 Preface
Last Saga is set in a universe of science fiction where different factions fight against each other.
Humanity has reached the stars and it is in an open confrontation between the races that inhabit them.
Battles take place between elite groups in different locations, where there is important information to
recover, resources to reclaim, etc. The keys to victory are: proper composition of the group, knowledge of
the enemy, correct use of weapons and equipment, and taking advantage of the terrain, among others.
All this seasoned with the luck factor.
Last Saga is a wargame based on miniatures of 32mm. Players represent, with these miniatures, the
units of the Combat Force under their control, usually using between 6 and 15 of them. The appropriate
scenery on a table of the right size represents the battleground where confrontation takes place.
This book contains all the information necessary to play Last Saga.

Last Saga takes place in a distant future, in which the galaxy is the stage and the actors are the
different evolved life forms that populate it. Each one of these races understands its existence
in a different way, reason why their motivations and interests collide. This inevitable conflict is
represented in Last Saga games.
Before starting a game of Last Saga, players must make sure that all the material to be used is
ready, so preparations before the game starts are as fluid as possible.
This chapter introduces the framework where Last Saga takes place, and some previous concepts
about wargames and the elements that are used in game are explained.

Not even in the most extravagant dreams of

of Saanar, a planet of harsh conditions where life

Parallel to this innovative technology, the
Uruhvel seem to have developed an aversion
towards Titan technology; in addition to not using it
in any of its forms, they actively seek it to destroy it
wherever new discoveries of this lost civilization are
made.

The way tor aderstand Saanar life is clear and

return, unless doing so benefit is greater. With this
leitmotiv, the Saanar culture focuses on the pillage,
blackmail, robbery and kidnapping. Trade in goods
and services is also important, in its particular way
of understanding it.
The structure of the Sanaar people is totally
delocalized. The warriors are grouped around the

power, the knowledge of those who once were the

The last saga of the galaxy begins.

What they want, why they do what they do, and

especially, why that cruel silence. These are the
questions that define the spectre of the galaxy;
ghosts that only appear to bring terror to the minds
of other races. One of the biggest mysteries yet to
be solved.
Floating through space on their gigantic ships,
the Uruhvel are the only race that has developed an
advanced technology of its own not based on that
of the Titans.
Uruhvel bioengineers have specialized in unique

capable of a systematic creation of new symbiotic
life forms that associate their own organisms.
These symbionts grow and develop to fulfil diverse
functions: communication, life support, even

7
Necessary elements
To play a Last Saga game, the following elements
are needed:
Miniatures
Miniatures included in any of the Starter Packs
are enough to play introductory games. Miniatures
are the physical representation of the units; the
terms unit and miniature will be used equally.
The group of miniatures or units controlled by
a player is called Combat force. Units composing
such Combat force are called “allies” between them,
while units composing other Combat force are
called “enemies”.
Each unit or miniature is independent from the
others, unless specified otherwise.
Rulebook and Quick reference cards
A copy of this rulebook; sometimes is necessary
to have a quick look to a rule, so having it at hand
is advisable. A set of Quick reference rules is also
advisable, with the similar purpose of offering a
quick look to the application of any rule.
Markers, Counters, Profiles and Templates
Those items serve as quick visual information of
what is going on a game, also helping to measure
distances and effects on the Battleground
• Templates: used by some equipment to determine
the area affected by them.
• Markers: those indicate the state of a unit on a
given moment. A unit can have only one marker of
the same type, at the same time.
• Counters: used to allocate a resource.
• Profiles: they determine the visibility of a unit
when the miniature is far from a neutral combat
pose.
At the end of this rulebook you can find all these
elements ready to be printed and used in Last Saga
games.
Remember
Distances
During Last Saga games, players can measure
any distance anytime they need it (e.g.
between miniatures, weapon ranges, etc.).
This avoids situations like assigning an invalid
action to a unit while erasing this source of
subjectivity in the tactical decision process.
Scenery
Scenery represents the battleground, the
localization where the Combat forces confront in
Last Saga universe. Those localizations can vary a
lot: rocky deserts, strange jungles, orbital stations
or battleships are only a few examples.
Scenery is a crucial element in Last Saga games.
It offers an essential tactical component for the
game system, so it is strongly advised to use a lot of
it for the units to be able to take cover, flank enemy
positions, hide from enemy gunfire, etc.
Many players enjoy this hobby, designing and
building their own battlegrounds. Also, amazing
scenery elements can be found made by specialized
companies. In any way, built an improvised
battleground using boxes, empty cans and other
elements of the appropriate size matching the
miniatures scale, is a good option too.
Scenery is placed over the terrain following the
directions of the chosen mission, as detailed in
chapter 3.
Other materials
Other necessary materials are:
• Ruler (in centimetres): it is used to check the
distance the miniatures can move or weapons
reach, amongst other measures. Players can make
any measurement on the battleground at any time,
so they can weight their options before playing
their units.
• 6 sided dice (named from now on D6): used
to resolve the events occurred during the normal
progression of a game.
• Pencil and paper: ready just in case it is
necessary to record any results.

Dice: Power rolls and Checks

In Last Saga games dice rolls are used to resolve Through this rulebook can be found detailed
situations with an important random component: explanations of each one of the dice roll, modifiers

should have their own pair of dice to hasten the
pace of the game.
All dice rolls follow the same process: dice are
thrown; the results are summed and modified
by applicable rules. Finally, the modified result is
compared to a set value or values, thus determining
the result of the situation.
There are two main dice rolls:
• Power roll: this type of dice roll is tied to the
usage of weapons by units, so it is used when they
perform weapon shots or strike enemies in Hand Remember

is performed successfully. The usage of these dice • Modified result is compared to a set
rolls is described extensively in each section which value/s
makes use of them.
There also exists other special dice roll: a dice
roll to determine the behaviour of equipment that
makes use of the circular area templates, or the
Damage check, which determines the health state
of the units. These dice roll are described later.

Game example
Sneak peek on Power roll and Damage check
1. The unit opens fire with its Battle rifle over the
close enemy. The dice roll sums 8, plus the pertinent
modifiers +6 (medium power) and -2 (pressure over
the shooting unit) results in a total of 12.
2. The result is compared with the Absorption
coefficient of the target, which is 10/12. Because the
result is equal or higher to the second value, it results
on a Damage check.
3. The player controlling the enemy roll the dice,
being the sum equal to 6. The Damage check table
indicates the enemy receives a lightly damaged marker
and an application of pressure.
Each one of these steps is further developed on the
sections below.

Units
Units that can be part of a Combat force in a Last
Saga game can be found in chapter 4, where their
recruitment files are described.
Recruitment file
The Recruitment file has all the information
which differentiates a unit from another in terms
of combat performance. In those are detailed how
good a unit is in some areas and what they can or
cannot do.
Contained information is:
• Base cost: this is how much the unit cost without
equipment options. This is crucial when recruiting
the Combat force.
• Name: unique identifying name of the unit.
• Type: a unit can be Light, Medium, Heavy or
Superheavy. Type determines various factors: the
punishment the unit can receive is reflected in the
Absorption Coefficient value tied to the type; also,
unit mobility and its Hand to hand capacity depend
of this parameter.
• Class: defines the recruitment of the unit as
Basic, Support, Elite or Command. If there are any
additional considerations to the unit recruitment
like the previous recruitment of other unit, it will be
specified between parentheses.

