Description Edit | History

This second expansion for Race for the Galaxy delves into the growing conflict between the Rebel and Imperium forces. This expansion increases player interaction by adding takeover rules that allow players to conquer military worlds in other players' tableaus. This expansion also includes, among the new cards added, two player-submitted cards.

Requires Race for the Galaxy to play. Race for the Galaxy: The Gathering Storm expansion is optional, but recommended and adds solo play. With only Race for the Galaxy: Rebel vs Imperium, min players is 2 and max players is 5. Both expansions are required for 6-player games.

I'm usually using list of 6-devs to adjust my strategy. But since first expansion come out and especially second one, this list, divided between three rulebooks, became inconvinient, so I've made this one.

7 Modded CCCR - RftG+TGS+RvI
This is a roughly modified version of roxon's fantastic TGS Color Coded Card Reference. It's what i use as my all-purpose RftG card reference. Mods: 1) *updated* RvI picture links & BGG image codes; 2) RvI cards (only 3 get detailed descriptions); 3) pre-set starting hands identified by number; 4) basic stats on number of unique worlds/etc.; Note: printing alignment is most likely screwed up, as i went from XLS->ODS->XLS.
