StarCraft: The Board Game - Missions Variant

last updated February 8th, 2024 — created February 16th, 2017

We created a variant that we use sometimes, though our favorite way to play is using the Brood War Expansion Scenarios. This variant is designed to force players to wage war and limit "camp and build" strategies. The variant includes custom printable cards to be cut out and played with. We have also included SVG cut files for the cards if you have a cutting machine. The variant has been adapted to work with the base game, though it's best if you have the Brood War Expansion components.

StarCraft: The Board Game
Foam-Core Insert
For this insert, we decided to make player trays for the base game box and store all the other components in the expansion box.
Skirmish Boards
We designed skirmish boards with magnetic legs allowing them to be placed over the game area to resolve table space limits.
Other Variant Projects
World of WarCraft: The Board Game
We have found that it is better to play this game fully cooperatively instead of as 2 factions. It's faster, more exciting, and has less downtime.
D&D Adventure Board Games
We wanted to construct our own campaign-style game involving all of our D&D games. The result is this adventure book for the first four games.
Mage Knight Board Game
Much like our variants for Runebound 2nd Edition, these variants are designed to speed up gameplay, allow players to level faster, and nerf taking wounds.
Runebound Second Edition
This is our approach to a wildly improved market mechanic. Instead of a single market stack, you have six distinct shops.
Runebound Second Edition
These rule variants are designed to streamline gameplay and make it much, much faster. Faster level ups, item acquisition, and nerfed knock outs.
World of WarCraft: The Adventure Game
For balance reasons we removed a space near Undercity and are restricting the use of Grumbaz Crowsblood to solo play.
Harry Potter: Mystery at Hogwarts
These variants are designed to clarify rules, plug rule holes, etc.
Chaostle
This variant serves to bring a bit more balance to gameplay and speed it up a great deal. At least 1d10 (one 10 sided die) is required to use these variants.
