Contention for Galaxus, Between the Multiverse Customs

[SchismaticSounds]

Introductory poem

Spoiler Alert!

Inhabitants of deep space assemble among hosts..
Vortiza has awakened,
restlessly stirred from a timeless lull beyond dreams.
Decreed, an end draws near.
For the sake of a new beginning.
An end to the endless wars.
An end to the bloodshed and betrayal.

What would those left of this universe to say, as the infants lye unaware?

"Idle time sways, passes and drifts.
Bouncing lights, a concrescent gleam rifts.
Convulsing energy decays.
Into the stream of days..."

United as one, the generals of war.
Nay would they allow this to be such an end.
If any strength is left in bones to be drug,
may there be a chance to waylay such amass.
Upon the wastes they will fight
In Contention for Galaxus.

Favorite space battle mats. -#1#2#3


Because of the price on these, I decided to make my own with some spray paint on vinyl window roller shade material.
Stencil for drawing the hexes.

My Budget Space Mat

Spoiler Alert!

The Space mat ground is called Aether.
Galaxus battles will either take place on an Aether mat or using AotP Shadows over Innistrad dark mats for Planetary ground. Swamp terrain looks great on the planetary ground.

Along with the coming figure pack releases, there will be a few glyphs and unique terrain features including Dimensional Rift Portals, Distortion Nebula, Plasma Pools and possibly Black Holes and more. Shout out to blast_shark for his idea contribution on the unique terrain. I'd like to create a manual in the future to help visualize said rules.


Vortiza --(Pronounced vor-tea-zuh, alternatively vor-teet-zuh or also alternatively vor-tih-zuh)

Spoiler Alert!

This figure ended up being too large to fit on a single base, but can be used fine on an open map and also works on a triple triangle base.
I will soon have a 3d model for this that can be printed to smaller scale for whatever that's worth.

+-+-+-+-+DISTORTION NEBULA+-+-+-+-+

Spoiler Alert!

Rules for Distortion Nebula:

Vision: If a figure is entirely on Distortion Nebula spaces, that figure only has visible hit zones to figures within 3 spaces of the figure.

Movement: Move on Distortion Nebula counting the first hex as 2 spaces. After moving into the first Distortion Nebula during movement, moving onto any more Distortion Nebula counts as 1 hex. Figures may fly or leap over Distortion Nebula, counting each hex as 1 space. Though landing into Nebula would still count as 2 just as slippery ice or heavy snow.

Damage: At the end of the round, roll 1 combat die for every figure on a Distortion Nebula Space. If a skull is rolled, inflict 1 wound.

And these Terrain Bases work well for pasting them on.

+-+-+-+-+DIMENSION RIFT+-+-+-+-+

Spoiler Alert!

Rules for Distortion Rift:

Movement: If a small or medium figure ends its movement adjacent to a Distortion Rift, you may place the figure on any empty space adjacent to any other Distortion Rift. If the moved figure is engaged, it will not take any leaving engagement attacks.

Damage: Before moving a figure with a Distortion rift, roll 2 Vortiza dice for Dimensional Rift damage. Inflict 1 wound for each Vortiza symbol rolled.

Clarification: Distortion Rift spaces are considered a height of one for adjacency purposes.
