Tactical Espionage Wargaming
Black Ops is a skirmish wargame of tactical espionage combat that recreates the tension and excitement of modern action-thrillers such as the Bond and Bourne films. The fast-play rules keep all the players in the thick of the action¸ while the mission generator provides a wide range of options for scenarios - from stealthy extraction or surveillance missions to more overt raids and assaults. Stealth¸ combat¸ and technical expertise all have a role to play¸ and players may recruit a number of different operative types - spies¸ mercenaries¸ criminals¸ hackers¸ special forces¸ and many more - to recruit the best possible team for the job. Players may also choose to join a faction - powerful organizations¸ intelligence agencies¸ criminal syndicates¸ militaries¸ or rebel groups¸ each with a stake in international affairs. By doing so¸ their team may receive certain benefits¸ but may also find itself limited at a crucial time. With the variety offered by the characters¸ factions¸ and scenarios¸ no two games of Black Ops should ever be the same!
