About the game

What you do in a play session

Prepare to relive a tense moment from the Second Battle of Chin'toka with the Gor Portas expansion for Star Trek: Attack Wing! This beauty introduces the feared Breen battlecruiser, the Gor Portas, which led the Dominion attack and caused significant damage, culminating in the destruction of the U.S.S. Defiant and other ships. The key feature here is the Breen Energy Dissipator, a weapon capable of leaving any enemy ship completely defenseless by disabling weapons, shields, and engines. It's like a space EMP, but more devastating!

This expansion doesn't come alone, of course. You get a new ship to add to your fleet and a new set of cards to boost your tactics. If you enjoy the Star Trek vibe and like commanding ships in strategic combat, this expansion is a treat. The simultaneous action selection mechanic ensures no one stands still, while dice rolling adds that thrill of risk and reward. With variable player powers, each battle can be unique. The language dependency is moderate, so having a translated spreadsheet or cards on hand might be helpful if you're not fluent in English.

It's the kind of expansion that adds a special flavor to your games, bringing an iconic adversary and a formidable weapon to the battlefield. Perfect for those who want to expand their tactical options and dive deeper into the Star Trek: Attack Wing universe, especially if you're a fan of the Breen or the Dominion War saga. The gameplay remains agile, with quick matches that keep you engaged. If you already own the base game and want more ship and strategy options, this expansion is a welcome addition.
