Outpost Gamma is a 1981 board game published by Heritage Models.

Gameplay

Outpost Gamma is a game of a conflict involving colonists and explorers with high-tech weapons facing an overwhelming number of natives with more primitive arms.[1]

Reception

Bruce F. Webster reviewed Outpost Gamma in The Space Gamer No. 44.[1] Webster commented that "I recommend Outpost Gamma without reservations. Like Ogre and GEV, you will get far more than your money's worth."[1]

Steve List reviewed Outpost Gamma in Ares Magazine #12 and commented that "its system is not one which admits (or encourages) developing home-brew scenarios as does Star Soldier. Outpost Gamma is not worth a visit."[2]
