## Description
Get ready for more space action in Warp's Edge: Anomaly! This expansion throws you even deeper into enemy territory, where your overclocked warp drive starts creating anomalies – little tears in spacetime that mess with everything. The big twist is that you can use these anomalies to your advantage, but beware, they can hinder you as much as they help. It's a solo game focused on space combat and building your own arsenal, now with more options than ever. The expansion introduces two new motherships, two new player ships, a bunch of enemy cards and brand-new skills, plus challenge cards that alter the difficulty for each mothership. The main new feature is the anomaly tokens, which you draw from a separate bag. One moment they give you a problem, the next, an advantage. It's the kind of game that makes you think fast and adapt each round. If you enjoy the idea of piloting a starfighter, improving your deck (or bag, in this case!) and facing ever-increasing challenges, all by yourself, this expansion is a perfect fit. The anomaly mechanic adds an extra layer of unpredictness and strategy, ensuring no two games are the same. Boost the replayability and tension of your solo experience with Warp's Edge: Anomaly!