• Base: size of the base where the miniature is

• Unit special rules: these rules describe abilities,
special treats and special equipment of the unit.
• Equipment: weapons and accessories the unit
has. This equipment cost is included in the base
cost of the unit.
• Equipment options: different equipment that can
be chosen for the unit. These substitute equipped
weapons or accessories, or are straight added.
Acquisition of these options has a cost indicated
between parentheses; that cost is added to base
cost of the unit when picked.
These parameters will be used in upcoming
sections of the game system.

Last Saga games are divided in turns, with the
players alternating control over them. The player Organization phase

opponent.
A turn is also divided in three phases:
organization phase, combat phase and end phase.
When the active player resolves the end phase,
the turn ends. Then the opponent player becomes
the active player, starting a new turn with the
organization phase.

Organization phase
During this phase, the active player must do the
following steps:
• Overstrain management: this mechanic controls
how many actions units can do on a given turn,
setting a limit over that.
• Resolution of mandatory effects over their
units: an example can be damage over time caused
by incendiary weapons.
For now, it is enough to know that before units
can do actions it is necessary to go through this
process at the beginning of each turn. How these
steps are resolved will be explained in related
sections of this rulebook.
After the organization phase, the combat phase
begins.

Game example
Organization phase: what to do

During the organization phase,

the active player (blue units) must:

1. Flip the overstrain marker, so

it shows the spinning arrow facing
up.

2. Resolve the impact from the

incendiary weapon special rule, as
the Incendiary marker points out.

Unassigned counters are discarded, as are those
assigned tor aits.

Game example
Actions assignment and overstrain markers I

1. Thanks to the “Forward and attack”

action, the marked unit in red advances
behind the fence. It moves after receiving
the action counter. However, it cannot
perform the medium range weapon volley
because the closes unit in line of fire is
too far.

2. Next, the unit receives a second

action: “Hold position”. This action allows
a long range attack, so it shoots at the
enemy. Because it is the second action
the unit receives during the turn, an
overstrain marker showing the hourglass
is placed besides its base.

14

Overstrain markers
As mentioned before, a unit can perform up to
two actions during a given turn. However, carrying
out the second action will overstrain the unit, thus
limiting its actions during the next turn to only
one.
An overstrain marker is used to keep track of this
limitation. This marker has two different icons, each
one in one of its sides: an hourglass and a spinning
arrow.
When a unit performs a second action during a
turn (whether it comes from the assignment of an
action counter or not), an overstrain marker must
be placed close to the base of the miniature with its
hourglass facing up.
During the organization phase, the active player
first retires from their units all the overstrain
markers showing the spinning arrow. Then the
player flips all the remaining markers (showing
the hourglass), so those now show the spinning
arrow.
A miniature with a overstrain marker besides
its base can only carry out one action during the
turn.
As stated in the previous section, when the
player has spent all their action counters or does
not want to assign more to their units the combat
phase is over and the end phase begins.
Game example

Remember
Overstrain markers
Overstrain markers, showing the hourglass
or the spinning arrow. They are used to
keep track of the units going under heavy
strain, limiting their future options due to
exhaustion.
Final Phase
Before ending the turn, the active player must do
the following steps:
• Verify the state of their units with a severely
damaged marker: grievous wounds can put units
out of combat if not treated properly in time.
• Diminish pressure over their units: the player
reduces the pressure value by one in each one of
their units. These markers indicate when the unit
has been under fire, lessening its capabilities; how
this works is explained in the upcoming combat
section inside this chapter.
1. The unit receives an action counter to
perform the “Mend” action and remove its
lightly damaged marker. Taking advantage
of the small movement the action allows,
the unit approach the uncovered enemy.
2. Even if the enemy is an easy target,
the unit cannot perform more actions
this turn. This is because it already has
an action counter assigned, and an
overstrain marker is present. Because
of that it cannot take advantage of its
good positioning to open fire against the
enemy.
Actions
During the combat phase of the turn, the active
player assigns the available action counters to their
units one by one. When a unit receives one of these
counters, it can perform one of the actions at its
disposal.
All the dice roll and effects resulting of the tasks
performed by the miniature during the action
(unless said otherwise) must be resolved before
assigning another counter.
Basic actions
Below it can be found the list of basic actions
available to every unit. It must be considered that
some special rules can restrict the use of a specific
action, and that the presence of damage markers
also prevents the unit from using some of those.
Basic actions are:
• Forward and attack: this action allows the unit
to move and attack at medium ranges, so it is the
usual action when the enemy is near. “Forward
and attack” has a movement component and an
attack component, as its name specifies. The unit
can be moved up to 12 cm with the movement
component; this movement can be used to engage
hand to hand combat. The unit can perform a
medium-range volley at its nearest enemy in valid
range and line of fire, or attack in hand to hand
combat an enemy engaged. The unit can use any
of the equipped weapons for the shooting except
heavy ones, and any valid melee weapon for the
hand to hand attack. The unit can move and attack
or attack and move, but the attack cannot be done
mid movement.
Advice
Actions
Each action has its moment to be used,
so choosing the right one is crucial for
success.
Think on pros and cons of each option,
attending to the different aspect covered
by the actions: movement, offensive and/
or utility.
• Hold position: with this action units can fire at
long range with their weapons and choose their
target freely, at the expense of mobility. The unit
can perform a medium-range or long-range volley
at one enemy of it choosing within ranges and line
of fire, using any of its equipped weapons. When
not using a heavy type weapon the unit can also
move up to 5 cm; the unit can move and attack or
attack and move, but the attack cannot be done
mid movement. Also, the destination point of
the movement cannot be closer than 2 cm to any
enemy unit base.
• Fire at will: when performing this action, the unit
sacrifices everything on behalf the offensive. The
unit can shoot two times at medium-range with
any of its equipped weapons but heavy ones; or
the unit can attack in hand to hand combat two
times against enemy enemies engaged with a valid
melee weapon. If the action is used to shoot, the
target of the first shoot must be the closest enemy
and the second target must be the same or another
enemy up to 15 cm to the first target. Both targets
must be within range and line of fire. The player
must roll dice for each volley, with a -1 modifier to
the power roll or drifting check, depending on the
weapon used. If the action is used to attack in hand
to hand combat, targets can be any of the engaged
enemies. Again, the player must roll dice for each
attack, with a -1 modifier to each power roll. Finally,
weapons with “Reload” or “Cooldown” can never be
used for both attacks.
• Sprint: unit can move up to 30 cm over clear
terrain. The unit cannot cross difficult terrain
and cannot make climbs, but it can jump. The
destination point of the movement cannot be closer
than 2 cm to any enemy unit base. This action has
additional considerations: it cannot be performed
by units with an overstrain marker or by units that
have already carried out one in the turn. Also, any
unit performing this action will immediately receive
an overstrain marker with the hourglass facing up.
16

