Gaia Project The Lost Fleet

Rediscover ancient galactic history and reshape your interstellar empire. The Gaia Project: The Lost Fleet Expansion delivers a massive injection of strategic depth to the critically acclaimed sci-fi civilization board game. In this first major expansion, the galaxy expands as giant, deserted spaceships from a forgotten era are discovered drifting in deep space. Leaving your home sectors behind, you must deploy specialized exploration shuttles to board these colossal vessels, unlock ancient technological secrets, and claim powerful new actions. It is a brilliant modular upgrade engineered to push seasoned players to the absolute limits of spatial planning and resource management.

The expansion introduces two double-sided faction boards, bringing four entirely distinct alien civilizations into the competitive fold:

The physical layout of your galaxy undergoes a dramatic evolution. New interspace tiles are woven directly between the main sectors, creating unique holes in the map where the drifting ships of the lost fleet reside, alongside two unmapped planet types: Asteroids and Protoplanets. Deep space edge sectors further extend the outer borders of the board. Because standard Quantum Intelligence Cube (Q.I.C.) actions are no longer available on your baseline player board, you must build shuttles and fly out to the lost fleet ships to access these critical, high-powered actions, forcing a total reorganization of your standard opening build orders.
