Oasis: Tactical Salvage Reclamation

Oasis: Tactical Salvage Reclamation is a 6mm scale (1/285) tactical sci-fi miniatures game played on a 3'x6' tabletop between two opposing players. The Oasis is full of valuable salvage; artifacts from advanced alien cultures as well as dwindling human supplies. Your objective is to extract more salvage than your opponent– or eliminate your opponent's forces for a more relaxed salvage experience. 'Points of interest' on the board represent likely locations where players may potentially excavate salvage. Once salvage is found and collected, players need to safely usher it into a transport and off the battlefield. At the start of each turn, players may secretly bid away their pool of twenty command points to guarantee that their units get to act first. Bidding for initiative comes at a cost, though: fewer command points available influence dice units and dice rolls. Miniature tanks, aircraft, infantry, and capital ships are controlled by players and may move, attack, and use abilities- all of which are on unit cards for ease of reference during the game. Combat is two-phased and dice-based: first you determine if an attack hits, and then if it has the power necessary to damage or destroy the defending unit. Engagements are quick and lethal- if an attack can penetrate a unit's armor, that unit is more than likely destroyed. The game ends when one player extracts three pieces of salvage or when one player's forces are destroyed. Will your focus be on surgical salvage extraction, or the complete destruction of the competition?
