Welcome back, Emperor. The time for unbridled expansion is over. Warmongers raise their flags over weaker empires, while civilized planets hide behind peace treaties. Brace yourself for rising tensions in this chapter of Eminent Domain: Escalation!

This expansion for Eminent Domain, which requires the base game to play, puts the following new tools at the Emperor's disposal:

New meaning to the larger ships in Eminent Domain.
Further Role cards to support a fifth player.
Additional technologies, each with an alternate cost on top of their normal Research cost.
New category of technology ("Diverse"), requiring one planet of each type to research.
Optional scenarios for asymmetric starting positions and technologies for all players.
