This expansion injects new life into the battlefield, introducing a limited ammo system for weapons. Now, every shot counts! Equipping a weapon means adding ammo tokens, and when they run out, the weapon becomes inactive. But don't worry, the action doesn't stop there! Ammo crates scattered across the map allow you to resupply your arsenal with a search action, and multiple players can do this simultaneously. If things get dicey, you can even move these crates to safer positions. And the novelties don't stop at bullets! The Ammo Pack introduces grenades, a new type of explosive and tactical weapon. Throw them at specific locations to cause area damage or devastating effects. We have Explosive Grenades, which deal direct damage and to adjacent areas; Smoke Bombs, which lock down aliens and delay their actions; and Repellent Gas, which forces enemies to move against the map's flow. Each grenade has its range and chance to hit, but the dice roll can alter the impact point. This expansion adds a new layer of strategy and challenge to Project: ELITE's frantic real-time combat, requiring players to manage their resources even more carefully and make quick tactical decisions to survive. It's ideal for those who already enjoy the base game's rush and want more depth and variety in their missions. ## FAQ ### Do I need the base game Project: ELITE to use this expansion? Yes, absolutely! The Ammo Pack is an expansion and requires the base game Project: ELITE to be played. ### Does this expansion add more players or playtime? The Ammo Pack does not change the player count (still 1-6) or playtime (60 min), but it introduces new mechanics that can influence game duration. ### Does the limited ammo mechanic make the game much harder? It adds a layer of strategic challenge, requiring you to manage your resources better and seek resupply. It can increase tension, but also fun for those who enjoy this type of management. ### What are the types of grenades and their effects? There are Explosive (direct and area damage), Smoke Bomb (immobilizes and delays aliens), and Repellent Gas (forces movement against the path). Each offers a different tactical option. ### Is the game in English or is there a Portuguese version? This expansion, like the base game, has high language dependency. The rules and components for grenades and ammo need to be understood, so having a translation or English knowledge is recommended. ### Who is this expansion for? It's ideal for players who have already mastered Project: ELITE and are looking for more tactical complexity, resource management, and new ways to deal with alien hordes.
