Cosmic Incursion

Buy this first

Our take
BGG buyers' threads call it the easy first buy (6th player plus Reward deck) and Rob Burns rates its 20 aliens outstanding with one dud and its Reward module widely considered the best; SU&SD ranks it fourth in its 2015 order.
What you need first
Just the base game
What it adds
20 new aliens, an orange sixth player color, a Reward deck and the Cosmic Quakes rules.
What it fixes
Fixes the five-player cap and gives winning encounters extra payoff.
