Phantom League: Pilot Academy

About this expansion

Phantom League: Pilot Academy is the second expansion for Phantom League, supporting games for 2–6 players with an approximately 90-minute play time. Released in 2012, it introduces two separate, major optional additions designed to deepen the experience.

The first addition is a new set of Battle rules. These rules radically change the battle system, giving players more tactical choices during conflicts and offering a different way to approach the game’s battles.

The second addition, Galactic Balance, gives missions a larger impact than simply providing Recognition. Missions now affect the Galactic Balance, making their wider consequences an important part of play.

Surface Missions provide another way to gather Recognition while also affecting Galactic Balance. Together, these options make missions more significant and help connect Recognition with the broader state of the galaxy.

• Optional Battle rules that radically change the battle system
• Galactic Balance, which gives missions effects beyond Recognition
• Surface Missions as another way to gain Recognition and influence Galactic Balance
• Additional tactical choices and deeper immersion in the Phantom League setting

Phantom League: Pilot Academy can be used without Mostly Harmless, the first expansion for Phantom League. If you do use Mostly Harmless, the expansion includes a separate rules booklet for that combination.

Whether you want battles with a radically different structure or missions with consequences beyond Recognition, this expansion offers optional systems for making your Phantom League games more tactically varied and more immersive.
