Breaching the Rift is a miniature based Skirmish Game based in the Breaching the Rift Sci-fi universe. The rules are FREE to download (originally from the Gydran Studio website, but we are arranging a new location) and there will be an option to buy a digital copy if you want to help support the project and keep it moving forward. There will also be an expanded version with the background to the universe in future versions of the rules.
Breaching the Rift is a passion for us, and something that we want to explore and tell stories from the universe. This story world has been created over the last 28+ years and the miniature world of table top games is a perfect setting for us to continue exploring the worlds and the denizens that exist and live therein. From deep within the borders of the Rygel Consortium to the fringes of Mir-Aigne space. There is always a story to tell and frontiers to explore.
Breaching the Rift will allow you to play either the standard one a side Skirmish game or as a co-operative game (currently under development). There will be narrative missions and a campaigns with future plans to create further campaigns based on the rich background of the universe it inhabits.
If you’re interested you can become one of the play testers for future updates of the game. Just get in touch. We want to make this game is one that we can all be proud of. It’s through working together that we can create great things.

Version V1-230624 is currently unavailable to download due to some moving. Hold tight though as we are working to get it back up on the site as soon as possible.
Every miniature you purchase from our ebay store helps us to develop Breaching the Rift and our other games as well as makes us able to design and produce more miniatures. We love this hobby and want to bring new stories from the Rift to you so why not head over now and support the game.

The prospect of an abandoned base full of rich technological pickings proves irresistible to the D.I.A. If they asked themselves, why was it abandoned so urgently and so completely then they didn’t bother to share those concerns with the teams they sent in to loot its riches. They were just the footsloggers, the grunts on the ground, the ones who’ve always been considered expendable. As those teams soon discover surprises are often very unpleasant. But the most remarkable one, the one that made the builders of that base flee for their lives and sanity, is waiting for a tiny rescue party of just two to turn up and they’re going to need charmed lives to get out again
