About the game
What you do in a play session
Think you had the global power balance figured out? Think again! Colonial 1700-1800: Plus Ultra shakes up the status quo by bringing the Spanish Empire into the fray and opening up a brand-new theater of operations: South America. If you crave more strategic depth and-new-territory tension, this expansion is your next essential upgrade.
The star of the show is the playable Spain faction. You'll get a dedicated player board, unique tactic cards, and a specific set of colony cards to manage your growing empire. But Spain isn's the only thing changing; the map itself feels alive with the addition of South American-themed-content. Every faction gets a piece of the action with unique colony cards tailored to their national interests—whether you're playing as France, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Spain, or Portugal.
Conflict is everywhere. With new battle cards,-native ally cards that can turn the tide of a fight, and secret objectives that keep everyone guessing, the South American continent becomes a high-stakes chessboard. You'll need to master hand management and area control to secure your dominance in this colonial scramble. Just a heads-up: this is an expansion, so you'll need the original Colonial 1700-1800 base game to actually play. Ready to claim your piece of the New World?
