This expansion also comes with new project cards, corporations, and tokens. In the Ganymede case, this ranges from 1 to 6 plants you will get for trading with that colony. Elysium takes the players almost to the exact opposite side of Mars, vast lowlands for oceans in the north and a dry, mineral-rich south.

This action costs 9 credits, or 3 power, or 3 Titanium. Any player who has a colony on the place in question will receive bonus resources. The other action you can do is to trade with these colonies, getting resources from them. There are only 3 spots on each colony that players can claim so in 4 player+ games there might be some racing for these spots. You will get bonuses for doing this, for example, you will get +1 plant production when colonizing Ganymede and you will get Titanium when colonizing Titan. The expansion adds 2 extra standard actions, the first being able to build a colony on one of these places for 17 credits.

Players will be dealt 4 of these at the start of the game together with the corporation cards and the starting project cards, and of these 4, 2 will be picked and the rest are discarded. Place this tile which grants an ADJACENCY BONUS of 1 plant and. These are quite simple but change the game in such a nice way that you probably will not ever play TM again without them. But the main thing about this expansion is the Prelude cards. It contains 5 new corporations, and 7 new project cards, which are all nice. It will fit in the base game box with no issues whatsoever. This Terraforming Mars expansion is our favorite, and it's probably the smallest one when it comes to components. ![]()
