Micro Cosmos: New Worlds and Old Authorities is an expansion to Micro Cosmos. The box holds 2 modules that can be added to the base game as well as a unique solo campaign mode.
NEW WORLDS
The NEW WORLDS module introduces a new end game trigger and plays around with the scouting action and survivor cards more. You no longer have to wait for a planet of a proper type to be terraformed in order to settle a survivor on it. Your survivors can be sent to the titular New Worlds in order to gain points and benefits.
OLD AUTHORITIES
The OLD AUTHORITIES module introduces much more indirect interaction between players with the introduction of 3 Councils that players fight over. Whoever works hardest to appease a Council, receives a special ability they can use every turn. This module greatly encourages early terraforming which influences the gameplay in interesting ways.
The NEW WORLD and OLD AUTHORITIES modules can be added separately to the base game or played together for deeper gameplay.
