Terraforming Mars: Amazonis and Vastitas Expanding (Spanish))

Description

Explore the ancient sea of ​​Vastitas Borealis or play with the huge map of Amazonis, whose global parameter meters are wider! Each map shows a new region of Mars, with different placement bonuses, ocean areas and new hits and rewards.

AMAZON PLAINS

The name of this map comes from the lava flows west of the majestic Olympus Mons. This area is full of energy bonuses and is

extremely flat and smooth compared to the mountain ranges and craters that cover most of the surface of Mars. This large map has wider meters for global parameters, which improve the gaming experience for 4 or 5 players. The quiz simply gives you more space

to colonize and terraform your dimensions. You will also find convenient resources, which allow you to obtain a standard of your choice. Delegate bonuses will allow you to place delegates without cost from the supply (ignore this if you are not playing with Conflicts). You can place the Noctis City where you want and the volcanic areas are marked: Olympus Mons, Ascraeus Mons, Pavonis Mons, Arsia Mons and Hecates Tholus.

VASTITAS BOREALIS

Vast Borealis are a low layer that covers most of the northern hemisphere of Mars. There was a lot of time, it was a big ocean! This map revolves around the North Pole, which is mostly made up of ice. Above this there is a layer of cold carbon dioxide, which will be released when you place a toilet bowl there. This will increase the temperature, but it will cost you €4 million. The first places where you land on Mars, Viking 1 and Viking 2, allow you to place 1 delegate without the cost of supply (ignore this if you are not playing with Conflicts). The map of Vastitas does not have the Noctis region, so you can place the Noctis City where you want. However, there are only 4 volcanic areas where you can place leaks like Lava Rivers: Hecates Tholus, Elysium Mons, Alba Mons and Uranius Tholus.

Amazonis and Vastitas is an expansion for Terraforming Mars.

Explore the ancient sea of ​​Vastitas Borealis, or play the larger Amazonis map with longer global parameters! Each map depicts a new region of Mars, with new placement bonuses, ocean areas, and new sets of milestones and awards.

AMAZON PLAINS
This map takes it's name from the lava plains west of the mighty Olympus Mons. This area is highlighted by energy bonuses and is extremely flat and smooth compared to the mountains and craters covering much of Mars. This larger map features longer global parameters for a better 4-5 player experience. Or maybe you just want more space to settle and more terraforming for yourself. Here you also find wild resource bonuses that give you any standard resource. The delegate bonuses let you place delegates for free from the Reserve (ignore if not playing with Turmoil). Noctis City may be placed without its restriction, and volcanic areas are highlighted: Olympus Mons, Ascreaus Mons, Pavonis Mons, Arsia Mons and Hecates Tholus.
NOTE: Includes 2 additional ocean tiles, 13 cities/greeneries, 1 Standard Project tile, and 1 optional Venus board with a longer Venus track.

Milestones:
TERRAN – 5 Earth tags.
LANDSHAPER – 1 greenery tile, 1 special tile, and 1 city tile (do not need to be adjacent to each other).
MERCHANT – 3 of each standard resource.
SPONSOR – 3 cards in play costing €20 M or more.
LOBBYIST – all 7 delegates in play (no delegate in the Lobby or Reserve).

Awards:
Collector – most types of resources, both on player board and cards (eg different types of microbes only count as 1 type of resource).
Innovator – most played cards (event cards also count!).
Constructor – most colonies and city tiles.
Manufacturer – most steel and heat production combined.
Physicist – most science and space tags.

VASTITAS BOREALIS
Vastitas Borealis is a lowland covering a large part of Mars' northern hemisphere. This was once a large ocean! The map centers around the North Pole, mostly consisting of water ice. On top of that, there is a layer of frozen carbon dioxide which is released when you place a tile there. This increases the temperature one step, but costs you 4 M€. The earliest landing sites on Mars, Viking 1 and Viking 2, let you place a delegate for free from the Reserve (ignore if not playing with Turmoil). The Vastitas map does not have the Noctis region, so Noctis City may be placed without its restriction. It does, however, have four volcanic areas where tiles like Lava Flows can be placed: Hecates Tholus, Elysium Mons, Alba Mons, and Uranius Tholus.

Milestones:
AGRONOMIST – 4 plant tags.
ENGINEER – 10 production of energy and heat combined.
SPACEFARER – 4 space tags.
GEOLOGIST – 3 tiles on, or adjacent to, volcanic areas (any tile covering a volcanic area could be marked with a gold cube until this milestone is claimed).
FARMER – 5 animal and microbe resources combined.

Awards:
Traveler – most Jovian and Earth tags.
Landscaper – most connected tiles (each player counts his/her largest group of tiles).
Highlander – most tiles not adjacent to ocean.
Promoter – most event cards played.
Blacksmith – highest production of steel and titanium combined.
