A Psionic Skirmish Wargame

In the shadow of ancient ruins, the battle for tomorrow begins today.

In the year 2050, humanity’s future hinges on the secrets buried within alien ruins, scattered across the desolate plains of Mars and the frozen wastelands of Antarctica. In Solar Sign, players step into a high-stakes battlefield where Earth’s superpowers—NATO, the Chinese Alliance, and more—struggle for supremacy, driven by the allure of ancient technology and psionic power unlocked by an alien fungus, glaciocerebrum psionis. This tactical tabletop wargame lets you command elite squads in gritty skirmishes, combining strategy, story, and supernatural power.

Game Overview

Solar Sign is a mini-agnostic skirmish wargame with a twist. Blending traditional tabletop wargaming with RPG elements, it emphasizes dynamic, narrative-driven combat where the decisions you make ripple through your squad's experience, resources, and future missions. Players will build and customize squads, assign unique psychic abilities, and lead them into battle in missions designed for tactical depth and creative problem-solving.

Key Features

Intricate Backstory & Factions

 Each faction in Solar Sign has a unique backstory and strategic approach. Will you fight for NATO to maintain Earth’s power, ally with the Chinese forces to forge a Martian empire, or work with rogue mercenary groups driven solely by profit? Your choices shape the solar system’s destiny. 

Dynamic Psychic Abilities 

Harness the power of Glaciocerebrum psionis, the ancient alien fungus, and deploy psionics that add thrilling unpredictability to every battle. But beware: the more you use these powers, the higher the risk of neurosis and psychosis, with terrifying consequences.

Command Points & Tactical Play

 Players alternate turns based on Command Points, a system that adds strategic depth and rewards well-planned moves. Manage resources carefully, and balance the cost of advancing your units against the value of holding critical objectives.

Detailed Unit Customization 

Craft your own squad of unique units, from riflemen and snipers to engineers and medics, each with distinct stats, weapons, and abilities. Enhance their equipment, upgrade psychic powers, and make tactical choices that build a squad suited to your style.

A Modular, Replayable Campaign System

 Each session unfolds a new chapter in the ongoing battle for solar dominance, with scalable missions and varying objectives that keep gameplay fresh. Salvage resources, recruit new units, and upgrade your squad as they gain experience in the fight.
