The colonization of Mars continues despite everything. As if climate problems were not enough, now politicians are also putting a spoke in the wheel of scientists. Representatives of six parties delegated to the Mars Terraforming Committee cannot agree on anything, choose a main project and approve the budget. But PlayTale believes that the participants of the game will be able to survive these difficult times.
Crises on Mars, big politics and global events
This is an add-on for the economic strategy «Terraforming Mars», which was released in 2019. It adds global events visible three generations ahead. The game will also feature a Terraforming Committee, where participants will be able to send their delegates. Players will benefit from the bonuses and political effects of the ruling parties, but will lose 1 point at the end of each generation.
Gameplay Changes
Before the game begins, the Global Events and Terraforming Committee boards are placed next to the field. Players place one delegate token in the Terraforming Committee queue. The neutral gray delegate becomes the leader. Future and Upcoming Event cards are revealed from the Global Events deck. The Green Party becomes the first ruling party.
The new lobbying action allows you to move your delegate from the supply (for 5 megacredits) or for free from the queue to the delegate area of a party - Greens, Reds, Scientists, Calvinists, Union, or Mars Ahead.
The leading party is the party with the largest number of delegates. In the next generation, it becomes the ruling party, and its delegates return to the player pool. The ruling party appoints a leader and applies the rule bonus.
The effects of the ruling party`s policy token can be used during the action phase. The leader of the ruling party gives the owner 1 influence point, the leader of the leading party and its delegates also give their owners 1 influence point.
