: First Born is a sci-fi miniatures board game in which you control a band of Traders venturing into the ancient First Born temples.

The game takes place on the highly- detailed 3D board included in the box. Your Traders must explore the area, fulfil their objectives, salvage what they can and then escape back to their ship, spending their earnings on desperately-needed repairs.

The exciting campaign system will track your crew from game to game, developing their skills, upgrading their equipment and immersing you in their story.

First Born is based on 2019’s cyberpunk bestseller Core Space but is a fully standalone starter set playable by new and existing players alike. It retains the same simple core mechanics and Battle Systems' unique ‘real search’ system while seamlessly integrating this new and mysterious alien race.
