Constructible strategy game

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Constructible Strategy Game (or CSG; also spelled "Constructable Strategy Game") is a tabletop strategy game employing pieces assembled from components.

When WizKids Games released their game Pirates of the Spanish Main in 2004, they were the first to label a game as a CSG. Internally, the term was coined by then-WizKids Communications Director Jason Mical to describe the game where players assemble ships from hulls, masts, and deck pieces punched out of from credit card-like plastic (styrene). A second CSG from WizKids, Rocketmen, was released in summer 2005, and a NASCAR-themed CSG called Race Day came out later that year.

White Wolf Game Studio released their own CSG, "Racer Knights of Falconus", under their Arthaus Publishing imprint in mid-2005.
