“It’s unbelievable. Hard to accept that it’s come to this—gunfire echoing through the corridors, bodies piling up. Everything’s gone to hell, straight to hell. Just a week ago, we were on track. The object hadn’t even registered on our long-range sensors. Then came the decision: whatever that thing was, it had to be nuked. It was large enough to wipe out the planet. Our deep-space missile struck true. Object L2T7 was neutralized. But then the impossible happened. The red, terraformed sky split open, and reality itself collapsed.”
Martin Randal,
Chief Engineer Mars Colony One
What Is Jagged Shards?
Jagged Shards is a fast, lethal, single-model skirmish wargame set on a fractured version of Mars where two incompatible realities have merged. Human Colonies fight for survival; the Martian Order fights to purge the paradox. Every battle in this game shapes which reality stabilizes—and which collapses.
You command a Strike Force of 3–8 models, each acting independently. Play involves rapid tactical decisions, mission-driven objectives, and campaign progression across a branching map.
Skirmish Tactics With Weight
Every model matters. Every roll matters.
This is a game where a single critical hit can turn the battle —
