• Allows you to play Space Empires as a 6-player game without Replicators or a 7-player game with them.
• Even in a 2-player game, you can now play it 5 different ways.  

• Base Empire vs Base Empire
• Base Empire vs New Empire
• Base Empire vs Replicators
• New Empire vs New Empire
• New Empire vs Replicators

Variable, but balanced home systems: Everyone has the same home system for balance reasons. However, you will never know for sure exactly what will be in your home system from game to game.



Scenario Cards: 30 or so cards, and 1 or 2 could be flipped to change the overall galaxy conditions for the game. A couple of these are from the scenario book, but most are new.



Missions: Missions are Resource Cards that can't just be played but require you to complete something on the map to gain a larger benefit. More work, but more reward.



Deep Space Planetary Attributes: The NPA planets in deep space will now have a bit of personality. Some will be harder or easier to take. Some will really be worth fighting over as they will have different abilities and bonuses.



Crew Cards: Notable crewmen that bring bonuses will be on some of your ships. Sometimes they benefit just one ship, sometimes a group, and sometimes a fleet.



Facilities Game: Two new facilities will be added to complete the facilities game.



Much, Much More: extra cards of every type, Starbases, Defense Satellites, Cyber Armor, New Terrain types, additional terrain to support larger scenarios, a 4" box to give you more storage options, and more! 

Note that this expansion contains NO Board. Ownership of the original game, Space Empires: 4X, is required to play. Ownership of Space Empires: Close Encounters and Space Empires: Replicators is recommended.
