Thank you! I have the second printing, which has some fixed errata, an insert, and more contrast on the creature cards and tokens. I don’t believe there are any other significant differences, though!

Thanks for stopping by, Alex, and for this absolutely wonderful game! Samuel is still going strong, thankfully, although I am fully prepared for him to turn into the red shirt in the party. Ha! Still hoping to make it very far in the campaign with both of them, though.

I’ll definitely follow up with you about the card quality! I’m used to new components taking a little time to settle in with changes in humidity, but all of mine decided that warp speed just equals plain warp. I disguise it as well as I can in my photos, yet every card is noticeably warped on the diagonal with 2 corners sticking up. Not the end of the world, but I’ll be in touch to see if it’s a rare problem that only affects some copies. The Federation Alliance apparently picked me for their major budget cuts. Ha ha!

I’m sorry to hear the card quality isn’t up to snuff. That’s a big surprise to me. If you wouldn’t mind following up with us over at Cherry Picked Games, I’d love to understand the problem. While our spaceships are low-quality, the constituent parts shouldn’t be.
