We are happy to introduce the 4th expansion of Race for the Galaxy: Alien Artifacts
This expansion is a "reboot" which takes Race for the Galaxy completely in a new direction: the exploration of the Alien Orb. Indeed, in addition to the 46 new cards, this expansion includes 49 new "orb" cards which are used to build a kind of maze: the Alien Orb.
During the "I. Explorer" phase, the players can do 2 of the 3 orb actions (or the 3 actions if they choose the special Explorer: Orb) :
_ Move a Survey team inside the Alien Orb, trying to get some artifact.
_ Place a new Orb card, extending the Alien Orb.
_ Draw a new Orb card.
The artifacts collected in the Orb are bringing some special one-time power (ex: alien resource, military bonus, ...) + victory points.
Like the previous expansions, "Alien Artifacts" is available only for Club Members. The lucky players who can activate this option can then choose to play with whoever they want to (including non-members)
BGA would like to thank Rio Grande Games and Tom Lehmann for giving us this opportunity to have this game here!
Enjoy!
