Apollo's Ring

Apollo's Ring is a ring-shaped megastructure, built around Sol, in order to harness the sun's energy. In 2102, multiple private companies and governments alike, including UISEC, began funding and aiding a project proposed by the Gemini Corporation in order to construct a Dyson ring around Sol to obtain power for projects such as the ongoing terraforming projects. UISEC primarily contributed due to it's potential use for further exploration missions if the Icarus Expedition proved fruitful.

The ring successfully finished construction in 2122, being dubbed Apollo's Ring. The ring's construction was done in a similar manner Scala Caelo, using nanites built by Gemini Nanorobotics Inc. to construct ultra-light carbon nanotubes and carbon fiber reinforced polymer, with little human intervention.

Due to the success of the structure, additional rings were proposed by the Gemini Corporation very soon after the first was completed, with the plans to completely upgrade the structure from a Dyson ring to a Dyson swarm eventually. These additional rings were planned to be dubbed **Apollo's Flock**. Construction for these additional rings began in 2162. However due to the cataclysmic event in 2179, it is unknown what the state is of the additional rings; it is possible that due to the construction process being almost entirely automated, the rings may have finished being built despite the Solar System's conquering by the Kata.
IPSS Galileo

The IPSS Galileo is a spacecraft equipped with the Pierce Propulsion System. It began construction in 2061, and finished in 2074.

The spacecraft was designed in order to travel to Jupiter, in order to begin attempts at terraforming its moons—starting with Callisto—due to the significant progress made in the terraforming of Luna. The spacecraft was joined in it's short journey to Jupiter by a couple newly-developed Caeruleus Artifex, in order to more quickly develop breathable oxygen atmospheres.

The Kyretian Crusade is a large-scale crusade on the continent of Kyretia. After the Eradothanean Schism occured, Eradothanes drew the ire of the nations its fellow Kyretian nations, prompting Zeswain, Ariwyth, and Pryssau to form a co-belligerency in order to take down the country.
Pryssau

The Necrocratic Meritocracy of Pryssau is a country on Istoria. It has no current living leader, instead sustaining on the ideals of its late leader, Garvin Calloway. This is primarily due to Calloway's renown and unanimous approval, and due to the country's status as a meritocracy, has not deemed another individual suitable since.
Pierce Propulsion System

The Pierce Propulsion System is an ion thruster propulsion system which utilizes easily-ionized xenon gas. It was conceptualized by Charles Pierce and developed/manufactured by the United International Space Exploration Coalition in 2058. It allows for larger, manned spacecrafts to travel at ~13% the speed of light.

It was used for the Icarus Expedition in 2083, and continued to be used for many years—even past the conceptualization of the Daedalus Drive, although this is mainly in part due to the 2118 Interstellar Embargo.
Terraforming of Mercury

In 2129, the Terraforming of Mercury in order to make the planet habitable for human life begun.

The terraforming of Mercury finished on 2143, after only 14 years. The shortness of the planet's terraforming compared to the other planets' terraforming is due to the simplicity required to terraform Mercury: requiring almost only the creation of an atmosphere—besides the regular processes of infusion of liquid water and plant life—something easily obtainable at the time with the Caeruleus Artifex.
Panthera

Panthera, also known as **Kepler-844g**, is a habitable terrestrial exoplanet within the Asterithean System. The planet is mainly comprised of large mountainous jungles and forests, and equally large oceans. It is home to Lystus, and the first colonized location in the Asterithean system, Protothesia. It has one moon, known by Istorians as Demure.
Imperium War

* Aizovall looses most of it's northern territory
* Elissa Palamra is killed
* Meleneus Stratis is killed
* Nikolai Cyprus is executed by Aizovallite forces
 Vyscillic Empire
 * Nikolai Cyprus†
* Elissa Palamara†
* Vasyl Livas
* Isadora Leventi
 est. 17.1 million
 est. 54 million

The Imperium War is an infamous war between the Vyscillic Empire and the Empire of Aizovall. It is the largest known war in all of Istoria's history.

Due to the nature of the war, accounts of the reasoning behind it varies greatly from person to person. Some portray the Vyscillic Empire as simply an innocent growing empire that Aizovall deemed could be a threat to it's world conquest, while others portray Aizovall as the innocent and the Vyscillic Empire as the blood-lusting conqueror. Some say both were in the wrong, and their equally bloodthirsty attitude to gaining power and territory lead to the conflict.

