About the Game

Darkmatter Armada is a game of ship-to-ship combat set in the far future.  The exotic properties of dark matter allow for interstellar travel, and as a result it is the most valuable commodity in the universe.  As an Admiral of the Fleet, you command squadrons of battleships and destroyers on galactic campaigns to secure this resource for the empire.

Play begins with players selecting ships based on cost and capabilities to form a fleet.  These fleets meet in battlefields generated randomly, or in predefined scenarios.  Players alternate turns moving and positioning squadrons of ships to bring the maximum amount of firepower down on the enemy fleet.  Victory is determined by deploying beacons to capture strategic zones, scoring points for Destroyed ships, or in scenario specific conditions.
