Well this edition looks very slick.
highlights include
Tech cards. Looks like they increase the amount of token management in the game. Can't wait to give that deck a read!
flare cards remain in a players hand, usable once per encounter. I love this because it will really make hand management critical.
Special destiny deck cards (comets) included in first set.
expansion information
“cone danger” symbol on destiny deck cards, possibly a reverse cone mechanic?
Three more players for a total of 8 (the destiny deck has 8 alien heads on it, five of them in the current player colors, three in presumably the colors of the expansion)
