About this expansion

Cosmic Encounter: Cosmic Storm is the fourth expansion for FFG’s version of Cosmic Encounter, adding new alien races and space stations for 3–8 players in games lasting about 60 minutes.

Twenty-five new alien races arrive from across the cosmos, each bringing another way to change the course of interstellar encounters. Guard yourself against the sticky-fingered Swindler, or stand in awe of the massive appetite of the Mouth.

The expansion also introduces ten space stations. Attach a station to one of your home planets to gain an additional power during your encounters, provided you have at least one ship on that planet.

  • Twenty-five new alien races expand the possibilities in the galaxy.
  • Ten space stations add special powers to your home planets.
  • Station abilities remain available as long as at least one of your ships occupies the attached planet.

Space stations such as the Big Space Laser and the Alien Outpost shake up interstellar encounters. They provide more options for players seeking to maximize their choices while pursuing galactic supremacy.

Released in 2013, Cosmic Storm gives Cosmic Encounter games new content without changing their central focus on alien powers and encounter decisions. Whether you want to explore the abilities of unfamiliar species or use a station to strengthen a home planet, this expansion adds more variety to the struggle for control of the galaxy.