• Reposition: the unit avoids conflict, moving to
a safe spot to get its head together and replenish
its combat capacities. The unit moves up to 12
cm, not being the destination closer than 2 cm to
any enemy unit base. If the movement ends near
a scenery element that confers any kind of cover,
the unit can reduce pressure on itself by the same
value of the penalty that kind of cover applies to
power rolls. For example, if moving to light cover
the unit will reduce its pressure by two. Finally, this
movement will not trigger automatic actions which
depends of the unit moving, like an opportunity
shot.
• Mend: this action is only available for units with
a lightly damaged marker or a severely damaged
marker. When performing this action, the unit tries
to recover from damage: if the unit has a lightly
damaged marker, it is immediately removed. To
remove a severely damaged marker, the player
must have success on a resistance check of 7. If
the roll is a failure, the unit will swap the severely
damaged marker for a lightly damaged marker. The
unit can also move up to 5 cm as part of this action,
not being the destination point closer than 2 cm to
any enemy unit base. Additionally, when recovering
from a lightly damaged marker, the unit can
perform a medium range volley with an equipped
short weapon against the closer enemy in range
and line of fire instead of doing the movement.

Game example
Actions assignment during a game I

It is the turn of the blue units:

1. This unit receives the first action, performing “Forward and attack”. It moves closer to the enemy right behind
the fence, and opens fire at the closest enemy. Thanks to the cover, the enemy takes no damage.
2. Next, the same unit receives a second action counter to perform “Fire at will”. Because it is the second action,
it receives an overstrain marker with the hourglass facing up. Now it can make two medium-range volleys: the first
one over the closest enemy applying pressure on it, and the second one throwing a smoke grenade instead firing a
weapon thus covering its advance (round area template).
3. The officer receives the third action of the turn, performing the command action “Tactical advance”. In this
way, both a close basic unit and itself can make an advance.

 Game example
Actions assignment during a game II

Now it is the turn for the red units:

1. Because it is at a valid distance, the unit makes a “Charge” action against the closer unit. Going through the
smoke, it engages the enemy and makes a hand to hand attack. The result of the attack is an application of pressure
and a severely damaged marker.
2. This unit receives now an action counter, performing a “Forward and attack”. With it, advances to a new position
and shoots its Assault rifle. Because the closest enemy is engaged in hand to hand combat it can be ignored, so it opts
to target the next closer unit. Thanks to its covered position, the enemy takes no damage.
3. This unit waits for the smoke to disappear to have a clear shot. It can perform that with “Opportunity shot” after
receiving an action counter.
Before the turn ends, the red units reduce pressure over them by one application.

Special actions
Special actions are available to a unit when it has
the associated unit special rule that enables its use.
Special actions are:
• Fire and jump: these actions are available tor aits
that, whether by natural means or by equipment,
can perform quick jumps to cover great distances.
When using this action, the unit can make two
jumps up to 10 cm and perform a medium-range
volley at the closest enemy in range and line of fire
with a short or medium type equipped weapon.
Movements and shooting can be performed in
any order, but the movements must be done in
straight lines and covering the 10 cm distance. The
destination point cannot be closer than 2 cm to
any enemy player base. These movements ignore
terrain penalties, and can go through but not end
over impassable terrain.
• Fire and run: highly trained units can effectively
shoot their weapons when running. With this, the
unit can move up to 20 cm and perform a medium-
range volley with any of its short or medium type
equipped weapons, over the closest enemy at range
and line of fire. The volley receives a -1 penalty
to the power roll or drifting check. The unit can
perform the shot at any point of the movement,
resuming the movement after its resolution. The
destination point of the movement cannot be closer
than 2 cm to any enemy unit base. Finally, a unit
can perform this action only once each turn.
• Opportunity shot: the purpose of this action is
to wait for a clean shot, maximizing the efficiency
of the shot. The unit performing this action will
not move during the resto of the turn, and will
shoot over at medium or long range with its chosen
weapon at the first uncovered enemy within
valid range of the weapon and line of fire. This
shot is an automatic action, and is resolved when
the conditions are met and before resolving any
other action. This status begins when the action is
assigned and ends with the shot, the unit moves
or the next organization phase of its owning
player begins. A unit cannot receive another action
counter on the same turn it performs this action.
• Charge: specialized units in hand to hand combat
are able to move to the close quarters in which they
are lethal, taking advantage of the impulse to deal
increased damage. The unit can move up to 20 cm
to engage an enemy in hand to hand combat, and
attack the enemy applying a +1 to the power roll
with a valid melee weapon. This action can only be
assigned if there is an enemy in valid range of the
movement (including possible terrain penalties),
and can only be used to engage the enemy in hand
to hand combat.

 2 · Game System

Command actions Automatic actions

Units marked as “Officer” as well as units with
certain equipment, are able to activate command
actions.
In the case of the officers, command actions
are described in the special rule. Those can be
performed by assigning the unit with an action
counter as usual. When it comes from equipment, it
requires from the medium-range volley associated
to an action, as described in the “Accessories usage”
section.
If the action includes movement and/or attacking
of other allied units, it is considered that they are
performing an action even if they have not received
directly an action counter; this action counts towards
overstrain management in every sense.
Some special rules or special actions activate
automatic actions. These actions remain in the
flow the game; they must be resolved when the
described requirements are met, at that moment
and before any other movements or dice roll.
If an automatic action activates another
automatic action, the most recent one has priority
and must be resolved first, before continuing with
the previous one.

Game example
Actions assignment during a game III

Following with the next turn, during the organization phase the blue units manage overstrain: the blue unit with
such marker flips it so now shows the spinning arrow. Also the smoke screen created during the last turn of the
blue units disappears, because it only lasts during one turn.
1. The officer performs “Tactical advance” after receiving an action counter. The basic unit moves from one
cover to another, activating the “Opportunity shot” of the enemy: the result is an application of pressure and a
lighly damaged marker. The officer advances, placing itself on a good position.
2. The wounded unit performs a “Mend” action. It fails the required resistance check, so the unit swaps the
severely damaged marker with a lightly damaged marker. With the associated movement, the unit disengages the
enemy successfully, moving to a covered position without taking more damage. Because this unit has an overstrain
marker, it cannot receive more actions this turn.
3. The officer performs “Fire at will” with its Machine gun, firing twice against the closest enemy. Because it
is the second action of the turn, it receives an overstrain marker. The result of the shots is two applications of
pressure and a lightly damaged marker.
Before the turn ends, the blue units reduce applications of pressure on them by one.

