Your galaxies have expanded to the extent of known space. You overlap with your rivals and fight tooth and nail for fertile planets. Now it's time to broaden the horizons. Now it's time to upgrade your ships to the limits of current technology, and prepare them with the brave pilots. Now it's time to go beyond the deep darkness of space into the truly unknown universe...
In Tiny Epic Galaxies: Beyond the Black, players have access to four new ships that they can upgrade their original ships to. For this they have to hire specialized pilots. There are many pilots to hire, each with a unique special skill. Pilots are also specialized in the ships for which they are trained. Hiring the right pilot for a ship reduces the costs of that pilot. The more ships a pilot specializes in, the weaker their special skill is. Pilots are hired by spending unused dice corresponding to the four different ship types, and are worth victory points during play. Pilots are slotted into a deck and spread out like planets.
Additionally, Tiny Epic Galaxies: Beyond the Black introduces an explore your luck option for players. This allows players to go beyond the planets and into deep space, where they can encounter dwarf planets worth victory points, or rare materials that provide resources... or they can encounter cosmic threats such as solar storms, black holes and even supernovae. Either way, exploring deep space provides a player with exploration badges. These badges are tallied at the end of the game and players receive bonus victory points based on who has the most of a certain type of badge. There are four types of badges to collect.
Tiny Epic Galaxies: Beyond the Black also comes with additional planets and new and exciting secret missions to explore!
