Conquest of Planet Earth: ‘The Red Menace’ Supplement

About this expansion

Conquest of Planet Earth: ‘The Red Menace’ Supplement is a 2013 expansion for 1–6 players with a listed play time of 30 minutes. It introduces a new alien threat that hides in plain sight while frightened humans struggle to understand what is happening.

The Red Menace are masters of disguise and manipulation. These tentacled monsters lurk in the shadows, misleading their enemies with illusions and hallucinations. They can be anywhere—or anyone—making the threat especially difficult to identify.

As panic and paranoia spread among the already frightened humans, the Red Menace swell the ranks of fanatical doomsday cults. Their goal is to flush out this new hidden threat, relying on the famously reassuring strategy of mobs with pitchforks and torches.

This supplement adds several new elements to Conquest of Planet Earth:

• The new alien: The Red Menace
• New Events
• New Space Stuff
• New Resistance

The expansion was initially available only at conventions where Flying Frog had a presence. It is now available through the Flying Frog web shop, making this sinister addition easier to obtain.

With its focus on hidden identities, deception, hallucinations, and growing human paranoia, The Red Menace brings a distinct new threat to the game’s world. Whether the danger is concealed in the shadows or hiding behind a familiar face, the expansion sets the stage for a tense struggle against an enemy that can be anywhere or anyone.
