About the game

What you do in a play session

The Lunar Exports promo card debuted as a Kickstarter reward from the Dice Tower campaign in 2018 and later found its way into the Colonies expansion (card C21) for Terraforming Mars. This single card can be slipped into any game, whether you’re playing the base set alone or mixing in any of the existing expansions. Its effect is straightforward yet potent: when you play the card you may either boost your plant production by two steps or increase your MegaCredit production by five steps. This choice lets you fine‑tune your strategy on the fly—pumping out greenery to raise oxygen levels, or generating cash fast to fund bigger projects. Like all Terraforming Mars cards, Lunar Exports lives in the tableau‑building mechanic, adding a new line to your personal board that opens up further options. It also adds a dash of "Take That" by letting you aggressively modify your own production, forcing opponents to react to your economic or environmental surge. The card itself is the only component needed, though you’ll need the production track sheet or translated cards if you play in Portuguese. Perfect for players who love customizing their game and testing new combos, Lunar Exports provides a modest but meaningful boost that can swing the outcome, especially in competitive play. Despite its promo status, its strategic value makes it a worthy addition to any Terraforming Mars collection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers before you buy

7 questions
How many players can use the card?
The card works in games with 1 to 5 players, just like any other Terraforming Mars card.
Do I need the Colonies expansion to play it?
No. Lunar Exports is usable with the base game alone or with any combination of expansions, even without Colonies.
Does the card add extra playing time?
Its effect resolves in a single turn, so it doesn’t noticeably extend the typical 120‑minute game length.
Is a translation required?
The card is printed in English; to play in Portuguese you’ll need a translated production sheet or community‑translated cards.
What is the complexity level?
It’s straightforward (weight 3/5), perfect for players already familiar with Terraforming Mars basics.
Can I play the card multiple times?
No. Each promo card is unique and can be played only once per game.
Does it affect final scoring?
It boosts production, which can generate more points at game end, but it isn’t a guaranteed win‑condition on its own.
