Space Bureau: Captain Ability Promo Tiles (2024)

Overview

Available at SPIEL Essen 2024.

These promo captain ability tiles can be added to the other abilites of the base game.

All abilities are used before the cell action (i.e. immediately after placing the trade agent tile in the cell). Players are not required to use an ability or may only receive a partial ability bonus.

All promo captain abilities are related to the concepts of ship areas. Each ship consists of 3 visually separated areas (2 vertical columns in each) and 4 rows — horizontal cell lines.
