Squadrons


In Squadrons, each player commands around 5 to 15 ships which they will use to outmanoeuvre and outwit their opponents in a game of high speed space combat. Squadrons uses the Cadence core rules with some additional rules provided in the following sections.

Each model in Squadrons represents a single ship of fighter or bomber scale referred to throughout as ships, all ships count as having the Vehicle special rule. You may use any models you find appropriate so long as the scale and bases are consistent between players, though ships that fit on 40-50mm bases are typical. Larger ships may require a larger space to play the game.
