The fifth and last expansion for Race for the Galaxy: Xeno Invasion, is now available on Board Game Arena 🙂
This expansion is a new arc, which is not compatible with the previous ones. It is also one of the expansions with the best rating on BGG (8/10).
Why is that? Probably in the first place because this expansion does not add a lot of extra rules. If you play without the "Invasion game", it works almost exactly like the base game, with (a lot) of new very interesting cards and some new powers. So it's easy to learn AND it renews the game.
The "Invasion game" introduces a new phase: starting from the third turn, at the end of each turn, a Xeno Invasion occurs. Each player must face a Xeno attack, and must be victorious (ie : more Military + Xeno attack + Xeno defense than this attack). If you lose, one of your world is damaged and cannot be used until it has been repaired.
As a consequence, military is quite important with this expansion: don't forget that or you'll be overwhelmed by the E.T.!
Like the previous expansions, The Xeno Invasion is available only for BGA Club Members: as usual, only members can select this option to start a new table but anyone can join the game afterwards.
We'd like to thank Rio Grande Games and Tom Lehmann for giving us this opportunity to have all RFTG expansions here. We are particularly proud to have brought these 5 expansions of RFTG online in only 15 months, in order to have the greatest RFTG community here on BGA.
Also, as this may be the last release of a RFTG expansion, we'd like to take the opportunity to address a special thank you to all RFTG players who have been playing here for the last 7 years and made this adaptation such a great success on BGA.
Enjoy!
银河竞逐：异种入侵
银河竞逐的第五个也是最新的一个扩展︰异种入侵，现在登陆BGA。
这种扩展属于新系列，和之前的扩展不兼容。 它是BGG评分最高(8/10)的扩展 。
那是什么？ 可能主要因为这个扩展没有添加很多额外的规则。 如果进行非"入侵模式"游戏，它几乎和基础游戏完全一样，并且增加了许多非常有趣的新卡和一些新的能力。 这使它简单易学，并且它使银河竞逐重获新生。
"入侵模式“引入了一个新的阶段︰ 从第三回合开始，每回合结束时，发生一次异种入侵。 每个玩家必须面对异种的攻击，并且必须胜利 (即︰比这次的入侵者拥有的更多的军事力量+异种攻击+异种防御)。 如果你输了，你的星球之一将会被损坏。直到被修复前，它将无法被使用。
因此，在这个扩展里军事力量是很重要的： 别忘了，否则你会被外星军队淹没 ！
像以前的扩产，异种入侵仅对BGA 俱乐部成员开放︰只有会员才可以选择开启带扩展的新游戏，但之后任何人都可以加入这场游戏。
我们想感谢Rio Grande Games和Tom Lehmann，让我们在BGA上拥有银河竞逐的所有扩展。 我们感到特别自豪，为了成为最大的银河竞逐社区，BGA在仅仅15个月内将银河竞逐的五个扩展带到了平台上。
而且，因为这可能是银河竞逐扩展的最后一个版本，我们想要特别感谢过去 7 年所有银河竞逐玩家，是你们让这个游戏在此大获成功。
享受吧！
