Lightning Strike is a 1999 miniatures wargame published by Dream Pod 9. Its Gameplay section states that it is 'a game in which tactical fleet combat takes place in the Jovian Chronicles universe,' Dream Pod 9's own science fiction setting, staging battles between spacecraft squadrons rather than single-ship or ground engagements. The game drew coverage in the gaming press of the period, including Pyramid magazine and the French magazine Backstab (issue 30, 2001), reflecting the existing hobby audience already following Dream Pod 9's broader Jovian Chronicles line. It is catalogued among board games introduced in 1999 and titles published by Dream Pod 9. Further detail on its specific rules, scale and components is outstanding for a later research pass.