It is, however, generally accepted that during the war both sides committed atrocities, although neither Aizovall nor the Vyscillic Empire's descendants have taken responsibility for their war crimes committed. Historical records have done little to prove either way, primarily due to the deterioration of quality due to a lack of careful storage over the many many years.
Vyscillic Empire

The Vyscillic Empire is a former empire on Istoria. It was one of the most influential and powerful empires, rivalled in power only by the Duumvirate Empire of Aizovall.

After the Imperium War, the Vyscillic Empire collapsed, becoming a plethora of smaller countries, such as Vysceria, Vysilliora, Vyscorra, Vysovall, and its most direct descendant, Vyscilla.
Istoria

Istoria, also known as **Kepler-844i**, is a habitable moon of Aeresapia, a super-Jovian planet within the Asterithean system. It is populated by a wide array of countries and nations, such as Vyscilla and Valera. It has a quasi-satellite, named Neos, although it is known by Istorians as simply a minor moon of Istoria's.

Istoria is extremely unique, having a unique previously-unheard of exotic matter, which is later referred to as "magic" by Istorians.
Drire

Drire is a territory of the Valeran conglomerate. It was originally apart of Zeswain, but during the Valeran-Zeswain Conflict, Valera annexed the island and made it a forward outpost for the rest of the conflict. After the conflict ended, the island remained a territory of Valera, under the control of the new capital kingdom of Valera, Ostwynne. Since it is only a territory of Valera, not an independent kingdom, it is under de jure control by Ozias Vepia, the Psali Vasilias of Valera and the king of Ostwynne.
IPSS Dreadnought

The IPSS Dreadnought is a SCIC spacecraft equipped with the Pierce Propulsion System, built in 2084.

Until it's destruction at the hands of a colony on the terraformed Ganymede in 2115, the IPSS Dreadnought was the lead capital ship of the colonies of the Jovian moons—at the time only Callisto and Ganymede.
Terraforming of Titan

In 2129, the Terraforming of Titan in order to make the moon habitable for human life begun.

The terraforming of Titan finished on 2151, after 22 years. While mostly the regular situation with terraforming moons, Titan required much more time due to its dense atmosphere, similar to to the terraforming of Venus. It was however helped along by the natural preexisting source of stable liquid water on the moon.
Tricylla Islands

The Tricylla Islands, sometimes also referred to as the **Tricyllic Islands**, is an archipelago of five islands in the medial region of Istoria. The region does not have its own sovereign government, instead serving as the nucleus of the KMSS, where meetings and joint-training can occur freely. It is also where visitors are typically directed to if wishing to hire one of the KMSS' mercenaries.
Terraforming of Mars

In 2104, the Terraforming of Mars in order to make the planet habitable for human life begun. Unlike the previously terraformed body, Luna—and the semi-simultaneously executed terraforming of Venus—Mars' terraforming was far more straightforward, requiring primarily the heating and bolstering of Mars' atmosphere whilst infusing it with more oxygen and other gases to make it more Earth-like and breathable, before being able to begin the standard terraforming processes of infusion of liquid water and plant life.

The terraforming of Mars finished on 2131, after 27 years, allowing for colonization of the planet to begin.
Kataplithos

Kataplithos, also known as **Proxies**, or just simply the **Kata**, are an extraterrestrial race of sapient invertebrate-like beings which inhabit Proxima Centauri b. The species is biologically immortal, rendering the species unaffected by senescence.

Due to their lack of mechanical technological advancement in comparison to other species like humans, their only means of space travel is via a bio-engineered species that functions as a bioship for the Kata. The species is manipulated by the *Regina* caste, or by it's controlled proxies, using the caste of parasites they (the Regina Caste) are able to produce in order to effectively override the minds and bodies of the bioship species. The consequence of their use of bioships, however, is their relatively slow interstellar travel speeds. This makes space travel extremely inefficient, and so space travel is rarely used without necessity by the Kata.

The species has five castes:

### **Roseus Stella Regina**

The *Regina* caste are the queens of the species, being the primary producers. They are able to produce members of all the other castes. They have a telepathic-like link with the *Parasitus* caste, allowing for direct manipulation of them and their hosts.

