In the Far Future, Hovertanks Battle for Sport
Piloting a turbine is having power. In the arena and outside it. No one’s got more pull and no one can do more damage than the greatest pilot in the arena.
Why else would I be here?
–Raptor Wills, Pilot
You’re a hovertank pilot. You and those like you — the heroes and villains of a million worlds — battle for sport in every corner of the galaxy.
In this future, organized religion takes a distant back seat to enthusiasm for the Sport, and to the adulation of its celebrities, commentators, sponsors, and even the scientists who push its technology forward season after season.
Six dominant corporate factions shape the Sport. Its dominant pilots are megastars and messiahs. Their duels command humanity’s attention. Their tech pushes innovation in every area of human knowledge. Their rules of battle are known as the Law.
There’s the Sport, and that’s all.
What else matters?
–Murdock, Pilot
A Miniatures Game Now In Development
Gravstrike is a tabletop miniatures game. Players use customizable decks of cards to pilot their hovertanks in battles played out on printed arena maps.
Our vision for Gravstrike’s future is open instead of closed, broad rather than narrow. We need playtesters, artists, fans, and more. We’d love for you to get involved, and now is the time.
