Terraforming Mars: Head Start Promo Card

The Head Start Promo Card is part of the 5th Season 2022 Promo Pack for Terraforming Mars. It carries no special tags, but provides a straightforward prelude effect: when played, the holder gains 2 Steel and also receives 2 MC for each project card currently in their hand. Immediately after, the player may take two additional actions, potentially shifting the early game tempo. This card is handy for players who like to kick‑start the game, securing essential resources to build projects and push forward the terraforming goals. As a promotional item, Head Start is usually handed out at events or as a store giveaway, making it a collectible for series fans. No extra components come with it beyond the card itself, but its effect can influence hand‑management, open‑drafting, and even "take‑that" tactics when the extra actions are used to disrupt opponents. Keep in mind that, being a promo card, it does not alter the base game's core rules—it simply offers an optional early boost. If you're already comfortable with Terraforming Mars and want a more aggressive start, adding Head Start to your deck is worthwhile. Otherwise, you can safely ignore it without harming the normal flow of the game.
