Description

Five Parsecs From Home is a solo adventure wargame where you assemble a ragtag crew of galactic trailblazers and head out to explore the stars, pick up jobs, and every now and then —  engage in some action-packed, sci-fi combat!

Battles are procedurally generated with huge combinations of enemies, weapons, battlefield circumstances and objectives whether fighting rivals or carrying out jobs.

With each encounter you earn experience and loot, progressing your crew and story as you send your crew to look for contacts, trade, explore the colony, recruit replacements or train up their skills.

The game is playable with any miniatures you have on hand and requires only a small number to get started, making it ideal for both experienced and new science fiction gamers. All you need is a few six-sided dice and a couple of ten-sided dice.

5PFH!

I got this digital copy so I can take 5PFH with me when I am waiting. Sometimes you have a hardcopy book, sometimes you don't! I enjoy this game system!

A Universe within a Book

Bought this book on a gamble as I've been looking to scratch a wargaming itch and due to lockdown, family etc, playing against another person is sometimes difficult.

To summarise- this game blew me away. It's like a skirmish game, RPG, and choose your own adventure book all rolled into one.

The Pre and Post battle sequences are just as engaging and fun as the actual battles.

The battles are fast paced, and really play well using an 'AI', letting you feel like you're contesting against a real opponent.

I've just finished my first quest and have murdered two rivals, lost a patron to betrayal and gained a Nemesis who will stalk me through the stars...and that's after 5 games.

I'll be hoovering up every attachment that's released.

By far my top skirmish game.
