About the game
Project: ELITE drops you and your squad on the front lines of an alien invasion threatening Earth. You’re part of an elite squad sent to protect vital targets while facing waves of intergalactic enemies. The game is cooperative and real‑time: each player rolls icon dice in two‑minute rounds, and aliens react instantly. Each round you and your team must use your character’s miniature, move on a grid, calculate line of sight, and use action cards to topple invaders before they reach your base. Scenarios range from short missions to full campaigns, and each player can have unique powers that change how you play. The new edition features fresh art, detailed miniatures, new card mechanics, and new squad members, giving the game a new spark. If you love fast‑paced action, real‑time strategy, and a dash of science‑fiction, Project: ELITE is a pick that will challenge you and keep the adrenaline high.
