Halo: Starside
Designer Xahn Borealis
Date 3/11/2008
Players 2+
This is an untested deck. Its cards are complete, but it hasn't yet been tested.
To play Dvorak: Draw five cards each and leave the rest as a draw pile. On your turn, draw a card from the draw pile and play one Thing and/or one Action. (See the full rules.)

This deck is locked. Further cards should not be added - leave feedback on the talk page.

Choose your side and conquer your enemy in a tactical battle, picking off ships with your heavy guns, or leave things to chance and plunge headfirst into battle, hoping your maneuvers will be enough to save your ships.

This is a deck based around the space combat that takes place in the Halo novels and the limitations of that universe(Slipspace, nukes, shields, prowlers, etc). This is my first deck, so please leave opinions, criticisms, war stories, etc in the talk page. One more thing...no Halo Installations, Flood, Master Chief or Forerunners. It would just complicate things to try and tie this in with the whole Halo story arc.

Turn Structure

You may play any number of Things during your turn, but may not return them to your hand, unless you play Transition to Slipspace. You may play one Action card OR any number of Thing Actions, however you may not keep playing the same action on the same card(i.e. you can't keep using Covenant Capital Ship's Energy Projectors) during your turn. When your turn is done, draw back up to seven.

Winning Conditions

Destroy all of an opponent's ships in play to eliminate them. You can use any method to do this, including: boarder type Actions, Objectives, Direct Engagements or good old fashioned SHOOTING.
Survive to win. Surrender is not an option, whichever side you play, so this means either eliminate all opponents or make a tactical retreat of 4 ships into Slipspace to win.

Special Rules

A player must choose a race and allegiance at the start of the game. These are: Human(UNSC), Human(Insurrectionists), Covenant(Sangheili/Elites) and Covenant(Jiralhanae/Brutes) Each race has card limitations and advantages, i.e. the Insurrectionists cannot use Spartan teams, but can use the Black Market or Piracy to easily procure ships. The deck is divided into each race.

Basically, the UNSC and Sangheili can use things like boarder type Actions to instantly destroy ships, but the Insurrectionists and Jiralhanae can use their specialist Actions to gain(or regain) more ships. So you can choose your style of play AND what race you want to use without being tied to any specific way of playing.

Then draw and play three ships if you are Covenant, four if you are Human. Maximum hand size is seven.

Actions

When you play a ship, you must equip it with an Action before the Action can be used. You may only play Actions equipped to your ships. Certain Actions are not equipped to any single ship and can be played from your hand. These are marked as such.

Prowlers

UNSC Prowlers are invisible to sensors, either until they use a ship Action, or if you equip it with FENRIS nukes or HORNET mines. When a prowler is played, it cannot be targeted by ANY attack. During this time, it may play any card Actions as normal.

Slipspace

Your hand is considered to be anywhere away from the battle. When you put a ship into play, it transitions into and out of slipspace to get to the battle. If you have FENRIS nukes or HORNET mines in your hand when you put a ship into play, the resulting Cerenkov radiation will clearly reveal any prowlers making the jump, rendering their stealth technology useless, in which case they can be targeted like any other ship. You must discard FENRIS nukes or HORNET mines or both if you have them, for your prowlers to remain invisible. You cannot move your ships in play to your hand unless you play Transition to Slipspace.

Shields

All Covenant ships are considered to be WSA(With shields active) at the start of the game. When Covenant shields are dissipated by an enemy attack, they are considered to be WSD(With shields dissipated) for the rest of the game. Covenant ships WSA cannot be destroyed except where cards disagree. Covenant ships WSD and Human ships are both vulnerable to attack.

Objectives

When this is in play, Choose one enemy player to have 5 turns to destroy it, or their fleet is destroyed and they are eliminated from the game. Objectives can be attacked with boarder type Actions in the same way as ships. Playing any ship(including prowlers, which are invisible as normal) onto an Objective protects it in this manner, each ship adding another layer of shielding. Glassing and MAC Orbital Bombardment cannot be used on the Objective until each ship on the Objective is removed from it. However, any ships on an Objective cannot use any of their Actions until put into play somewhere else.
