Star Trek: Tactics is a multi-player or multi-team game set within the Star Trek "universe" and is produced by WizKids. It premiered at retail in February 2012.

The starter kit and booster pack ships utilize the "Clix" system of game play and are compatible with WizKids' long-running series of "HeroClix" games. In the starter game, two or more players command multi-generational fleets of starships while representing either the Federation Starfleet or the Klingon Defense Force. The duration of a single game is estimated at sixty minutes.

The booster pack ships are sold in sealed "blind boxes" without printed information about which ship is inside, similar to the marketing model used by "gashapon" toy manufacturers in Japan. Unpainted versions of all of the ship molds from the Star Trek: Tactics game were previously released in the Star Trek: Fleet Captains base game.

The company also plans to release the Star Trek: Attack Wing game in August, 2013. The eleven ship molds that have been announced appear to be identical to those utilized in Star Trek: Tactics, although their stands and other gaming elements are unique to the new game. [1]

Star Trek: Tactics Organized Play KitEdit

The promotional Star Trek: Tactics Organized Play Kit was made available to retailers for tournament play in early 2012. Three copies of the Warship Voyager model and five copies of an additional double-sided map were included.

Note: the D7-class and K't'inga-class Klingon ships share the same mold.
Wizkids originally slated the USS Montgolfier to be the non-canon Saber-class USS da Vinci from the "Starfleet Corps of Engineers" novels but licensing limitations prevented this. This is the first appearance of this name and registry, which was created in conjunction with CBS and is a reference to the Montgolfier brothers. [2] Its card lists the registry as NCC-40109 but NCC-94943 is printed on the ship's hull.

Star Trek: Tactics ExpansionsEdit

Star Trek: Tactics is based on an "expandable" board game model, which will allow additional players, locations, and fleets from different factions (such as the Romulan Empire) to combine and create further encounters and battle scenarios.

Away Team Expansion PackEdit

A seven figure Tactics expansion pack was released in August, 2012. These figures were previously released in the Star Trek: Expeditions game but with different "Clix" bases.

Star Trek Movie Mini-GameEdit

A two figure "mini-game" was announced on January 12, 2013 and was released in April, 2013.
