Defeat Your Enemy’s Station While Defending Your Own
In Orbitfall, players compete to destroy their opponent’s station while protecting their own. Using ships, crew, and powerful star resources, players must balance offense and defense as the Battlefield evolves. Smart decisions, careful timing, and adaptability determine victory as you reduce your opponent’s structural Integrity to zero.
Harness the Power of Stars
Stars provide the energy that drives every action in Orbitfall. Players draw on star energy to deploy ships, crew their fleets, and activate powerful specialty cards that can shift the course of battle. That energy is not permanent. Stars decay over time, forcing players to decide when to spend their power and when to hold back. Mastering how and when to use star energy is key to maintaining momentum and controlling the battlefield.
Command Your Fleet
Spaceships form the backbone of every fleet in Orbitfall. As you deploy ships to the Battlefield, each one fulfills a specific role: whether delivering decisive strikes, absorbing damage, controlling space, or enabling broader strategies. The timing of your deployments and how your ships coordinate shape how you attack, defend, and ultimately win. A strong fleet is not just powerful, but flexible enough to adapt as the battle evolves.
Crew Your Ships
Crew members bring ships to life and shape how they perform in battle. Pilots, weapons specialists, engineers, and mechanics each influence a ship in different ways by improving its capabilities, unlocking special abilities, or pushing it into game-changing territory. Thoughtful crew placement turns individual ships into specialized tools, strengthening your fleet and rewarding careful planning as the battle unfolds.
Change the Course of Battle
Specialty cards such as Protocols, Tech, and Warp give players powerful tools to influence the battle at key moments. Some create immediate, one-time effects, while others enhance ships and reinforce long term strategies. Whether reinforcing your fleet, disrupting an opponent’s plans, or opening new tactical opportunities, these cards reward precise timing and thoughtful use. Knowing when to commit a specialty card is often the difference between holding the line and breaking through.
