While working at BGG con last year, I got to meet lots of fantastic and interesting people. None more fantastic and interesting as Rob McBride (who I was attached at the hip with). He was demoing his game Overbattle. And now it's on Kickstarter. But what is Overbattle?
Wargaming 4X Refined! by Syther Gaming
Area control, tabletop space warfare... with a twist!! It's w
argaming 4X Refined! 

Includes a unique utilization of cross-genre gaming mechanics generally un-used in wargaming such as drafting, engine building, worker placement and semi co-op components... all wrapped inside of a classic area-control wargame wrapper.
Visually stunning, 2 to 4 player gaming, with a 5th and 6th player via an expansion add-on.
All-new game mechanics such as zero-setup time, and brand new characters unlike anything in gaming that brings the story into the game and the game into the story in a brand new gaming way.

While you come to play "OverBattle: The All War" you leave with an experience that stays with you and drives an exciting level of replayability. Each game is unique and no two setups or experiences will ever be the same.

Over 1000+ pieces, Full color game mats and elements, 40xD12 & 4x D6 color specific dice, 4-Piece Modular Game mats at 30" x 72" total size via 4 sections (76cm X 183cm) for the full deployment, 30" x 36" for 1v1 play (76cm X 92cm). Modular system fits a standard US folding pop-up 6 foot table exactly.

Also utilizes the all-new, multi-tier / multi-dimensional 3D playing combat surface known as the "CASy: Combat Assault System".


But don't just take these words, listen to the explanation I got from the designer himself, in this interview...
