(Tempe, Arizona)
Precedence Entertainment announced today details of the much anticipated "War Without End" two-player game set. Specifically designed as a streamlined, entry level gateway to the B5 Collectible Card Game, "War Without End" introduces a fixed universe of cards for head-to-head game play between opposing Shadow and Vorlon players.

Since the release of the B5 CCG, players and fans have sought a way to play the great ancient races that manipulate many of the behind-the-scenes events in the Babylon 5 space station. At the same time, players have been looking for an exceptionally strong two-player game scenario to compliment the already strong multi-player game play of the Babylon 5 CCG. Now both desires are being fully realized in a single landmark game set.

"War Without End" features two 60 card stand alone decks - one each for the Shadow player and the Vorlon player. The boxed set ships in September 1999 and will retail for $19.99.

In "War Without End" the Babylon 5 Collectible Card Game game rules are streamlined for faster, introductory play. Players compete to win favor or sow disruption among the younger races while raising tensions between the Shadows and Vorlons. Designer Dave Mitchell describes the game as "an epic conflict between two ancient races, where if the tensions become too high, all could be lost." In game terms, if tension is driven to seven, the Third Age begins, and the game will end. This mechanic adds an unpredictable element to the game that encourages players to use strategy and imagination.

Precedence Entertainment produces the Babylon 5 Collectible Card Game, the Fortune Teller Game, and publishes books in the IMMORTAL series. Precedence will debut a CCG based the smash-hit electronic game, Tomb Raider, in August, and a CCG based on Robert Jordon's best-selling Wheel of Time fantasy novel series in October of 1999. War Without End is designed by OSTA Productions.
