Star Hammer Ships and Nautilids Preview!

Post by Daniele »

As the release of Star Hammer: the Vanguard Prophecy is nearing, we wanted to share some more info you might enjoy.

We have prepared a nice infographic, showing off some of the ships you will have to manage in-game and some of the opponents as well!

This is your chance to take a closer look to the 570 meter long Kraken Dreadnought, check out the weapons of the Disruptor and the Sprayer…and more!

In Star Hammer, you will be controlling six classes of assaults ships. Make precision strikes with the swift Swordfish Raiders, or lead from the bridge of a hulking Kraken Dreadnought: the choice is yours.

Star Hammer: The Vanguard Prophecy will be available on 4th of June also on this site and on Steam!

looks pretty but which game rules does this game have? Is it operational or even strategic? Does it have logistics? Combat system? Ship design system? How many races? Dont get me wrong but the communication about this upcoming game is lacking.

It's a game of tactical space battles, at the squad level. It's a custom rule set, with things like energy distribution, shield balancing, weapon arcs, etc. It's a story based game with branching narrative that is effected by your play style. The main story focuses on the Second Contact war between human settlers on a planet called Novus and a space-based lifeform called the nautilids. There is also sub-plot involving a group of conspiracy theorist faction called the Remnant.