### **Roseus Stella Foecundusque**

The *Foecundusque* caste are the drones of the species, only serving to inseminate the Regina caste.

### **Roseus Stella Venator**

The *Venator* caste are the soldiers of the species, and are the second largest caste.

### **Roseus Stella Operatur**

The *Operatur* caste are the workers of the species, and are the largest caste. They

### **Roseus Stella Parasitus**

    The *Parasitus* caste are the most unique in comparison the others, being extremely different physically. They are much smaller than regular Kata, however the most unique thing about the *Parasitus* caste is their ability to function as a catalyst for the *Regina* caste to control the minds and bodies of beings which the *Parasitus* caste infect. This function has allowed the Kata to become a de facto hive mind, under control of the *Regina* caste.
ISS Icarus' Wings

The ISS Icarus' Wings is a large spacecraft built by the United International Space Exploration Coalition, and is equipped with with the ionic thruster propulsion system developed by Charles Pierce, dubbed the Pierce Propulsion System. It is the first spacecraft to use the Pierce Propulsion System.

Its construction began in 2061, and completed in 2081. The spacecraft was designed to hold 4,502 individuals and sustain them for a period of at least 60 years—the time it would take to make a trip to and back from its destination. It was also equipped with a subluminal communicator, built to send messages back to UISEC—with a delay of a couple years at the distance of the destination.

The spacecraft was built in order to travel to the planet Proxima Centauri b, of the Alpha Centauri System, due to the discovery that the close planet is habitable, as formerly hypothesized. This voyage was known was the Icarus Expedition. It, however, was unsuccessful. While the specifics of the event were kept unknown to the public, it was announced on 2118—35 years after the Icarus Expedition began—that the expedition was a complete failure. This failure lead to the major governments of the world to completely outlaw any and all travel outside of the Solar System. This ban came to be known as the 2118 Interstellar Embargo.
Terrors

Terrors are a species on the planet Amaranthine.

Terrors are seen as the most terrifying of all the Amaranthian predatory species, not due to to their raw strength like Ogres, their speed like Canines, their quietness like Mutts, or their quantity like Fiends, but by their *intelligence*. They are believed to be the most intelligent species on all of Amaranthine, and consequentially are the de facto apex predator.

In combination with this intelligence, they possess some degree of telekinetic abilities, able to halt the movement of even Long-Legs at their maximum speed. Their "skin", in spite of it's almost rotten appearance, is extremely durable, able to shrug off even fragmentation grenade explosions at point blank with relatively little damage. This allows them to appear stronger than they truly are—since they have no need to worry about damage to themselves, they can freely smash things away with ease.

Despite all their other monstrous abilities, their most threatening quality is arguably their eyes, with their unexplained ability to apparently communicate via eye contact. This seemingly allows them to open a sort of telepathic link—which reputedly is more than enough to drive individuals without a strong enough mental will into nigh-insanity. Even those who can withstand it for a period can develop permanent mental damage, even to the point of a vegetative state.
2118 Interstellar Embargo

The 2118 Interstellar Embargo was an embargo put in place by the world's major governments, forbidding any and all extrasolar space travel. This was mostly in part to the failure of the Icarus Expedition.

While travel outside of the Solar System was entirely barred, development of interstellar travel, such as Aidyn Reid's Daedalus Drive, was allowed—although distribution of it was tightly controlled. Travel and colonization of planets and moons within the Solar System was also allowed, and in fact prospered due to the focus being shifted away from extrasolar colonization.

The embargo ended de facto on 2179, due to the utter ruination of the Earth and presumably some if not all of its terraformed colonies within the Solar System, and the activation of the ISS Relinquo.
Terraforming of Europa

In 2122, the Terraforming of Europa in order to make the moon habitable for human life begun.

Unlike many of the other terraformed celestial bodies, Europa already had a primarily oxygen atmosphere, requiring much less resources and time to make it habitable for human life than other planets and moons. This resulted in Europa taking the least amount of time among all the other terraform targets, at only 8 years.
Nekros

Nekros, also known as **Kepler-844n** or formerly **Zontanos**, is a "dead" terrestrial exoplanet on the outreaches of the Asterithean System. It has no known moons.

