Modiphius Entertainment has announced the pre-order for a stand-alone scenario-driven variation of the popular Five Parsecs from Home tabletop game, Five Parsecs from Home: Tactics.

Five Parsecs from Home: Tactics is now available for pre-order. The new variation takes adventure wargaming from starports and back alleys to the battlefields of Unified Space. This scenario-focused version of Five Parsecs from Home is all about creativity, where players can make their own scenarios for the troops they choose.

The new game can be played solo or with friends, in single games or campaigns, with or without a Game Master. It also allows players to take Five Parsecs beyond small skirmishes to multi-unit battles: big tanks, big monsters, big events, and platoons of troops slugging it out. It features an array of troops, characters, creatures, and situations and is packed with random tables to keep players facing the unexpected.

Five Parsecs from Home: Tactics is also a stand-alone game, yet fully compatible with the original 5PFH game, with rules for transferring characters and events between the systems.

Players can choose from multiple game modes including campaign gaming, pick-up play, solo gaming or combined games, which involves blending these options.
