As empires rise and fall in Eastern Europe, the rest of the world watches closely. Two factions originating from distant lands, Albion and Togawa, send their emissaries to explore the land and employ their own unique style of conquest.

This Scythe expansion adds 2 new factions: 10 miniatures, 62  custom wooden tokens and 2 faction boards. The expansion also includes new cardboard tokens, 2 new player boards (for use with 1 to 7 players), 6 Automa cards for solo games and a plastic insert specially designed to fit the Invaders from Afar box or that of the original game.

The expansion integrates seamlessly with any version of Scythe (i.e., if you have special resource tokens, that’s fine: the expansion contains no resource tokens).

Initially, the game was supposed to be limited to 5 players, but they wanted to include 2 new player mats in the expansion. It was realized that some people would use the mats to play 6-7 player games, regardless of what the box says, so we had to make sure the game would work for them too! To add scale, the expansion includes alternate abilities for some of the original factions.

This item is an expansion and requires the  Scythe base game to play.
