Battlestar Galactica, the popular board game of cautious cooperation/suspicion, is preparing to receive an expansion set. Fantasy Flight is working on the Pegasus Expansion, which will add two new game boards – one for the Battlestar Pegasus, and the other for the planet of New Caprica. The expansion will also add “seven new characters, a new Cylon Locations overlay, two plastic Basestars, as well as new Destination, Crisis, Loyalty, Quorum, Super Crisis, and Skill cards”, plus a Cylon Leader character with a new Treachery Skill card type. Of interest to both gamers and BSG fans is the option to use the Pegasus board alone or with the New Caprica colony board, apparently to simulate different parts of the series’ timeline. Admiral Cain and her ship will arrive this fall to rally the Colonial Fleet at game tables. So say we all.
Right on, I love the BSG game and need to go pick up Pegasus whenever I get the chance
