About the game
What you do in a play session
Each Order has its own giant card on the table, revealing unique powers that can turn the tide of the game. The core mechanic is this: you start with faction tokens. When you play units or tactics bearing a Galactic Order icon, you place one of your faction tokens on the corresponding Order card. The big question is: will you leave your tokens there to secure end-game points, or will you remove them to utilize that Order's awesome special power? This strategic choice is the heart of the expansion, adding an extra layer of decision-making and interaction.
Galactic Orders not only injects new tactical options but also deepens the Core Worlds experience, encouraging alliances and rivalries with these influential factions. It's the perfect addition for those who already love the base game and want more complexity and new ways to achieve victory. If you enjoy managing your deck, making smart choices, and feeling like you're in a true galactic conflict, this expansion will win you over.