Combat
This section covers the different options units
have when attacking as part of a received action.
Targeting options
A target can be an enemy unit, an ally unit or a
spot on the battleground; it depends of the action
and the equipment used. Targets must always be at
range of the equipment used.
When attacking in hand to hand combat, the
target must be one of the engaged enemies against
the attacking unit.
Some actions specify that the target must be the
nearest enemy in range and line of fire. When this is
the case, if it happens that the nearest enemy is in
heavy cover or engaged in hand to hand combat, it
can be ignored and target the next uncovered enemy
instead. Additionally, enemy units with profiles 3 or
4 can always be chosen as targets, ignoring closer
enemies.
When an allied target is required it can be any of
the allies at range of the equipment and if necessary
in line of fire, no matter if they are under cover.
Equipment with the special rules “Big round area”,
“Small round area” and “Teardrop area” bypass this
Game example
“Nearest target” rule application
rule. In the case of round areas, the target is a spot
on the battleground no matter the action in which
they are used. The use of those areas is described on
upcoming sections.
Line of fire
The line of fire is a straight line between two
points, free from obstacles. These two points are
usually the unit performing the action and the
designated target, whether it is an enemy, an ally or
a spot on the battleground.
When talking about the unit performing the
action, the starting point of the line of fire is
situated at the horizontal eye level of the miniature
standing in a neutral position, all around its volume
occupied.
Line of fire is blocked when it goes through solid
elements like rocks, dense vegetation or other units.
This is a critical concept when talking about what a
unit can see, in terms of firing weapons or using its
abilities.
As part of a received action, the
unit A can perform a medium range
shot. The targets at valid medium
range of the weapon are: the unit B,
behind the building; the unit C, behind
the solid wall; the unit D, close and
uncovered; and finally the unit E, far
and uncovered.
Line of fire and closest enemy rules
removes some possibilities: C and D
can be chosen as targets, but B and E
cannot.
The reason is the following: the unit
C is the closest target, but because it
is under heavy cover it can be ignored,
targeting the uncovered unit D instead.
On the other side, B is not in line of fire
and even if E is in line of fire, there are
closer units that cannot be ignored.
22
 2 · Game System

Unit’s profile
The volume occupied by a unit is determined
by its profile; it represents the visibility of a unit
standing in a neutral position. This is a necessary
parameter, because some miniatures represent
the unit in combat positions that may confuse
players when determining its visibility; for example
miniatures crouching or kneeling.
Units have assigned one of the five different
profiles. To use the profile, it must be trimmed
and placed where the miniature is when there are
any doubts about terrain offering cover tor aits or
blocking the line of fire.
Finally, units making use of A3 and A4 profiles
can always be chosen as targets even if the nearest
target rule must be applied, ignoring closer
enemies.
Cover
Units behind scenery elements like barrels, rocks
or boxes find additional protection from enemy fire.
To benefit from a good cover, units must be
situated closer to the scenery element: this distance
must be less than 2 cm. When this is the case, there
are two types of cover:
When the unit is not near a scenery element, there
can still be some obstacles in the way of the line of
fire that offer some protection. In those cases the unit
is not under cover, but the shot is partially blocked.
Units shooting over uncovered targets with scenery
elements in the path of the line of fire receive a -1
modifier to their power roll.
Only one of these modifiers can be applied; if more
than one of these cases happen, only the greater one
is taken.
Finally shooting over a target placed more than
10 cm above the unit while the horizontal distance
is less than 40 cm, is considered to be done against
a covered target. This happens because the border
of the element where the target is situated confers
protection to the unit, even if it seems to be
uncovered. The type of this cover will depend of the
nature of the terrain.

Firing weapons
Many actions allow units to fire their equipment,
by describing both the number of shots and
their reach: medium or long range. Distances for
both ranges vary depending of the weapon used;
this information can be found on the weapon
description.
Power is the attribute that defines the effectivity
of the weapon when causing damage. When
equipment has power value a power roll must take
place to resolve the effects of the shot. Difficulty is
the absorption coefficient (AC) of the target, and the
modifiers to apply will be the power at the range the
weapon is used as well as the pertinent ones (cover,
pressure, etc.).
Remember
Power roll
Power roll: 2d6 + Weapon power (given
range) + applicable modifiers
After the roll and addition of the modifiers:
• If the result is less than the minimum AC of the
target, the shot has missed or has not affected the
target in any way.
• If the result is equal or higher to the minimum AC
of the target, it receives an application of pressure.
• If the result is equal or higher to the maximum
AC of the target, it has been damaged. Upcoming
section “Damage” covers the procedure when this
happens, to determine the amount of damage
received by the unit.
Area of effect
Some weapons can extend their effects over an
area, affecting more than one target. The different
areas are: round (diameters of 8 and 12 cm) and
teardrop. When a weapon makes use of one of
these areas, it is mentioned via an appropriate
special rule for the equipment.
• Round areas: used mainly for grenades, missiles,
rockets and other explosive weaponry, also by
gas and/or poison clouds ones. The centre of the
template is placed at the impact point, and the final
placement is set after the application of the Drift
rule explained in section below.
• Teardrop area: used by flamethrower-type
equipment. The thinner part of the template is
placed making contact with the firing miniature
base, the broad part pointing in the direction of the
shot.
Units are affected by the area if:
• Their base is totally covered by the template.
• At least half of the base is covered and the player
fails on an initiative check of difficulty 9. If the
check is a success, the unit is unaffected.
The effect or effects to resolve will vary
depending of the equipment used. If the equipment
has power for the range it is used, a power roll will
take place applying the power value, cover, and
other relevant modifiers except the pressure on the
firing unit.
A weapon with the special rule “persistent area”
will leave the template on the battleground. This
template will remain a number of periods indicated
between parentheses in the special rule. Each
period comprehends a complete opponent player
turn, until the next organization phase of the player

Game example
Weapon with “Drift”

The unit throws a Fragmentation grenade over

the group of units as shown in the image. The player
controlling the unit decides to place the template
between the enemy units, to cover both of them.
Because it is a clear line of fire to the chosen spot, the
template is placed with the 3/11 arrow pointing towards
the unit throwing the grenade.
A drifting check of difficulty 10 is done. The result is:
3+2 (2d6) +3 (Drifting value in medium range) = 8.
Because the result is lower than the difficulty of 10,
the template will move on a random direction.

24
 2 · Game System

1. The direction the template will move is

randomized. A dice roll is made: the result is
4+6 (2d6) = 10. The template will move on the
direction pointed by numbers 2 and 10. The
distance is also randomized by throwing dice:
the result is 3+4 (2d6) = 7, so the centre of
the template will move 7 cm.

2. On the final position of the template,

one of the units is partially covered by it and
the other is not at all. The player controlling
the partially covered unit must succeed on
an initiative check of difficulty 9 to avoid the
template effects, because more than a half of
the base is covered.

that controls the unit which caused this effect.

It is recommended to use counters to track this
duration.
If a unit enters a persistent area of effect, it will
receive the effects of the weapon immediately. This
will be treated as an automatic action.
If a unit remains inside a persistent area, it will
receive its effects again at the beginning of the
organization phase of the player that controls the
unit which caused the persistent area.
Drifting
When a unit fires equipment with the special rule
“Big round area” or “Small round area” the process
is slightly different. As described in the previous
section, these weapons make use of the round
templates and the main step is to determine where
they are placed.
First, the player controlling the unit firing
chooses a point of the battleground, at valid range
of the equipment based in the action allowing the
shot. Then, the appropriate template is placed on
its centre.
Round areas have eight numbered arrows
pointing outwards (7, 8, 4/12, 9, 3/11, 5, 2/10 and
6). The arrow numbered as 3/11 is bigger and it
indicates the direction where the shot comes, so it
must be placed accordingly.
Then, the player rolls a drifting check of difficulty
10. Special rules “Big round area” and “Small round
area” have two associated values. First one is the
bonus to be added to this check when firing at
medium range, the second being the bonus at long
range.

