X-Wing meets LEGO miniatures game Snap Ship Tactics releases a starter set into retail next month

Clever customisable miniatures games Snap Ship Tactics has partnered with tabletop publisher Flat River Games to distribute a starter set for its modular, outer space dogfighting title. The box will hit retail on September 15th and contain enough ship pieces for two eager pilots. According to ICv2, Snap Ship Tactics will enjoy a retail showing off the back of a successful Kickstarter campaign last year that managed to raise nearly $300,000. Fulfilment to backers is reportedly well underway, which makes this distribution deal with Flat River especially timely. The company is currently partnered with 17 different design studios, including the Italy-based Horrible Guild and King of Tokyo publisher Iello. Dicebreaker first encountered Snap Ship Tactics at PAX Unplugged in 2022, and it quickly won us over with its X-Wing-meets-LEGO design. Players construct their ships from modular parts, swapping out engines, wings, weapons and more to build a fully custom loadout for the ensuing skirmish amid asteroid fields and other interstellar hazards.
