About the game
What you do in a play session
This expansion isn't just extra seasoning; it's an adrenaline shot to the base game. It introduces new sectors to explore, meaning the modular board gains brand-new layers of discovery. There are new missions to chase, new types of ships to pilot, and most importantly for solo enthusiasts: a full solo campaign! This transforms the tabletop experience into a true narrative journey, where every decision could mean survival or wrecking in the cold void of space.
With new dangers lurking in the dark corners of the map and treasures hidden on abandoned planets, the 'pick-up and deliver' dynamics and space combat gain a whole new weight. You'll have to decide if it's worth risking your ship in an unstable system for relics or if staying on a safe route is the better call. If you love the freedom of Xia and want more depth, more risk, and a real reason to keep sailing, this expansion is your next mandatory destination. Get ready for chaos, discovery, and, of course, profit!