25
 If this check is a success, the template remains in
place. If it fails, the template will move on a random
direction. To determine this, the player rolls dice
and adds the result. The template with the resulting
number indicates the direction. The distance in
centimetres the centre of the template will move is
the result of throwing again the dice and adding the
result.
Use of accessories
Units can equip with tools categorized as
accessories to help them in battle, like medical kits
or grenades. The use of an accessory requires from
the medium or long range volley of an action, using
the accessory instead of firing a weapon. When
the accessory has long range in its description, it
must be used as part of an action that allows a long
range volley.
This same rule applies to mission bearable
objects, as well as opening doors, operating
levers, and any other elements in the battleground
susceptible to be used by units. A unit need to be
closer than 2 cm to be able to operate one of these
elements, unless said otherwise.
Accessories always are consumed on use: after
their effects take place, whether used as part of
an action or immediately for those accessories
with instant use rule, the equipment cannot be
used again in the current battle. However, multiple
copies or charges of an accessory is possible,
marked between parentheses after its name (for
example Fragmentation grenade (2), allowing the
unit to throw two of those during the battle).
Hand to hand combat
A hand to hand attack happens after a unit uses
an appropriate action that allows it to attack an
engaged enemy that way, or as punishment against
an enemy trying to disengage.
To resolve the effects of a hand to hand
attack, the process to be followed is similar to
firing weapons: a power roll takes place adding
the medium power of the weapon used and any
applicable modifiers, and the result is compared to
the absorption coefficient of the target as seen in
the “Firing weapons” section.
Only weapons with the special rule “Melee” can
be used in hand to hand attacks. If the unit does
not have a weapon with that rule, the power to be
added to the power roll will be based on its type as
seen in “Unit’s types” section. When a valid weapon
is equipped, the power used will be the greater
value: medium power of the equipment or the
power given by its type. In any case, special rules
from the weapon will always be applied.

more units receives a +1 to the power roll for each
additional ally engaged against the enemy.
Disengaging hand to hand combat
A unit is trying to disengage when it is moving
out of a hand to hand combat situation.
To do this, the unit needs to be assigned with
an action that includes movement. Then, at the
very moment the movement is going to take place,
the player controlling the unit must success in an
initiative check of difficulty 8. Doing so will allow
the unit to move normally, leaving base contact
with the enemy; but if the check is a failure, the unit
will receive a hand to hand attack from the enemy
that is engaged. If there is more than one enemy
engaged, the opponent player will decide which unit
makes this attack (only one of them).
As an exception, units with a severely damaged
marker will not be able to do this attack, even if the
unit disengaging fails to success in the explained
initiative check.
This attack is considered an automatic action
and it must be resolved immediately. If after the

not possible, the action is lost.

Damage on units
This section covers the results of a power roll
that surpasses the absorption coefficient of the
unit, whether it is caused by weapon fire, damaging
areas or hand to hand combat.
Pressure markers
A unit is under pressure as a consequence of
received attacks, weapon effects or because some
special rules. The pressure marker is placed closer
to the unit base, and it is used to highlight the
pressure affecting it: the unit will subtract this value
from any power roll, drifting roll or initiative check
that is made. As an exception, power rolls derived
from area of effect weaponry are not affected
by pressure marker (the drifting roll was already
modified).
When a unit receives an application of pressure,
it means an additional +1 to the pressure already
gotten. That is, if the unit does not have any
pressure marker, it will receive one with a “1” on
it upon application. If it does have a “1”, it will be
substituted by a “2” one. Finally, already having a
“2” upon application means a final “3”.
Remember
Pressure markers
Pressure over units reduces their
efficiency. This is represented by the
different pressure values.
Maximum pressure value is 3. If the unit already
has a pressure marker indicating “3”, additional
applications have no effect and are discarded.
During the end phase of the player turn, all the
units under their control reduce pressure on them
by one: a unit having “3” will substitute it for a “2”
marker, and so on.
Damage control
When a power roll is equal or higher than the
maximum absorption coefficient (AC) of the unit,
it has been damaged. The player controlling the
target unit must roll dice and check the Damage
control table below.
Roll Result
2-5 Stunned: the unit receives an
application of pressure.
6-9 Light damage: a lightly damaged marker
is placed besides the unit base and it
receives an application of pressure. If
the unit already has a lightly damaged
marker, it is replaced by a severely
damaged marker. If the unit already
has a severely damaged marker, it is
removed from the battleground.
10 - 11 Severe damage: a severely damaged
marker is placed besides the unit
base and it receives an application
of pressure. If the unit already has a
lightly or severely damaged marker, it is
removed from the battleground.
12 Out of combat: the unit has received
too much damage and it is removed
from the battleground.
Damage markers
When a unit receives a damage marker the
following rules must be applied:
• Lightly damaged marker: a unit with a lightly
damaged marker has taken some damage and
its capacities are affected. The unit can only
perform the following actions upon receiving an

reposition and mend. Any actions not received by
the straight assignation of an action counter can be
performed normally.
• Severely damaged marker: a unit with a severely
damaged marker has received battle wounds. It
can only perform mend actions when assigned
with an action counter. During the end phase of
the turn, the active player must do a resistance
check of difficulty 6 for each one of their units with
severely damaged markers. If the check is a failure,
unit state worsens and it must be removed from
the battleground. If the check is a success, the
unit remains on the battleground with its severely
damaged marker.

Game example
“Charge” action and hand to hand combat

1. The unit receives an action counter and

performs a “Charge” action, moving towards the
enemy and engaging in hand to hand combat. The
distance is valid, so the movement is performed
successfully.
2. After the engagement, the attack is done. The
power roll is: 4+4 (2d6) + 5 (power) + 1 (“Charge”
modifier) + 1 (“Shred” weapon special rule) = 15.
The result is higher than the maximum CA of the
enemy unit, so the player controlling it must make a
damage check to know how much damage results on
its unit.

List of special rules
Shooting
• Long weapons: the unit receives a +1 to its power
roll when using long type weapons. If the weapon
has drift, the modifier is applied to the drifting
check instead.
• Medium weapons: the unit receives a +1 to its
power roll when using medium type weapons. If
the weapon has drift, the modifier is applied to the
drifting check instead.
• Heavy weapons: the unit receives a +1 to its
power roll when using heavy type weapons. If the
weapon has drift, the modifier is applied to the
drifting check instead.
• Bomber: the unit receives a +1 to drifting rolls
when using equipment with this special rule.
• Target selection: the unit ignores the nearest
enemy rule when performing the forward and
attack action.
• Response fire: the unit makes a medium range
weapon volley, with an equipped medium or short
weapon, against the first enemy that shoots at it
during the turn. The range must be valid as well
as the line of fire. This is considered to be an
automatic action, and takes place immediately after
resolving the enemy shot, no matter its result.
• Steady step: the unit receives a +1 modifier to the
power roll when firing a weapon with the forward
and attack action.
• Solid position: the unit receives a +1 modifier to
the power roll when firing a weapon at medium
range with the hold position action.
• Precision: the unit reduces by one the cover
penalty to power rolls when firing at units under
cover.
• Quick shooter: this unit ignores the special rule
“reload” on its equipment.

