The OHMS Gentlemen Set is that Kickstarter-exclusive expansion that brings six new gentlemen into the fray, each with their own dashboard and card deck. Think names like Suzanne Taylor, Colonel Steel, John Brown, Sir Daniel Home, Master Fox, and Parvin Khan stepping onto the scene to shake things up.

If you're already into the steampunk vibe and the strategic battles of Rise of Moloch, this expansion is a real treat. It injects more variety and choice, allowing you to explore new tactics with the unique powers of each of these characters.

It's perfect for those who like a wider range of choices and want to test different approaches in each game. Plus, if you're a collector or simply enjoy having all the latest additions to the SMOG universe, this set is a must-have item.
