Game Format: Missions

One format that can be played stand-alone or be applied to other game formats is Missions.

Missions add specific objectives as a primary win condition. These are offered in several variants including:

  • solitaire
  • free for all
  • teams
  • cooperative engagements

Missions can focus on any number of scenarios such as:

  • capture the flag
  • survival
  • race
  • target practice
  • defense
  • and more

There are multiple purposes for offering missions. First, all players can play different flavors of Dog Fight. This, of course, is refreshing for any long term game.

Second, players also have different opportunities to test different play styles. This can even happen without another player, which is the purpose of solitaire missions.

Third, missions give new players practice in deck customization. Missions may require altering standard decks. This can train new players in how to think through this process.

You can find plenty of free missions available right here to download and try out yourself.
