HiTech Miniatures: Elite supersoldiers facing off against hordes of monstrosities aboard a nightmarish spaceship; 6 varied missions provide hours of fun. Mission: Katharsis is a tactical boardgame for 2 players. Meticulously crafted with dark future enthusiasts in mind, it takes place in year 3999, aboard an ARC-class spaceship. Gameplay is based on six-sided dice and is further enhanced by over 300 cardsrepresenting monsters, ship locations, as well as unexpected twists that may come about in the bowels of the vast spaceship. The inclusion of cards adds depth to the experience and makes it different with each play. At the same time, having part of the rules on cards instead of the manual makes it easier for new players to get the hang of the basics and spares them the hours of slogging through the rulebook before breaking the game out for the first time.
One of the players assumes command of an elite squad of the Sacred Liquidators. Liquidators are true heroes in the world of Warhell. Through their devotion to the Popess, extensive training, and unswerving faith, they’re capable of completing any mission. Only thanks to warriors like these may humanity hope to win the uneven war against evil. Each of the Liquidators belongs to a different faction and boasts a unique set of skills. It’s up to the player to mold this group of mavericks into an unstoppable killing machine. Should he fail, he’ll lose, and the humanity will face its greatest threat yet.
The other player takes on the role of the demonic being controlling the Arc. His task is to thwart the Liquidators by whittling them down. The monsters he’ll throw at the elite warriors are no match for them. But blow by blow, the heroes will be worn down until they collapse of exhaustion. How many monsters die in the process is irrelevant... The Arc’s controller will have under his command all manner of demons as well as the ship’s mechanical guards, twisted by the powers of darkness. The demented AI overseeing the Arc will also be his ally – sudden room decompression, gun turrets, phony maps, terminals bursting into flames... All to help defeat the Liquidators.
