The story of Chronicle X begins after humanity has lost control of Earth. The Grays, an alien species of spies and assassins, crippled the world's governments, militaries and infrastructure before striking a decisive blow in the form of a full-scale invasion across the planet. All that remains to challenge the Grays is a small group of soldiers, scientists and terrorists known as Chronicle X. Players will determine if Chronicle X is victorious, and humanity is saved, or if the Grays' tighten their grasp and Earth is lost forever. Chronicle X is a 1-7 player board game with highly-detailed miniatures and a complex rules system ensuring no two gameplay sessions will be the same. One player takes on the role of the dreaded Overmind, high leader of an army of alien invaders known only as "the Grays." The remaining players field members of Chronicle X, a diverse group of skilled individuals determined to save their planet against this new alien threat. The game includes the option of using an AI Overmind, at which point it becomes a solo or purely cooperative game. In any mode, there are always 6 human characters, divided among the human players.