Hand to hand
• Relentless assault: initiative checks by enemies
engaged with the unit receive a -1 modifier.
• Close combat: the unit receives a +1 to the power
roll when attacking in hand to hand combat.
• Counterattack: the unit makes a hand to hand
attack against the first enemy that attacks it that
way during the turn. This is considered to be an
automatic action, and takes place immediately after
resolving the enemy hand to hand attack, no matter
its result.
• Evasion: the unit automatically succeeds on
initiative checks when disengaging from hand to
hand combat.
Movement
• Acrobat: the unit automatically succeeds on
initiative checks when making jumps.
• Climber: the unit automatically succeeds on
initiative checks when climbing.
• Evasive manoeuvres: the unit can move up to
5 cm after being the target of a shot. This effect is
an automatic action activated by the received shot
and can only happen once in a turn. This movement
cannot be used to disengage from hand to hand
combat and cannot end closer than 2 cm from an
enemy base.
• Additional movement: the unit can move an
additional 5 cm when performing forward and
attack or sprint actions.
• Surefooted: the unit ignores any penalties when
moving on difficult terrain, also being able to sprint
through them applying the penalty (move 1 cm at
expense of 2 cm from the movement).
• Fast unit: the unit can move an additional 10
cm when performing forward and attack or sprint
actions.
• Flight: the unit hovers over the ground, thus being
able to move without touching it. Because of that,
it automatically succeeds on any initiative checks to
climb or jump, no matter the dice roll. Any terrain
whose practicability is the function of the terrain
stability (like swamps or rocky areas) are treated
as clear terrain, and the unit is able to end of the
movement over them if the base remains stable.

Command actions
Some command units have access to command
actions only available to them.
• Tactical advance: the unit and up to two basic
units not farther than 20 cm from it can move up
to 12 cm, not ending the movement closer than
2 cm from an enemy unit base. The order of the
movement can be any, but a unit must end it
before the next one starts moving. Movements are
treated as an automatic action and counts toward
overstrain management.
• Covering fire: the unit moves up to 20 cm not
ending the movement closer than 2 cm from an
enemy unit base, and a basic unit not farther than
20 cm from the unit can perform a long range shot
with an equipped weapon. This assignment can be
inverted, being the unit the one which fires and the
basic unit the one which moves. In any case, the
movement or the shot are considered automatic
actions and count toward overstrain management.
• Take positions: the unit and a basic unit up to
20 cm farther from it can perform the same tasks
as if they have received “forward and attack”.
Both movement and shooting for each unit are
considered a whole automatic action for each one,
and count toward overstrain management.

 3 · Last Saga games
Games in Last Saga are centred on the consecution of a mission. The mission will determine
mission objectives and victory conditions, how to deploy units on the battlefield and additional
rules that may apply.
The current chapter will describe the steps to play Last Saga games.

EMPIRE · DEUROX LINEAGE · Starter pack 01

37
 Last Saga games
Mission selection
The first step to play a Last Saga games is to
choose a mission. This mission must be chosen
by common agreement by the players from the
mission file.
The mission file contains all the necessary
information to play the game. On occasions, the
mission will contravene some general rules for Last
Saga: in those cases, specific mission rules prevail
over general ones.
Recruiting a combat force
After choosing a mission, each player must
organize its combat force following the rules
below.
Battle points
The players must agree the size of the combat
forces to recruit, measured in battle points. Said
points are used to recruit units and purchase
equipment options. When a unit is recruited, it base
cost plus any equipment options purchased are
added to the total cost of the combat force. This
total cost cannot exceed the battle points decided
at the beginning.
Introductory and fast games are usually set to
100 battle points; that allows the players to recruit
enough units to learn the game system and explore
its possibilities. Last Saga starter packs contain
units for this value, approximately.
For advanced players, it is recommended to play • Include units of only a section.
games with 200 or 250 battle points. In any case,
the number of battle points must be a multiple of
50. Additionally, some missions may recommend or
fixate a number of battle points to be played.
Choosing a faction and a section
In Last Saga, factions fight on a conflict in which
their own interest clash against the others. Said
factions are: The Council, Empire, Tanaor, Saanar
and Uruhvel. Inside faction there are different
sections grouping different combat operatives; for
example, two Saanar sections are Raiders and the
Assassin’s Guild.
Factions, sections and units composing them are
developed in chapter 4: combat forces.
General recruitment rules
In Last Saga are 4 classes of units: basic, support,
elite and command.
• Basic: these troops compose the backbone of the
combat forces.
• Support: advanced and specialized units.
• Elite: highly trained units, capable of overcome
task with high performance in battle.
• Command: units with important tactical
resources; they can have key abilities or equipment,
or allow the recruitment of specific units.
Additionally, there exist a special class of unit
that accompany some units: the servants. These
work together the unit they follow, but they do not
count as units for practical purposes or be recruited
independently.
Having all of this in consideration, general rules
to follow when recruiting a combat force are:
• Include units of only a faction.
• Not include two or more command units with the
same name.
• Include one, and only one unit marked as officer.
• Include a minimum of 3 basic units.
• Include a maximum of one elite unit for each 100
battle points.
Some units have specific recruitment rules that
restrict their recruitment or open the possibility of
recruitment units that normally cannot be included.
These specific rules have priority over general rules
of recruitment.

explained in chapter 2. The mission file will include
any additional information about which player has
the first turn or the maximum number of turns,
also the victory conditions for a player to obtain
victory.
Additionally, a faction or section can have
specific recruitment rules described in the
appropriate section. Again in case of conflict, these
rules prevail over general ones.
Units have base equipment when recruited. Any
optional equipment chosen during the recruitment
will substitute equipment or it will be added tor ait
equipment as indicated.

Recruitment example
Phantom with Heavy sniper rifle recruitment

To include a Phantom on the combat force, first it is necessary to check if the

conditions to do it are met:
Because it is an Elite unit, it is needed to make sure that only one elite unit for each
100 battle points is recruited. Also, the Phantom requires the previous recruitment
of an Operations Agent to be recruited.

To add the Phantom to the combat force the 17 points of its base cost are added
plus 4 more because of the equipment option chosen (Heavy sniper rifle), to the
total points of the units already recruited.
If the new total is not higher than the battle points decided, the recruitment of the
Phantom is a success.

Mission files
The following section details missions for Last
Saga games. More missions will be included in the
future: via web support, promotion events or social
networks. Also, it is encouraged for the players to
create and share their own missions for Last Saga
thus creating a unique and rich environment.

