These goods can be discarded for victory points or sold to add cards to the player's hand by selecting Consume. Some worlds produce goods, represented by face down cards when Produce is selected. Settle allows a player to place a world in his tableau. Explore allows a player to draw cards and select which of them to add to his hand. Each player who chose Develop discards one card fewer as his bonus. After revealing the cards, each player adds his development to his tableau of cards on the table and then discards cards from his hand equal to its cost. In it, each player may simultaneously select a development from his hand of cards to build. For example, if at least one player chooses the Develop action, then the Develop phase will occur otherwise it is skipped. For these phases, every player performs the phase's action, while the selecting player(s) also get a bonus for that phase. In each round, each player secretly and simultaneously chooses one of seven different action cards and then reveals it. Each round consists of one or more of five possible phases. The Gathering Storm remains the only expansion permanently shuffled into my core deck to this day, but even it is unnecessary.In Race for the Galaxy, players build galactic civilizations by game cards that represent worlds or technical and social developments. Just understand there are no "essential" expansions to this game. If you don't mind carefully marking the planet part of your cards after someone ID's things for you, it wouldn't be difficult to do so and include that 1st edition expansion from the outset. There aren't many cards in that expansion you'd have to mark up to make this expansion usable for you. I'd almost suggest getting 2nd edition and a first edition copy of The Gathering Storm anyway. Good news for non-colorblind people is that 1st edition expansions are compatible with the 2nd edition right out of the box. Existence of the 2nd edition has most certainly slowed sales of remaining stock, which will delay updated reprints. As to updated expansions, the last estimate I heard from him is that he didn't even expect anything to start running out until late 2019 or early 2020, then who knows from there. New colorblind support works great for people I've played with, as colors remain the same and the notations blend right in with existing iconography on the cards. If you think you and friends will like the game, do it! The base game stands just fine all by itself.
