Cosmic Encounter Storm Expansion

Cosmic Encounter: Cosmic Storm is an expansion for Cosmic Encounter that introduces new alien species along with a powerful new game element: the Cosmic Storm. As the storm moves across the galaxy, it can disrupt encounters, affect planets, and create unpredictable situations for players trying to establish colonies.

The expansion adds several new alien powers, each with unique abilities that can dramatically change how the game unfolds. Combined with the shifting storm mechanic, the galaxy becomes a more dynamic and chaotic place where players must constantly adapt their strategies.

(Requires the base game Cosmic Encounter to play.)
