The expansion contents: 20 Skill cards (44x68mm), 5 Scoring cards (44x68mm), 8 Tactic cards (63x88mm), 5 Event tokens, 4 Leader boards, 4 Connector tiles, 15 Structure tiles, 45 Structure tokens, 3 Autodestruction tokens, 3 Camouflage tokens, 3 Swamp tokens, 3 Napalm tokens, 3 Infusion tokens, 4 Skill tokens.
New Types of Components
- Leader boards
- Scoring cards
- Universal Structures
If you use the back side of a Leader board, use a Connector tile and place your Structures on the left instead of the right side. Consequently, place your Skill cards on the right side.
Setup Changes
-
Shuffle all Event tokens from the base game and Aftermath together. Shuffle the Scoring cards together and place them in a face-down pile near the board.
-
When separating Terrain Tactics, include the Aftermath cards before shuffling.
5a. Instead of using the base Faction board, players choose which Faction they want to play and draw 1 Leader from this Faction.
5b. Players shuffle the Default skills from the base game and Aftermath, then draw one at random to use for this game. Players then Shuffle all non-default skills from both sets together and draw the appropriate number of Skills. All unused skills are returned to the box.
5c. Players choose 3 Structures (5 for Machines) from all structures available to their faction from the base game and Aftermath expansion.
5d. Place the 3 Universal Structures and the matching tokens near the board. These Structures are available to all players.
Gameplay Changes
Universal Structures
Using the standard Build Action, players may may build a Universal Structure as long as there are Structure tokens remaining for the Structure they wish to build. (sic: "may may" as printed.)
Universal Structures are controlled by the Faction which currently controls the Region. If a Player loses control of a Region with a Universal Structure, the Structure remains and the new controlling Player now may use this Structure.
Events and Ending the Game
The game now lasts for 5 Rounds with one Event each Round. If a player moves their score marker past an Event, do not move the passed Event. At the start of each Round, simply reveal the next Event token and resolve it. When an Event instructs you to draw a Scoring card, reveal the top card of the Scoring deck and resolve it.
The sheet pictures an example Event token that reads: "Draw 1 scoring card."

Reveal each Camouflage token as you resolve each Objective. After the Battle has been resolved, remove the Camouflage Plan token from the Region.

Turbo Harvester: When you build a Turbo Harvester, place the matching color marker on the 1 space of the tile. Each time you use a Turbo Harvester, move the maker (sic) up one space to track the increasing cost. The first time you activate the Turbo Harvester costs 1 [blue icon] and adds 1 Crystal to the region. The second time costs 2 [blue icon] for 2 Crystals and so on.
