The Terminator Collectible Card Game (2000)

About this game

A collectible card game based on the Terminator movies, using the same "Battleground System" as the "Aliens Predator" CCG (AP), and compatible with AP. One player uses a pre-constructed Resistance deck, while one player uses a pre-constructed Skynet deck to recreate the time-spanning battles depicted by the movie series. A "Future War" scenario allows for multiple players from each faction while the standard "Termination" scenario more-or-less recreates the first movie. Each starter includes standard cards, random cards, rulebook, quick start rules, 6-sided die, and counters.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
