About this expansion
The Captain Is Dead: Episode 2 – Adrift is a mission-focused board game for 2–7 players, with an average play time of 90 minutes. After escaping the hostile alien ship that killed the captain, your crew is pursued into an asteroid field.
The asteroid field offers temporary protection from the aliens, but your escape has created a new crisis. A rogue asteroid has knocked the ship’s Jump Core offline, leaving you to drift through space. To survive, you must decide whether to restore the Jump Core or attempt to drift through the asteroid field.
This new mission demands a different strategy from the previous adventure. The new alerts deck introduces an even more difficult collection of dangers and setbacks, subjecting your crew to fresh atrocities as the situation grows increasingly desperate.
Your crew is not entirely without help. Since the last mission, they have learned valuable lessons and gained access to new veteran abilities. Some crew members may take on the role of Acting Captain, while others may become a Sciengineer.
- A new mission set in a hazardous asteroid field
- A new alerts deck filled with more difficult challenges
- New veteran abilities, including Acting Captain and Sciengineer
- New battle plans that can make the mission easier
There are also battle plans that were not discovered during the initial attack, giving your crew additional options in this dangerous situation. With its new challenges and abilities, The Captain Is Dead: Episode 2 – Adrift continues the story with a mission built around survival, difficult choices, and a ship left drifting in space.
