Starfire Game System

The Starfire game system is a board wargame of space combat. The basic system is a tactical system for combat between individual space ships. Additions provide a strategic framework.

While the tactical system is nice, and allows for clean resolution of battles between large fleets, the strategic system is extremely cumbersome, and the designers imply that it tends towards "trench warfare", which is not an advantage.
