Tiny Epic Galaxies: Beyond the Black

Pilots are hired to upgrade your normal ships into Advanced Ships and are placed on your Hangar Mat tied to a specific Advanced Ship; the pilot’s ability applies only to that Advanced Ship (pages 4–5).

Dice activated to hire pilots are placed on the Activation Bay and are NOT used for their normal die actions; other players may only spend 1 resource to follow the action of the last die as normal, but may not follow the other die used for hiring nor follow the hire-pilot action (page 5).

You may take a face-up Exploration Card or reveal the top deck card; if you reveal a green Discovery you may take it and end exploration or leave it face up and draw again (up to 3 face-up cards), but drawing a red Danger ends exploration immediately and if you draw when three cards are already face up you must take the newly drawn card (page 6).

After taking an Exploration Card you resolve its effects and then collect it face down near your Hangar Mat; you may look at your own Exploration Cards but should not show them to other players (page 7).

A ship that stays on the Exploration Mat cannot use a “Move a Ship” action to explore again, though it can acquire culture while there and may later use a Move a Ship action to leave to a planet or back to its Galaxy Mat; ships placed on a Danger Card’s track must advance via that track and cannot use Move a Ship to leave until the track is finished (page 7).
