- Our take
- BGG threads call it the weakest expansion by far, with mostly dud aliens; SU&SD still rated its space stations second in 2015, so it suits fans of that module only.
- What you need first
- Just the base game
Cosmic Encounter · Expansion
Cosmic Storm
- What it adds
- 25 new aliens and ten space station cards and tokens with the Space Station Conquest variant.
- What it fixes
- Adds a map-like objective layer to the standard game.
