Star Chamber is a highly acclaimed strategic trading card game set in a sci-fi themed universe, melding card and strategy gaming into a whole new experience! Star Chamber: The Harbinger Saga has enhanced graphics and an improved user interface, new maps, new cards, new sound effects, four player games, a tournament drafting system, and many minor adjustments to improve the game. The engine for managing online play is based on the critically acclaimed The Lord of the Rings Online Trading Card Game.

Players can lead their homeworld to supremacy by a variety of methods – military conquest, cultural achievement or political domination. Maelstrom takes place against a backdrop of strife in the Republic; the Emperor has disappeared and tensions between his followers and rival separatists threaten to pull all of the galactic races into full-scale war. As fighting spreads across the galaxy and cagey diplomats and politicians bid for power in the neutral ground that is the Star Chamber, scholars unearth an ancient legacy, one that all races believe key to its destiny.