The planet was formerly known as Zontanos by Istorians, until an incident occurred which demolished roughly half the planet and sent much of the area's crust and mantle into space.
Lystus

Lystus is a female Earth-born Kata-infected human, living in the defunct Protothesia base on Panthera. She is the creator of Aestus, and the only known surviving Earth-born human. Due to her over a dozen centuries in complete solitude, she developed an affinity for technological conceptualization and development.
Amaranthine

Amaranthine, also known as **Kepler-844j**, is a potentially habitable terrestrial exoplanet within the Asterithean System. It has two major moons, known by Istorians as Ambrose and Corona.

While due to the planet's strong purplish atmosphere, Istorians are ignorant to whether or not live exists on the planet, in truth the planet is ripe with life—albeit predatory and hostile life. This is discovered the hard way by the colonists and their security sent to Amaranthine by the Pantheran survivors of the 2179 cataclysm in order to attempt colonization of the planet.
Mutts

Mutts are a species on the planet Amaranthine.

Despite their unserious and derogatory name, Mutts are some of the fiercest hunters on the planet, due to their strong senses and extremely fast reflexes. Although they are slower than their fellow fauna such as the Canines and Long-Legs, they make up for it with their nigh-noiseless traversal, allowing for easy sneak attacks.

It's unknown their relations with Canines, but they have been seen devouring Fiends and other weaker Amaranthian species.
Incident No.14

Incident No.14 is an incident that occurred on Kepler-844n, also known at the time as Zontanos and later Nekros. The incident happened in *Facility Zeta*, a facility built by proxy by Lystus to carry out experimentation that are unsafe to attempt in Protothesia.

The incident occurred after a miscalculation with several prototype self-replicating nanites, which threatened to become a gray goo scenario. While slow at first due to their limited numbers, the nanites accumulated in numbers quickly, devouring everything in their path without mercy.

Two hours after the incident began, the nanites reached *Facility Theta*, a fellow testing facility in which several exotic materials were kept safely, far underground. This begun the beginning of the end of the incident; due to the nanites' reckless consuming, a couple of the exotic materials mixed, contaminating each other and consequentially forming an extremely volatile compound. The compound became ignited by the nanites' attempts at consuming it, resulting in a colossal explosion which utter demolished much of the planet and sent a substantial amount of it's crust and mantle into space.

This incident lead many Istorians to develop tales of the God Zontanos falling from grace due to turning against the other Gods, and becoming the ruler and guardian of the underworld—and in doing so, donning the new name of *Nekros*.
Ogres

Ogres are a species on the planet Amaranthine.

Ogres are large, bulky, and strong, able to fling most other species long distances with ease. They have been known to on more than one occasion smash through sturdy obstacles, such as rocks and metal.

Not much is known about how they interact with most other fauna on Amaranthine, although they appear to be enemies of the Canines, with the canines prioritizing Ogres over other prey.
Scala Caelo

Scala Caelo was a space elevator megastructure built by the Gemini Corporation, begun in 2054, and finished in 2063. The structure was primarily constructed using nanites built by Gemini Nanorobotics Inc. in order to assemble a large tether made of carbon nanotubes from Earth's surface into geosynchronous orbit with little-to-no human intervention.

In 2083, UISEC used Scala Caelo in order to conserve some of the fuel for the Pierce Propulsion System for the Icarus Expedition. It was also frequently used during the latter years of the terraforming of Luna, although as technology progressed it's uses began to dwindle.
IPA Improvisa

The IPA Improvisa is a orbital bombardment weapons system, sometimes classified as a WMD, built originally in 2122.

When not in use, the Improvisa remains dormant in orbit, keeping powered by solar panels. Rather than use projectiles which require costly and resource-intensive restocking, the system instead fires large controlled bursts of plasma, although it is able to discharge accumulated energy in order to create an EMP burst.

