Hey there, agents! If you're into unraveling the secrets of the espionage world in 'Agents of SMERSH', get ready to upgrade your missions with the 'Secret Mission Cards'. This expansion brings a brand-new way to live your secret adventures, replacing the old fate cards with these new secret mission cards. Each card is an invitation to a new plot, with specific objectives you need to accomplish at designated locations. Think that's all? Not a chance! If a mission gives you a headache, you can choose to ignore the reward or even suffer a penalty to get rid of an unwanted status card. And the best part: unlike fate cards, each completed secret mission rewards you, but don't worry about running out of cards, as they aren't automatically replaced. It's a chance to dive even deeper into the narrative, with challenges that will test your cunning and adaptability. Get ready for a more immersive and twist-filled experience, where every decision counts and every mission is a new story waiting to be told. It's the missing touch to make the game even more addictive and challenging!
