SHADOW MOON SYNDICATES
INFORMATION PORTAL
This page has been set up as a quick reference page
for those who supported the Kickstarter Campaign.
The Kickstarter updates should always be your first port of call for the latest on
Shadow Moon news and updates. However, as backers of crowdfunding campaigns ourselves, we know how quickly these can run away if you don’t tune in regularly, so we’ve decided to try something new - introducing the Shadow Moon Syndicates Information Portal.
This is where you can find:

The latest FAQ’s as we expand on them
A quick access point for a variety of customer support forms

Registering your interest on this form does not sign you up for our newsletter, but it will allow us to contact you directly to let you know when these are available.
We hope to be able to provide you with a way to add this onto your pledge before the campaign is shipped.
HOW TO PLAY

GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW
Area Majority/Influence || Hand Management || Set Collection || Open Drafting
What was once a small rag-tag mining colony, Shadow Moon has grown to become the greatest trading hub of the outer sector. But beneath the thin veneer of legitimacy, lies a plague of desperate, corrupt, and highly motivated criminal syndicates. Here, success is for the sinful, and fortunes are won through daring heists and ruthless raids. Rub shoulders with the street thugs, corporate operatives, and two-faced humanitarians as you build your syndicate from the underbelly of society, to establish your influence over Shadow Moon.
In Shadow Moon Syndicates, 2-5 players take on the role of a syndicate crime boss. Over 3 rounds, players will utilize their hand of cards to nefariously influence regions of the Shadow Moon, carry out high-stakes criminal operations, and assemble their specialists for the game’s finale. How players manage their cards is the key to placing influence in the most effective way to gain lucrative credits, complete missions, and overcome their rivals for ascendancy. The player who accumulates the most credits by the game's end is deemed the winner.
Will you be the one to rise above the rest, turning sin into success, to become the Sovereign of Shadow Moon?
