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!
銀河競逐︰ 異形入侵
銀河競逐的第五個擴充，也是最新的擴充︰異形入侵，已經可以在BGA上玩了。
這個擴充是個新劇情，意即與之前的擴充不相容。 它也是BGG上最高評級的擴充之一 (8/10)。
為什麼呢？ 很可能是因為這個擴充不會增加很多額外的規則。 如果你不玩「入侵模式」，它的玩法與基本遊戲幾乎完全一樣 ，只是加了很多非常有趣的卡片和新能力。 所以它很容易學會並且為基本遊戲添加新鮮感。
「入侵模式」引入了一個新階段︰ 從第三回合開始，在每個回合結束前，異形便會入侵。 每位玩家必須對抗異形的攻擊，並且必需勝利（即要比他們擁有更強大的軍事 + 異形攻擊 + 異形防禦能力）。 如果你輸掉了，你其中一個世界就會被破壞而無法使用，直至被修復。
因此，在這個擴充當中軍事變得相當重要︰ 可別忘了，否則你會被異形擊垮！
一如其他擴充，異形入侵只有BGA 俱樂部成員才可以選擇以此選項開啟一個新桌，但任何人都能加入已開啟之遊戲桌。
我們在此感謝Rio Grande Games和Tom Lehmann讓我們提供所有銀河競逐的擴充。 我們感到非常自豪，因為BGA上有最好的銀河競逐社群，在短短15 個月內為BGA加入了這五個擴充。
而且，因為這可能是最後一個銀河競逐的擴充，我們想藉機會特別感謝所有七年來在BGA上玩銀河競逐的玩家，令這遊戲的改編在BGA上取得莫大的成功。
好好享受吧！
