About this expansion

Alien Frontiers: Faction Pack #4 – Prophets of the Artifact is a faction pack for 2–5 players, released in 2014. Strange emanations from the Alien Artifact have given this group of technologies the power to influence the destinies of others.

The Prophets of the Artifact faction introduces abilities centered on Agenda cards, docked ships, and valuable resources. Its Owner ability lets you discard a face-down Agenda card to gain one of three benefits: 3 fuel, 1 ore, or 1 Agenda card.

Its Facility ability gives you access to even more agendas. Draw Agenda cards equal to the value of your docked ship, keep one, and return all the others to the bottom of the Agenda deck.

  • 1 faction board
  • 1 new Alien Tech card
  • 2 new Agenda cards

With its combination of resource conversion and card selection, this faction pack adds a distinct way to interact with the available Agenda cards. Face-down agendas can become fuel, ore, or another card through the Owner ability, while the Facility ability ties card draws to the value of a docked ship.

Alien Frontiers: Faction Pack #4 – Prophets of the Artifact provides a focused set of new faction content in a compact package. Its faction board, Alien Tech card, and two Agenda cards bring the influence of the mysterious Artifact to the game.
