      <image:title>Facilitated Experiences - Operation MINERVA</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Astrocarrier Minerva has found Herself on the front lines. Stranded in hostile territory with limited munitions, no fuel, and depleted fighters, the veteran crew has no option but to fight back. It will take all of their guts, all of their expertise, and just a little luck for them to fight back against the enemy and make it home in one piece. A single-blind communication and planning challenge that allows players to feel like tactical space-fighter pilots, genius intelligence officers, critical logistics officers, and a stalwart bridge commander. Perfect for discussing limited communication, building resilient plans, and teaching your team to stand up for their expertise. All while saving the galaxy. A “Trojan Horse” facilitated game with professional framing and learning objective discussions. Takes place over one work day, for 6-15 participants.</image:caption>
