EXALT Strike The XCOM Board Game With New Expansion

November 8, 2016 by brennon

Fantasy Flight Games have delved deeper into the Evolution Expansion for XCOM: The Board Game where the secretive organisation known as EXALT starts to interfere with the plans of your squad.

This expansion adds in more technology and advantages for your XCOM squad but you'll also be dealing with both an Alien threat and the EXALT troops plotting in the background.

The new missions are decidedly more dangerous and you'll be rolling a new die increasing your chance of failure in regions where the EXALT tokens have been added.

This second mission, Annihilation, adds the dangerous destruction cards to the game. These will destroy your research, increase panic in regions or even remove assets and more from the table. It really shows off how EXALT are hitting you where you thought you were safe!

The expansion should be available now so if this has peaked your interest grab it and give it a go.
