Polyversal Base Set

Polyversal is an Origins-Award Nominated* miniatures-agnostic tabletop game for two or more players designed by Ken Whitehurst and developed by Collins Epic Wargames. Polyversal is a game that puts you in command of an army set in a plausible-future Earth.

• Intended for use with 6mm-15mm scale miniatures from any manufacturer.
• Uses color-coded polyhedral dice and Combatant Tiles to reflect the combat qualities of units and quickly resolve combat.
• A single roll of three color-coded polyhedral dice is used to resolve each attack without the need for re-rolls to determine hits, saves, or damage effects. This makes combat resolution fast and intuitive.
• Hexagonal Combatant Tiles that you may create and customize to represent miniatures from any line physically arrange together to provide a visual command structure for each "battlegroup" you form around a central command unit. With all of the vital information you need on each Combatant Tile, your eyes remain focused on the battlespace, not the rulebook.
• A sleek initiative-based orders and activation system keeps players continually involved. You don't stare and wait as your opponent has fun- Initiative "face-offs" between Battlegroup Commanders determine the next minis that activate. 

Polyversal Base Set includes everything you need to play except miniatures (you may add your own and stat out in Arsenal- perfect for those with existing miniatures collections). If you would like a game that includes one or more Polyversal Battlegroups, consider our Polyversal sets that include miniatures.

Polyversal Arsenal is included and is a free companion web-based application that allows players to easily customize Combatant Tiles for any models from any range.

What Players Say:

"A level of crunch in the app to make units, and streamlined gameplay makes it a perfect combination for me." - Lee Sweeney

"Every mini I've been hoarding for 30 years finally has a use!" - Charles Lewis

"Full marks to the Arsenal app, very easy to use. Also the rules allow plenty of variation so models that would have been very similar to other models in other rule sets can be made different in Polyversal" - Tim Snoddy

"The game is quick, it’s tactical and has a great command and control mechanism, so it’s perfect for playing large sci-fi games."  - Mike Hobbs

"Polyversal has a lot going for it; an engrossing story line and framework for gamers to help build upon and expand, astounding art from Bruno Werneck, a self-contained box set with elegant, streamlined rules that you can put right on the table, and an open system from which you can adopt your own models to, in any timeline you wish." - Review by Maurice Fitzgerald
