It’ll also be available in limited quantities at board game conventions and directly from FryxGames. This Prelude card has *Energy* and *Space* tags, offering a double boost: increase your energy production by 2 steps and raise Venus by 1 step. A strategic addition for players looking to kickstart their engine early or nudge the terraforming track. Ideal for collectors and fans who want every piece of the game’s universe!

Do I need *Prelude 2* to use this card?
Nope! It works with the base game or any *Terraforming Mars* expansion.
Where can I get this card?
It was part of the *Prelude 2* Kickstarter, but will also be at conventions and FryxGames’ website — hurry, it’s limited!
Is it worth it for casual players?
If you’re not a collector or don’t play *Terraforming Mars* weekly, it might not be essential.
How many cards come in the pack?
Just one — it’s a single promo card, not a deck.
Does it unbalance the game?
Not drastically! It’s a helpful early boost but won’t break the experience.