Preparing the battleground
• The deployment area for each player is 10cm
on opposite edges of the table (if the table is
rectangular, use the short edges). The battle area
will comprise the rest of the playing surface.
• Each player alternately places an item of terrain
(or a set of small elements) on the playing surface.
Terrain items cannot be placed within 15cm from
the centre of the playing surface. This process
continues until there are placed enough scenery
elements for a good game experience (it is
recommended a good amount of them).

• The players place alternately, one by one, their
units in their respective areas of deployment. After
that, infiltrated units are deployed following the
rules for them. (See “Infiltration” special rule).
• Once all the units have been deployed, an
objective marker (medium size) is placed in the
centre of the battleground. After that, following
the same deployment order, each player places
an objective marker on the battleground. Those
cannot be put in inaccessible places for units, closer
than 20 cm from another objective marker or closer
than 10 cm to a deployment area.

As the enemy is also moving forward to recover
it, it should be of maximum importance, so expect
heavy resistance. The security system will not be

Mission briefing
Welcome Officer.

After some investigations there, all the members elements for a good game experience (it is
of the group seemed to disappear, including the
crew of the escort team. After a long silence, an
emergency signal was emitted.
One of the archaeologists survived, from now

bit of reason, it sent an open emergency signal for
rescue. Contents of the message lead to think that
some unknown entities caused the incident. Now
the area is clear, but the target seems to have lost

This signal has been intercepted, so you must

extraction point marked in the map.

to have intercepted the emergency signal and
they are on their way as well. You will find

• The players place alternately, one by one, their

that, infiltrated units are deployed following the
rules for them. (See “Infiltration” special rule).
• Once all terrain items have been placed, a
miniature representing the survivor is placed in the
centre of the battleground, at the same distance
Mission objective
• The player taking the target to their corresponding
extraction point wins the mission. For this to
happen, the base of the target miniature must
make contact with the deployment area of the
player controlling the unit that guides the target.
The player whose units put out of combat the target
loses the game immediately.
• Any unit but servants can guide the target. To do
that, the unit base must be closer than 2 cm from
the target base. Taking control requires a medium
range volley and can be performed by any action
that allows it (see “use of accessories”), guiding
the target instead of making the shot. Command
actions cannot serve this purpose. Any control
attempt over the target while it is under the control
of other unit results in the target following the new
unit.
44

• Once controlled, the target moves up to 10 cm
each turn, following the unit controlling it; however
it will never enter a damaging area, stopping
immediately if there is not an alternative way
around it. If the unit controlling the target moves
in such a way the target cannot stay closer than 2
cm to it, the target stops immediately and becomes
uncontrolled. Additionally, if the unit controlling the
survivor receives a severely damaged marker the
target becomes uncontrolled immediately.
• The target cannot be objective of any shoots or be
engaged in hand to hand combat. For rules purpose
the survivor is considered a light type unit. If the
target receives a lightly damage marker, it continues
normally; but if it receives a severely damaged
marker, it will stop immediately and become
uncontrolled.
• From the third turn onwards, at the beginning of
each player organization phase, if the target has
a severely damaged marker it will automatically
perform a “mend” action. If it does not have one of
these markers and is not under control of any unit,
the active player rolls dice and checks the following
table to determine its behaviour:

before the movement ends, it stops.

Armed robbery
Mission briefing
Welcome officer.
After a swift and clever infiltration in an enemy
base, an allied Combat Force has been surrounded
by the enemy defensive forces on its way out. The
stolen materials are of maximum importance, so it
is absolute priority to retrieve them.
Our Assault Team is now trapped in a distant
area. They manage to take cover for a while on the
terrain, but they are now being assaulted without
way to scape. We are unable to give support
via a tactical bombardment because the risk of
damaging our forces is too high, and this type of
attack requires precision and communication we
are unable to have.
This is why we need your command, officer. You
must enter the zone leading a small Reinforcement
Group, and secure an escape for our Assault
Team and the important materials recovered. Two
possible localizations are safe for landing, so based
on the information we have gathered, you must
decide where to deploy your forces.
You will find additional information of the zone in Mission objective
the attached documents.
End of the briefing.
Preparing the battleground
• The deployment area for the assault team of
the defender player is a 15cm circle in the centre
of the battleground. The reinforcement team of
the defender player will deploy up to 10cm away
from opposite sides of the battleground. If there
are short sides on the battleground, these will be
chosen.
• Deployment area for the attacker player will be up
to 10cm from the other sides of the battleground. If
there are long sides, these will be chosen.
• The extraction point is a quarter 5 cm circle on
each of the corners of the battleground.
• In the centre of the Battlefield must be present
enough terrain and scenery elements to provide
cover and shelter to the Defender Team. A bunker,
a building, a combination of boxes and barrels or
rocks and trees, should be enough. This set up must
be agreed by both players.
• Each player alternately places an item of terrain
(or a set of small elements) on the rest of the
playing surface. This process continues until there
are placed enough scenery elements for a good
game experience (it is recommended a good
amount of them).
• Players must agree the role each one takes in this
mission: as attacker or as defender. When in doubt,
it can be settled with a dice roll: each player rolls
2d6, adds the result and the player with the highest
result (ties are repeated) decides between being the
defender or attacker player.
• The defender player must divide the combat force
in two teams: assault team, with at least three
units and five maximum; and the extraction team,
with the rest of the units and the officer. After this,
the defender player writes down in secret which
three units in the assault team carry the materials
retrieved. A unit with the special rule “Infiltration”,
“Airborne unit” or “Advanced deployment” can be
chosen for this, but at the cost of not being able
to be deployed in agreement with such special
rules. This information must not be known by the
Attacker player, so a clear track of the carrying units
must be made to avoid confusion.
• The players, place alternately, one by one, their
units in their respective areas of deployment. After
that, Infiltration units are deployed, following the
rules for them. First player to start the deployment
must be the attacker player, which is also the first
active player.
• The objective of the defender player is to reach
with as many possible materials carrying units
a valid extraction point. At the very moment a
carrying unit ends an action inside one of these
zones its miniature is removed from the Battlefield.
Attacker player must prevent carrying units from
escape the battleground. Game ends when no more
carrying units are on the battleground.
• This mission can be played once or twice,
alternating the roles of defender player and
attacker player. When playing twice, both games
must use the same battleground obtained in the
previous steps.
• In the case of playing the mission once, winner
will be the defensive player if at least one unit
reaches an extraction point. In the case of two
games, winner will be the player who brings more
carrying units to an extraction point when playing
as defensive player.

