Modern Hobby Strategy Games

Strange Synergy is a card game published by Steve Jackson Games in 2003 in which players build a team of super heroes to battle an opponent's team. Each player receives three Super Hero cards sharing a base special power, plus nine power cards distributed among the team. It supports up to four players, or up to six with optional bases and flags. The game offers three victory conditions: eliminating all opposing team members, neutralizing all enemies for three consecutive turns, or capturing an opponent's flag.
