Nebula. When you complete this mission, each ship here is destroyed unless you place a personnel involved who costs 4 or more in their owner's discard pile.

Interesting card. This looks like it's designed to be an easy 50-point mission with a cost and potentially catastrophic effect. It fully benefits from Hurried Departure for a likely 2-mission win.

It really highlights the decision around solving a 50-pointer first vs. last. As the final mission, there is no downside. And it's usually a better decision to try and solve your easy missions first and your difficult ones last. But now that means you are going planet first, which can also be catastrophic. All 3 50-pointers revealed thus far are space.

Not so much in HoF now. Nasty Nate hot takes are stuck in 2009 with the rest of the CC.

Your house rules format is only 3 years old.

Some decks can handle it better than others. I usually play x2 and if one lands I almost always win.

Especially when Neural Parasites is better.
Not to mention there are about a dozen apps for those by now...
