Stronghold Games popular board game Terraforming Mars is expanding even further into space this October with Colonies.
The fourth expansion for the hit territory building game moves into the outer solar system, where players establish space stations around the planets and moons in a quest for more resources. Most of the moons are not suited for terraforming, but establishing colonies will improve income and resources for the main goal – terraforming Mars. The expansion includes new cards and new corporations for the game.
The box includes 49 project cards, 5 corporation cards, 11 colony tiles, 8 plastic markers, 8 plastic trade fleets, 1 trade fleets tile, 1 reference tile, and a rules sheet. MSRP is $29.95. As an expansion, it requires the base game to play, and is fully compatible with other expansions, including the summer release Terraforming Mars: Prelude (see “Next 'Terraforming Mars' Expansion Offers New Beginnings”).
