FFG, acaba de anunciar la que será la segunda expansión para su clásico juego intergaláctico Twilight Imperium.
La verdad es que nunca he tenido la oportunidad de jugar ha este clásico de la casa FFG y desconozco mecánicas y objetivos.
De todas formas, sin duda se trata de un título que tiene un buen numero de seguidores y supongo que ha todos ellos les interesará la noticia.
Ha día de hoy, este juego no tiene una versión en castellano, aunque se pueden encontrar traducciones de las reglas por la red.
A continuación lo que encontraréis en esta nueva expansión.
The legacy of a ruined empire silently echoes across the stars, calling out to 
those who would dare succeed it. To some, it is the sound of hope, promising an 
opportunity to bring peace to the galaxy. To others, it is the sound of their 
own ambition – a taunt from a long-dead race, daring another to rise to glory. 
Will you answer its call and guide your people to greatness?
Fantasy Flight Games is proud to announce the 
upcoming release of Shards of the 
Throne, an expansion for Twilight 
Imperium! As the war escalates with the appearance of deadly new 
technology, three new races enter the fray: the Arborec, a sentient ecosystem 
made up of millions of plants; the Nekro Virus, a cold and unfeeling machine 
bent on the destruction of all biological life; and the Ghosts of Creuss, a 
mysterious race of beings made of energy and light. As they join the galaxy's 
elder races, the ruins of an ancient empire wait to be claimed by the most 
cunning, strategic, and powerful civilization left standing.
Shards of the Throne features a host of new 
options for your galactic conquests, from new alternate Strategy Cards to new 
races and units. Prepare yourself for an even more epic struggle for galactic 
dominance.
New Legions Join the Fight
With massive Flagships, heavily armored Mechanized 
Units, versatile Mercenaries, and all new technologies, Shards of the 
Throne gives you even more options when constructing your fleet. Flagships 
represent a civilization’s peak of engineering and their special abilities 
reflect each race’s unique play style, while Mechanized Units are powerful 
planetary machines of war that can be added to your Ground Forces. Want to 
supplement your forces? Mercenaries are elite pilots and soldiers that sell 
their skills to the highest bidder, aiding your Ground Forces or Fleet whenever 
their services are needed.

Control the Council
The new Political Intrigue option lets you control 
the amount of influence you’ll have in the Galactic Council... or undermine the 
influence of an opponent. With a selection of Representatives at your disposal, 
you must choose carefully. Will you send your best orator in an attempt to gain 
voting power, or will you send an assassin to strike at an enemy? Each 
Representative serves his people in different ways, so your political decisions 
have never been more important.
What’s more, you can now offer binding promises to 
other players in the form of Promissory Notes, which offer enticing incentives 
with which to buy their votes . But beware! Such favors can be called in at any 
time, so be careful in whom you place your trust.
Live the Legend
The legendary Lazax ruled the galaxy over three thousand 
years ago, and their fall ushered in an age of darkness. But what led them to 
their tragic end? Shards of the Throne comes with an exciting historic 
scenario that lets one player take on the role of the Lazax, tasked with 
maintaing control over a crumbling empire. Can you change the course of 
history?
With all these additions, as well as new 
Race-Specific Technologies, Preliminary Objectives, new Domain Counters, new 
System Tiles, plus new content for the Shattered Empire expansion, 
Shards of the Throne will propel your struggle for galactic conquest to 
exciting new heights!

the taking!
