This board game edition of ISS Vanguard includes both the core box, and stretch goals box as Lost Fleet.

ISS Vanguard is a 1-4 player co-operative, campaign Board Game. It will bring players right into epic Sci-Fi adventure, as they will play as 4 sections (security, recon, science, engineering) onboard the first human ship with the possibility to reach outer space. Campaign will introduce the unique story written by Krzysztof Piskorski (Tainted Grail) full of hard player choices, twists and branching storylines. The game will come with over 100 different Crew members, each with unique characteristics.

Gameplay is divided into 2 main stages: Ship phase and landing on planets.

During the Ship phase, players will manage their ship (binder with printed sleeves), where every section will have to make gameplay decisions. Then, you will prepare your crew for landing on the next planet, in search of answers to humanity's biggest questions. Together you will pick lander and customize it with modules, then each section will choose a crew member to take on a mission ( more experienced crew members will have better ranks ), deck-build skills deck, take equipment and choose dices for his character.

During all phases of the games players will be directed to Log-book, consisting story encounters, often written in the form of action-packed dialogues between the characters.

ISS Vanguard Lost Fleet is a stretch goal box for the core game that introduces players to a new part of the galaxy with a whole new adventure campaign.

Many years after Vanguard's initial journey, the global government is shocked by frightening news: Earth's most modern ships have disappeared in mysterious circumstances. The sole remaining interstellar spaceship, the good-old Vanguard, is swiftly refitted to embark on a rescue mission. Little do the crew know that they are about to stumble upon one of the Universe's darkest secrets.

Lost Fleet campaign is a stretch goal reached during the ISS Crowdfunding. This box increases the replay ability and variance of ISS Vanguard. This Stretch Goal campaign takes place decades after the original Vanguard mission. With three much newer Earth's star ships mysteriously gone, it is up to the ageing ISS Vanguard to take flight once again in a daring mission on the far fringes of the known galaxy.
