Everything Epic is proud to announce that we have secured the license for the Rambo series to create Rambo: The Board Game! In partnership with Creative Licensing and Studiocanal, Rambo: The Board Game is currently in development and is coming to Kickstarter in January of 2018.
He never draws first blood, he always fights back…
“Rambo: The Board Game” is currently in development and is the passion project of Chris Batarlis and Jim Samartino of Everything Epic. The game originated from the designers’ love of the film, and the passion for making a game that would capture the magic and fun of the action adventure favorite. It’s a thematic, cooperative, tactical, miniatures, scenario-based campaign game that allows 1-4 players to experience the events they remember from the film as well as embark on new, never before seen, missions .
The game provides sealed “legacy-like” mission envelopes which gradually expand the game as each mission completes. Each mission tells a story and takes the players on a unique adventure to various locations to save POW’s, escape a military prison, raid a jungle encampment, defend a secret air base, or survive a treacherous jungle and much more! Missions will unlock new equipment and tactics to help players customize their experience and allow for high replayability and great tactical strategy. Taking actions and engaging in combat is done without random dice, but with a card-based system where the player is in control, and where every choice can be life or death!
Players will choose from an iconic variety of special forces characters each with highly detailed miniatures, including, of course, John Rambo, Col. Trautman, other members of Baker Team, and other companions that Rambo teamed up with over the years. Each hero will have unique abilities and customization options that make them valuable during missions. You control how to approach the mission: Do you go in guns blazing? Or do you take a more stealthy approach? Perhaps you set a trap for the enemy? It’s up to you to decide and lead Rambo and his team to victory!
The Pre-orders on Kickstarter will be available in January 2018 with very special stretch goals and backer exclusives, so I’ll be in touch again to let you know the details so you can share it with your readers. In the meantime, please don’t hesitate to reach out and let me know if you have any questions. We’ll be adding new art to our Facebook page regularly, but if you might be interested in a debut opportunity through your site sometime in the future, just let me know as we would love to work with you to help get the word out about the game.