Units
Each one of the units is represented in Last Saga
with a unique miniature with the appropriate detail
level, to represent its look and equipment.
Additionally, units belong to a specific faction,
and inside the faction to a section; a combat
force can only be composed by units of a unique
section.
Factions
Five factions fight in the universe for resource
control.
During a period of tense calm, the action is
condensed in small tactical forces fighting for
strategic locations, retrieving information, maiming
the enemy capacities, sabotaging actions, etc.
Because of that, units composing the combat
forces are highly trained and prepared; some of
them are capable of solve a wide array of situations,
while others are specialized in key tasks.
Recruitment lists
At the beginning of each section list it is attached
a graphic with the available units. Units listed are
sorted by type, from command units to elite.
As seen in “General rules of recruitment”, an
officer must be included in the combat force. Units
with this designation are highlighted on said lists
for a better identification.
Also basic, support and elite units that require
the previous recruitment of a command unit to be
recruited, appear listed below said unit in the same
column.
Servants
Servants that can go with units appear listed
in this section; this can be because the servant
is always with the unit thus listed in its basic
equipment, or because it can be chosen as an
option.
If the servant itself has an equipment option, it is
acquired in the same way: the cost of the option is
added and the new equipment substitutes the base
one.
Equipment
Lastly, the list of equipment for the faction:
ranges, power and special rules of each one.

The Council
UNI T Y IS OUR STRENGTH

After the tragic event that led to

the destruction of the Earth, human
colonies were scattered throughout the
galaxy. In this situation of uncertainty,
mankind was an easy prey, so a new
order was needed to provide protection
from the brutal external threats.

Versatile and multifaceted, Humanity

combat Forces are equipped with the most
advanced technology that human ingenuity
is capable of producing, especially
when it comes to the art of war.

Structured
militarily, human
society understands that in order
to survive, it is necessary to be willing and
prepared to fight. That is why every child
is militarily trained and the possibility of
being called to arms is continuous.

United now in a common effort to

survive, and known as The Council, this
decentralized republic governs to avoid
falling into chaos and annihilation.

SERVE OR DIE

The native ancestral family of Coelx

dominated this planet for millennia. Driven
to madness by their thirst for power and
domination, they fixed their gaze on other
planets and worlds of the galaxy,
giving rise to a campaign of
conquest and destruction
unparalleled. Their way of acting
is simple: slavery or destruction.
Centuries of conquest and thralldom
have resulted in a multiracial composition
of their Combat Forces. Led by members
of the family, slaves are selected according
to their characteristics, forced to work
on tasks where they are most efficient to
feed the war machine of the Empire.

This colossus continues its expansion

through the galaxy, devouring planet
after planet. The Earth was destroyed by
the denial of humanity to be enslaved.
However, the thirst for power begins tor
adermine the bosom of the family, with
voices discordant about the direction
and methods of the governance. A recent
change has taken place: the oldest lineage,
the Coelx, have been replaced on the
throne by a younger lineage and with
new ideas: the Deurox lineage.

 “... until that moment, we did not know more about the Titans than we had deduced based on
the remains found. But after so many adventures there, they were finally before me: the Tanaor
files. The record of centuries and centuries of their history and what they call The Legacy, kept in
that peculiar format used by the Guardians. But our distraction failed sooner than expected, and
we had to hurry away; I barely had time to take some files, which of course I would return after
studying them in depth ...”

Tanaor
R A ISING THE SHIELDS OF THE LEGAC Y

Their home planet is in the center of the

galaxy, in the Shield Arm. The First Watcher
rules from there, commanding over a town
that honors the honor and the family, the
called The Legacy. Bearers of the most
refined technology of the galaxy,
they see the rest of races as mere
barbarians and lower class, treating
them with cool courtesy at best.

Tanaor are the only ones who have

direct evidence of the existence of the
Titans, the ancestral race that created the
dominant races that populate the galaxy,
and they have took on responsability
preserving and venerating such knowledge.
Fearful enemies, Tanaor reflect their
strict discipline on the battlefield with the
coldness and lethality of their actions,
leaving no glimpse of any sentiment.

Inside, all Tanaor struggles for

obligation and necessity, driven by
its iron code: to do what is necessary
for the good of its people.

 “... glasses of that strange brew. The composition was totally unknown, but I began to notice
the effects: it aroused a primordial euphoria and it gave visions of triumph; so it was not
surprising that the Saanar blithely were into battle. Even I began to fantasize about such visions
(a couple of glasses more and I would have thrown myself on those of the tavern to loot their
belongings). The memory of the Grot slaves, who protected the bar against this kind of habitual
mishaps, made me change my mind and made me drop the glass before ...”

BEST DEAL IF TAKING ALL

This race, ruled by powerful merchant

princes, is the most expanded of the
galaxy. From its beginnings, the
different Princes fight each other
in an endless battle of intrigue,
subterfuge and open wars; but
when necessary, they are able to
cooperate for a greater good leaving
aside all personal resentment. Around
these leaders, a myriad of merchants,
corsairs, mercenaries, and other similar
guilds who make up their society
thrive. The activity of buying and selling
exists, but that of stealing, looting or
blackmail is much more common.

Selfish and with little general

organization, Saanar groups
sometimes lack synergy or they show
no support among the members,
being the majority of their operators,
self-sufficient. This, in fact, is usually
his ace up the sleeve, since the
units do not depend on anything
or on anyone to be efficient in
combat. Raised in a society in
which they must fight for every
ounce of food, the Saanar rely
on experience and instinct in
equal parts to achieve victory.

Saanar recruitment has an additional

consideration to the already known recruitment
rules.
Additionally to the Saanar – Raiders list, there
can be recruited units from one, and only one of
the following lists: Saanar – Tri-Sun brotherhood
and Saanar – Assassin’s guild.
Include units from one of the additional lists
exclude the units from the other one for the same
combat force.
Remember
Saanar recruitment example
• If you decide to add a Blood Assassin
in your combat force, it would mean you
have decided to add units from Saanar –
Assassin’s guild.
• On consequence, it will not be possible
to add units from Saanar – Tri-sun
brotherhood on the combat force.

 “... I still wonder how in the midst of the prevailing chaos, I ended up in what looked like a
cargo ship Uruhvel! This allowed me to observe first-hand the operation of its technology: what
in any other ship would have been a normal hold, here the sensation was like being inside the
stomach of a whale.

The walls themselves, built in a material that was strangely soft and flexible, radiated heat of
their own and it felt a kind of pulsation; a beat that came from the depths of the ship. No typical
technology was recognizable at that point, not even a door.

Luckily I did not need one, the ship seemed to notice my presence and I was suddenly expelled
outside! But not without first doing a very important observation, something that catapulted my
knowledge of this fascinating culture... “

Uruhvel
WE ARE THE LIFE THAT PREVA ILS

From an unknown home planet, the

alien race known as “Uruhvel” roams the
galaxy in its biotech hives. Their goals
and motivations are a mystery, since all
contact with them is reduced to direct
confrontation, existing no records of
communications by any of the parties.

One aspect is clear: they

excel in biotechnology.
While their bodies have
an essentially humanoid
appearance, they make
grow upon them different
types of symbiotic beings
that give them enhanced
capabilities. The symbionts
take the form of armored
plates, communication systems,
life support or weaponry, among
others. In addition, the Uruhvel
are able to create new life forms,
originating specialized organisms
with abilities as effective as the most
advanced technologies of other races.
Quick and precise, they sometimes
appear on the sites of new discoveries
and important resources; they attack
with ferocity and without hesitation,
collecting and raising all useful material
and disappearing without a trace.
