Quartermaster General: Alternate Histories – Research Promo Tile

Hey there, gamers! If you're already into Quartermaster General and want to add some extra spice to your historical battles, this expansion is for you! The research here isn't just for show. This special card, sent to backers of the 2016 Kickstarter campaign, gives you a strategic edge right at the start of the game.

Here's how it works: after creating your opening hand of cards, you can choose to use this card. To activate its power, you'll need to discard an additional card from your hand. In exchange for this small sacrifice, you get to peek at the top 10 cards of your draw deck. Choose one of them to add to your hand and shuffle the other 9 back into the deck. It's a neat way to search for that key card you need or to reorganize your strategy even before the first official round begins.

This expansion, though small, brings an interesting dynamic for those who like to plan every move. It adds a layer of decision-making right at the beginning: is it worth spending a card to search for something specific? For Quartermaster General veterans, it's another tool to sharpen your tactics and surprise your opponents. If you're looking to optimize your starting hand and have more control over what's coming up, this research might be the differentiator you're looking for to turn the game in your favor. Remember, it's one card per player, so plan its use wisely!
