This expansion depicts the galaxy as being under attack by waves of violently xenophobic aliens, dubbed the Xenos. Adds Xeno military worlds (worlds conquered and occupied by them), specific military vs. Xenos, and a new keyword: ANTI-XENO.
Aimed at intermediate players, the expansion includes 51 game cards to be added to the base set, and includes an optional Invasion Game, with Produce: Repair and invasion cards, a repulse track, bunkers, and various counters.
The Invasion game adds two new ways the game can end: by either repulsing or falling to the Xenos. In Produce, players can repair damaged worlds and donate goods to the war effort (earning VPs). Players can also earn VP awards by defeating their share of the Xeno attackers and having the highest military vs Xenos, while they lose the use of damaged worlds that they fail to defend (until they are repaired). The Xeno attacks take place at the end of each round, starting with round 3, and typically take less than 30 seconds to resolve so that players can immediately return to selecting their actions for the next round.
Will not be compatible with previous expansions.
