Beyond the Gates of Antares

Beyond the Gates of Antares Beyond the Gates of Antares is a Science Fiction wargame, written by Rick Priestley and Tim Bancroft. http://www.gatesofantares.com

In a war-torn universe advanced human societies are bound in a bitter struggle for control of inter-dimensional gateways between worlds – the Gates of Antares. It is a war fought across a million planets and in the depths of space. It is a war that has raged for thousands of years. Now it is a war that threatens not just the existence of worlds but the fabric of space-time itself – as a new and te

rrible discovery reveals the most destructive force ever created – the Xilos Horizon. The armies of the PanHuman Concord include the most effective weapons, the best equipped troops, and the most advanced fighting drones in all of Antarean space. When the forces of the Concord Combined Command move upon the world of Xilos they are in for a shock – for they have been beaten to it! The world has been occupied by a battlegroup of the brutal Ghar Empire. The Ghar are bio-engineered troopers created in millennia past to fight a war now long forgotten – but unfortunately no one told the Ghar! Implacable and without mercy the Ghar prepare for war – for war is all they know. Beyond the Gates of Antares is a new science-fiction skirmish wargame, written by Rick Priestley(creator of Warhammer 40,000), that pitches technologically advanced human civilizations into a conflict that no one can afford to lose. The game is rich in detail and extremely ambitious in scope with initial rules and army lists that describe six different Antarean factions: the PanHuman Concord, the Ghar Empire, the Isorian Senatex, the Algoryn Prosperate, the Freeborn Vardos, and the Boromite Guilds. Beyond the Gates of Antares game play makes use of the successful and exciting dice activation system first pioneered in Warlord’s popular Bolt Action WW2 wargame – ensuring that both sides remain active and engaged throughout every game. Resolution is by ten-sided dice offering considerable expansion and great range of detail compared to traditional six-sided dice. Strike Vector one: The Xilos Horizon is the battle starter set for Beyond the Gates of Antares. Our starter set contains everything you need to start gaming including complete tabletop wargame rules army list, battle scenarios and two opposing forces: the Concord and Ghar.

*GOA UPDATE*

We have had a flurry of concerned GoA citizens come through to Warlord and Skytrex's inbox as of late, and I would like to take the opportunity to update the community as it stands.

Firstly, thanks to all the GoA community for their hard work and enthusiasm in keeping this system alive. And specifically to Tim and Rick, as they of course are the real heroes of this range.

Secondly, I want to say that we are continuously updating and reviewing the move to Skytrex and our customers are our top priority.

Here are the facts at they stand:
- Warlord will be continuing the current range of Antares until the end of June.
- As of July, we at Skytrex will be taking over the range and production of the system.
- In addition to the current range, we will have some new goodies to go with V2.
- We are currently undergoing a range review of what is and isn't in the new V2 which Tim has painstakingly laid out for us.

I want to reiterate that the initial plan is to move the range to Skytrex. As long as there is demand for the V1 products, we will simply cast to order those items which are no longer in V2. Should this change, we will of course update and give the community ample chance to get their lists completed.

Additionally, I will personally be at the Bootcamp later this month to get to know the community, hear any questions or concerns they may have, and support them with their hobby.

I hope this puts fears to rest, but please feel free to comment below anything I have forgotten to address and I will do my best to answer.

Many thanks,
Rey
