Age of Steam Expansion: Outer Space & Reversteam

About this expansion

Age of Steam Expansion: Outer Space & Reversteam is a 2011 railroad-building and delivery expansion for 3–6 players, with games lasting about 120 minutes.

This expansion presents two out-of-this-world maps that challenge your ability to build railroads and deliver goods effectively. Each map changes the demands of the delivery puzzle, creating a distinct experience within the Age of Steam setting.

• Outer Space: Deliveries must travel “straight on,” or goods may shoot right past their destinations.
• Wormholes: Use this handy network to move goods across the galaxy quickly.
• Reversteam: Explore an altered version of the traditional “great lakes” area, where cities want every kind of good except the one matching their color.

Outer Space rewards careful attention to delivery lines and offers wormholes as a way to cross vast distances. The map’s unusual setting and straight-on delivery rule make positioning especially important as you plan your routes.

Reversteam changes expectations in a different way. Its modified geography reshapes the familiar area, while the cities’ preference for goods of every color except their own forces you to reconsider how you match cargo with destinations.

With its contrasting maps and specialized delivery rules, Age of Steam Expansion: Outer Space & Reversteam adds fresh challenges for railroad builders seeking new ways to plan, connect, and deliver. It was available as part of the 2011 Steam/Age of Steam preorder pack from Bézier Games.
