Star Trek: Away Missions – Battle of Wolf 359 drops you right into one of the most iconic-and-terrifying moments in Trek history. This is a tactical,-two-player skirmish game that pits the Federation against the unstoppable Borg-collective. As a player, you'll choose your side: lead Federation away teams through the aftermath of the Wolf 359-battle to scavenge vital intel to save Earth, or step into the role of Locutus and the Borg to spread assimilation across the sector. The gameplay blends deck-building-style-elements with-tactical-combat, forcing you to balance espionage, direct skirmishes, and mission objectives. Victory is measured in points earned over three-rounds of high-stakes-action.

Plus, with future expansions planned for Klingons and Romulans, the-battle-is-just-beginning. It's a tight,-focused-experience designed for those who love a good-head-to-head-struggle! ## FAQ ### Can I play with more than 2 players? The core set is designed for a 2-player duel.
