## Description
If you think organizing the X-Men is already a headache, imagine trying to get the Gold Team and the Blue Team to agree on anything! The Marvel United: X-Men – Gold Team expansion brings this atmosphere of rivalry and heroism to your table, adding iconic new mutants, each with their own twists and abilities that completely shift the game's dynamics. But don't think it's just more of the same: besides new heroes to save the day, you'll have to face the threat of the Hellfire Club, which is coming in full force to take down the mutants.

The real game-changer in this expansion is the introduction of the 'Team vs Team' mode. Now, the internal bickering of the X-Men becomes a game mechanic! Instead of just cooperating against the villain, the teams can clash to prove who is superior, transforming the experience into a tactical struggle where cooperation is optional and competitiveness is the rule. It's the perfect blend for comic book fans who want to see who truly runs the X-Mansion.

True to the United line, the game maintains its agility with a modular board and strategic hand management, but now with the added layer of tension from team-based combat. If you already own the base game, this expansion is essential for adding depth and variety to your sessions, allowing you to build custom teams and tackle more complex challenges. Ready your powers, pick your side, and try not to demolish the room while fighting the Hellfire Club!
