A landship getting ready for its journey in the March

You are a Trailblazer... the captain of a ‘Landship’—a powerful vessel shaped by undying dedication and boundless dreams. It is your lifeline through 'The March,' a perilous frontier engulfing civilization's remnants. Your mission: blaze a trail in this wilderness and uncover the mystery at its heart.

Trailblazers: Into the March is a roguelite colony-sim that integrates tactical combat with the emotional journey of procedural characters. Before setting off, you will purchase and customize your Landship, recruit crew members with their own backgrounds and skills, trade supplies and materials, and take on contracts. Once you venture into the March, you must manage your crew's daily lives, witness their evolving relationships and stories, and defend your moving home in tactical landship battles as you explore the vast uncharted territories.
