Race for the Galaxy : Rebel vs Imperium

[sourisdudesert]

Two months after the first expansion "The Gathering Storm", we are happy to introduce now the second RFTG expansion, "Rebel vs Imperium", on Board Game Arena. As we explained 2 months ago, this is a real pride for us to propose you to go further with this game, and if you didn't already read the news about the whys and hows all of this is happening now, we suggest you to read it.

But let's focus on the important thing : what's new on the Galaxy? Many things, including :

• 3 new start worlds. Note that using this expansion, you must choose between 2 start worlds when you start the game, depending on your cards in hand.
• 41 (!) new action cards (twice more than in the first expansion), including 6 new "6 cost development".
• 5 new objectives.

In particular, Revel vs Imperium adds a new (optional) "takeover" power. Some cards allow you - under certain circonstances - to takeover your opponents military worlds. To do this, you need to have a Military that is at least equal to the cost of this world, plus the Military of your opponent. Thematically, takeovers represent border conflicts short of outright war in a galaxy still mostly at peace. If you choose a side - the Imperium or the Rebels - you expose yourself to attacks from the other side.

This expansion has been designed to be played with the first one, so you can play the two RFTG expansions together. By the way, a big thank you to the brave players who are testing this new expansion for few days : thanks to you everyone can now enjoy this expansion with no (major) bug

Please note that the "real" expansion includes in addition a "Solo" mode that has not been implemented on BGA.

And now is the time to make a choice : Imperium or Rebel? "You must choose, but choose wisely".

May the Galaxy be with you

Fantastic guys - thanks a lot!

A nice add in BGA, congratulations!

P.D: I'm having some weak conex in BGA, someone has this trouble??

EDIT: Just an Idea, if you wanna add another expansion or game for premium, would be good if the BETA is for ALL people. If ALL can play, lot of games will be played and more bugs could be checked.

There are still numerous bugs in this expansion. Still a few in Gathering Storm, too.

Wow, thank you very much for making this available. I'm a newer RFTG player and I have been greatly enjoying getting to know this game and the expansions. Many thanks!

Cant figure out how to report a bug, but the new color specific military seems to not register. I had the blue world that provided plus 1 military and regular for settling blues and it did not let me settle a military blue world.
