About this expansion

The Manhattan Project: Nations Expansion is a 2012 expansion for 2–5 players, with games lasting about 120 minutes, in which players take the role of a real-world nation in the race to build the bomb.

This seven-card expansion gives each player the opportunity to represent one of seven nations. Each nation card is essentially a building, but it brings a unique ability that remains available throughout the game.

The nation cards are immune to two threats: Air Strikes and Espionage. This protection makes them distinct from ordinary buildings and ensures that each nation’s special ability has a reliable presence during the race.

The available nations are:

  • Britain
  • China
  • France
  • Germany
  • Japan
  • Soviet Union
  • USA

With only seven cards, the Nations Expansion offers a focused way to add national identity to The Manhattan Project. Players can select a real-world nation and use its individual ability while pursuing the shared objective of building the bomb.

For fans of The Manhattan Project, this expansion provides a straightforward addition built around its unique nation cards and their special protection. The Manhattan Project: Nations Expansion is a compact 2012 release that makes each represented nation part of the game’s central race.
