Fuel to Burn - release 2026-03-14

"Fuel to Burn" is a retro-style, pen and paper, space battle game where players plot the course of ships and ordnance through a star system with planets, asteroids and spacestations.

ADDITIONAL CONTENT
The rules are highly condensed but allow for a huge range of scenarios, additional rules, narrative campaigns, challenges and scripted solo play scenarios. It is also possible to play Fuel to Burn in different scales and in different constellations (teams, Game Masters etc.). The necessary rules, instructions, examples and build files (3D-print and LASER-cut) will be published on this website as soon as it is available. In the future, if there's enough interest we may gather all of it in a proper book, but a humble beginning is better than no beginning at all.
