Aristeia Pre-Orders Open Today!
October 26, 2017 by crew
Pre-orders for Corvus Belli's new board game Aristeia! have now begun.
"One hundred and seventy-five years into the future, the human race has reached the stars. The ancient nations have gathered into immense, international, federated blocks and have divided the star systems proved suitable for human life.
The most advanced medicine makes it possible to extend life and, together with the most advanced (and most expensive) technology, almost reach corporeal immortality.
It also allows treats such as the most popular extreme contact sport: Aristeia! A series of high-level, armed combats where death is a real possibility.
Aristeia! is the new sports game and MOBA style by Corvus Belli that allows two players to take the role of a competition team manager in the greatest visual show of the Human Sphere.
The game will allow players to choose their team and jump into action in the HexaDome, the arena where the definitive contact sport takes place.
Players will enjoy the dynamic and spectacular nature of Aristeia! thanks to the exclusive character cards and Tactics cards representing incredible combat feats.
In little more than one hour, players will enjoy a fun game that will immerse them in strategies and tactics that promise to become addictive."

Normally I am a sucker for everything Corvus Belli do, and I pre-order every new boxed game, rules and things as they appear. However, this month my hobby budget is disappearing on Necromunda, its been my favourite game for more than 20 years.
So, as good as this looks, it will have to wait, bad timing for me unfortunately.

Corvus Belli doing plastic ?
*blinks* …
A fantastic game well worth its place in CBs collection of products.
I preordered it at my FLGS some time ago, but saw it already being soled at Spiel today (at the Burst booth, new german distributor for Infinity etc.) – that leaves a bad taste. Couldn’t get a demo in, always too may people at the Aristeia! booth.
just can’t make my mind up with Arestiea. there is so much hotness out there that I cut sports games out of my hobby as it’s the least compelling for me. but it’s CB and I may just end up picking it up for the fluff and miniatures. i’m unlikely to get it on the table though so as a bit of a collector of all things infinity related it leaves me in an awkward spot.
the art and characters are very compelling and i’m sure the game it’s self will be mustard
I’ll be honest I had no interest in this, then I caught the lets play on Guerilla miniature gaming and I am really intriged looks really tactical and fun. Seriously tempted to pick it up I mean its a limited model game …. no way it could get out of hand right. I am sure this statement sit on top of many a slippery slope.
