23rd century: The global ecosystem has collapsed and left Earth a ball of desert and sea. Humans have risen from their old home and colonized the solar system.
Stretched out between the sun and the Kuiper belt, the once United humankind fragmented into a number of different political factions, each with their own ideals to defend. Even in the vastness of space dispute seems inevitable. The imminent conflicts could define the future of human society in the solar system and beyond.
In Orbit, five factions fight for Artifacts – strategic assets that would have severe repercussions would they fall into the hands of an enemy. Utilize your faction's tactical resources or combine the strengths of two factions to protect your Artifact and destroy or gain control over your enemies' Artifacts. Choose a faction and build a deck out of that faction's cards to utilize your Artifact's powers but also mitigate its weakness. Deploy Units and battle another player's deck to win the fight and shape humanity's future!
This box contains 277 cards: One Artifact for each of the five factions, two copies of the Alliance Artifact that allows you to combine two factions, and three copies each of 90 different deck cards (18 cards for each of the five factions). There are enough cards to build either one deck of each faction or up to two dual faction decks.
The game is fully playable without tokens, and the rules booklets are available as a free download. A version of the game including tokens and printed booklets is available here.
You can also play the game online for free on Tabletop Simulator.
