The sequel to Scythe sends players on a new adventure into Siberia, where a massive meteorite crashed near the Tunguska River, awakening ancient corruption. An expedition led by Dr. Tarkovsky ventures into the taiga to learn about the meteorite and its impact on the land. Itching for adventure, heroes from the war privately fund their own expeditions to Siberia, hoping to find artifacts, overcome challenges, and ultimately achieve glory. Expeditions has completely different mechanisms than Scythe, though the goal was to capture some of the same feelings that Scythe evokes, with a slightly darker, more supernatural theme.

Expeditions is a competitive, card-driven, engine-building game of exploration. Play cards to gain power, guile, and unique worker abilities; move your mech to mysterious locations and gain cards found among the tiles; use workers, items, meteorites, and quests to enhance your mech; and use power and guile to vanquish corruption.

This is one of my favorite games! Are you accepting anyone as testers?

I'd love to help test this out if you are still accepting testers.

Hi.
I would like to be a tester for the *Expeditions* game. I know the game very well, so I could easily report any issues I encounter. Thanks

I know the very well, would love to be added to the testing group

Oh I'd love to help test this!!!

I would love to test this game.

Very confused why the gold worker was added to the mech draft option when literally nothing else in the Gears of Corruption expansion was included. Nothing in the expansion rules specify that the gold work goes with the draft.

(Also the supposedly gold worker looked very yellow to me when I played it the other day.)

I haven’t played expeditions on BGA yet but the expeditions drafting card explicitly include the Golden Worker in their iconography

This is correct. Jamey sometime likes to use certain aspects from the expansion in this implementation. The Mech draft + starting resources are from the expansion. If you like the vanilla experience you should play without the Mech draft
