About Airships & Empires

Airships and Empires is a tactical miniature wargame set in a world where a rare and remarkable substance called cellium has transformed the skies into contested territory. Six factions, the British Empire, the French Republic, the Russian Empire, the Kingdom of Prussia, the Austrian Empire, and the Pirate Syndicate, compete for dominance in a world of cool airships, infernal machines, shifting alliances, and hidden secrets that have not yet been uncovered. Combat moves in three dimensions because the sky is not flat, and every airship in the game was designed by the person flying it, built from the ground up with real constraints that make every decision matter before the first shot is fired.

The game is built for the player who wants a fast and satisfying afternoon of tactical combat and the player who wants something more. Campaign rules let you develop your airship captains over time, building new skills, collecting victory points, and conquering territories whose outcomes ripple forward and affect every player in the same community. The world stays alive between games too, with regular releases of new infernal machines, world events, and faction developments that make the setting feel like a place with a pulse rather than a box of components. Whether you play occasionally or obsessively, there is a place for you at this table.
