Shrapnel Games and Digital Eel announced that Digital Eel's first board game, Eat Electric Death!, is currently at the printers and pre-orders are being accepted. From now December 31st, Eat Electric Death! can be pre-ordered for only $32.95 direct from Shrapnel Games. Current shipping ETA is early first quarter 2008.

Eat Electric Death! is a tactical starship combat game set in the Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space computer game universe. Designed by Digital Eel, no knowledge of the digital game is necessary to enjoy the cardboard game.

Two players (although solo and group play can also work) command the starships of seven races from Weird Worlds in over twenty-five scenarios. Start off small with a furious dogfight, or jump right into the stuff space operas are made of with a daring running battle amongst asteroids to protect the Zorg ambassador. Secret weapon cards shake up tactics, and make every replay unique. Most scenarios take under thirty minutes to game, and even the largest won't take longer than an hour, making Eat Electric Death! the perfect space game for today's on-the-go gamer.
