Sidereal Confluence: Bifurcation includes variations on each of the nine original species, providing entirely new mechanisms, new strategies, and new avenues for negotiation! These variants represent different aspects or factions within their societies, and include new rules and starting cards that dramatically change each species’ play style. The variants are more interactive than the base game factions, leading to more interesting trades and greater potential for creativity.
