We've recently added a NEW FAQ following the various discussions we've had with gamers and their concerns with the game. This FAQ addresses one major issue which is HOW is "TradeWorlds" DIFFERENT from other "deck-builders".
Here is the direct link to the FAQ:
https://www.outerlimitgames.com/tradeworlds-faq
We are still waiting anxiously the production and shipping of our KS backers such that people will become aware of the differences between games and how the "deck-building" genre has been taken into a NEW and "fresh" direction.
Feel free to have a read, if you'd like to know more about HOW "TradeWorlds" is different from other "deck-builders".
Cheers!
That includes the "Planetary Expansion" which you can play after you have mastered the "core" game. And since you already have a complimentary copy of the "core"... That's why I recommend the "Vanguard" version: it adds Missions & Colony cards enabling Trade Agreements during missions.
The "Tactician" is the more expensive version which includes miniatures. But we are planning to offer those miniatures as part of the "Tactical Core". So you can wait for the miniatures until that option becomes available to you.
Our plan is to "discount" the "Tactical Core" for all those people who have chosen the "Tactician" version. So we'll give a discount when buying the "Tactical Core" expansion. The "Tactician" comes with only 20 minis. The "Tactical Core" will feature 60 minis. So there will be a credit for 20 minis for those who buy them now - versus later.
Cheers!
