Eclipse: Second Dawn for the Galaxy – Outcasts (Expansion)^*

Outcasts adds two new playable species to the space strategy game Eclipse. It is a small expansion for groups who have tried every base species.

What's it about?

Eclipse is a classic 4X game. You explore the galaxy, colonize systems, research technology and upgrade your fleets. Whoever has the most victory points at the end wins. Outcasts doesn't change that flow. It gives you two new species that let you approach a game in a very different way.

What's inside?

• The Exiles as a new playable species
• The Rho Indi Syndicate as a second new species
• The matching components for both

Who is it for?

1. You play Eclipse often and know the base species well.
2. You want new starting positions without learning new rules modules.
3. You often play at full player count and want a wider choice of species.

You need the base game to play. Player count and playing time follow Eclipse itself.

Conclusion

Outcasts is a lean expansion. It adds no new systems, just fresh species with their own feel. For Eclipse fans that is an easy way to keep the game lively. If Eclipse only hits your table now and then, the base game still has plenty left to explore.
