This was one of GFG's strategic games, in the Battle for Andromeda series. The Andromeda Foundation Official Battle Manual, the series rulebook, is a revised version of the Battle for Andromeda rulebook (see the Taurus Ltd. subforum for that game).

This differs from the other strategic games listed here in that it has system cards: the others do not.

The companion tactical game to this was Vengeance Crusaders vs. the Monads.

This game could be combined with The Collodian Conspiracy.

The exact number of counters included is unknown. Every set I have seen or heard about has had a different number, except for two which have no counters at all despite having uncut system cards. It is often difficult to get precise information from GFG's scenario OOBs.
