Galaxy Trucker

Noch eine groSSe Erweiterung

You are a galaxy trucker and build a spaceship to reach the Edge - where you can make profit or loss. You start with the base of Ship 1, choose a covered tile from the middle and add it to your ship or put it back into the middle face-up and choose a new one according to procedure. You can look at the flight card stack while constructing your ship to get the ship suitably equipped. A part is integrated by placing it next to the base. Then you use eight cards to fly, you stack them and then resolve them. It can happen that you have to abort a flight.

This game was supplemented with Die Große Erweiterung / The Big Expansion and now we get Noch eine Große Erweiterung / Another Big Expansion, in a box of the same size as core game and 1^st expansion. New technologies introduce 42 new ship parts, also suitable for defense against aliens, because there are now aliens in Galaxy Trucker, too, who enter ships and eat crew. New ship classes are depicted on ten double-sided space ship plans including rules for flights in a forth lap, accompanied by Credits. And to enable you to fly you need flight cards, you get them for the previously introduced laps I, II and III as well as for the new lap IV. Which takes to the invaders who enter the ship, wander around and gobble up or blast everything unless the heroic crew manages to overwhelm them. A little assistance is given by the specialists on 18 cards who do facilitate the hard life of galaxy truckers, at least a little bit.

As big, as witty and as indispensable as the first big expansion, cleverly devised, attractive and somewhat of a challenge.