There were 23 known Improvisa in use, typically placed in orbit of terraformed celestial bodies due to the Three-Hour War, in order to provide a first line of defense in the event of an issue where infantry or ships are not immediately available.
Thymefrost

***Thymefrost** is a lighter gray but not silver she-cat with long fur and a bushy tail, she has a white chest, white paws, and tailtip, her undercoat is white and is semi visible through her light gray topcoat, faint darker gray markings can somewhat be seen. Her eyes are light leaf green. Her personality is shown to be quite stubborn yet very clever. She tends to snap at others and is easily frustrated, especially under stress.*
Three-Hour War

* The Colony City of Elyse is severely damaged, and placed under martial law
 Stellar Crisis Intervention Corps
 * Fleet Admiral Anderson Jackson
* Vice Admiral Mike Harvey
* Captain Elizabeth McKinney
 * 150 infantry
* 1 spacecraft (IPSS Fafnir)
* 2 weapon systems (IPA Lux)
* est. 15 AA cannons
 est. 2,400 (Crew of the IPSS Dreadnought)

The Three-Hour War is a short war which spanned only three hours on September 1st, 2127.

The war occurred directly after the Colony City of Elyse on the terraformed Ganymede shot down the IPSS Dreadnought, with the aid of a small unit of the SCIC lead by Captain Abraham Stevens, as a declaration of independence.

This lead to a swift and merciless show of might by the SCIC, completely subduing the rebelling colony within only three hours.
How the Bear Lost It's Tail

## The Native American Tale

In the old days, Bear had a long and beautiful tail.  Bear would wave his tail around for all to see.  Fox decided to play a trick on Bear. It was winter so Fox dug a hole in the ice on the lake.  He caught several fish and laid them on the ice.  He waited for Bear to arrive. “Greetings, Brother,” said Bear.  “What are you doing?” “I am fishing,” answered Fox.  “Would you like to try?” “Oh, yes!” said Bear.  He moved toward Fox’s fishing hole, but Fox stopped him. “Wait, Brother” he said.  “This place isn’t any good.  I have caught all the fish.  I will make a new hole where you will catch many fish.” Bear agreed and so Fox made a fishing hole in a part of the lake too shallow for any fish. Fox then told Bear, “Now, put your tail in this hole and when a fish grabs it, I will tell you from a hiding place.  Then pull up your tail and eat the fish.” Bear agreed and Fox, laughing at his trick, went home to sleep. The next morning, Fox went to the lake and saw Bear asleep on the ice.  The water had frozen overnight and Bear’s tail was frozen in the ice. Fox went to sleeping Bear and yelled, “Now, Bear!” Bear woke up, pulled up his tail very hard, and his tail broke off in the ice. To this day, Bears have short tails and it is all because of Fox.
UISEC

**Motto** | "Justitia et caute, nos explorare"
 **Membership** | 12 Members
 United States of America
 United Kingdom
 Canada
 India
 France
 Germany
 Italy
 Australia
 Japan
 South Korea
 Israel

UISEC, an initialism for the *United International Space Exploration Coalition*, was a coalition founded in 2046 between many of Earth's major governments with the goal to develop a feasible method of interstellar travel, in order to visit Proxima Centauri b, which was discovered to be habitable by Breakthrough Initiatives' project **Breakthrough Starshot**.

After Charles Pierce conceptualized a method of travelling ~13% the speed of light with an adequately sized manned spacecraft, an expedition named the Icarus Expedition begun in 2061, planning to send 4,502 trained professionals and civilian volunteers alike to Proxima Centauri b.

In 2118 the expedition ended in complete failure upon reaching the planet, and the coalition was effectively dissolved immediately after, with an embargo put in place to forbid any and all extrasolar travel.
IPA Tormentum

The IPA Tormentum is a weapons system, classified as a WMD, built originally in 2084.

The system typically works in groups of three, although can work individually. The system is equipped with an experimental shielding, preventing it from being easily shot down or taking damage from its own attack. It fires an intense shock wave-like blast of plasma, utterly annihilating everything in its vicinity.

There were only six known models of the system, due to limitations put in place because of the weapon's power. All six models are owned only by the Stellar Crisis Intervention Corps.
Tromeri Didyma

The Tromeri Didyma (*"Terrible Twins"*) are twin islands on Istoria, renowned for their environmental instability, such as frequent tsunamis and tornadoes. Due to the unnatural amounts of environmental disasters, no country has claimed the islands, although it is surrounded by **Mavros**, **Pryssau**, **Kortalis'** islands, and **\_\_\_\_\_**. Despite this, there have been claims by sailors sailing nearby to have seen people on the islands.
Eradothanes

The Absolute Monarchy of Eradothanes is a country on Istoria. Formerly known as the Dominion of Eradothanes, is a former empire which collapsed into a plantocratic plutocracy. It known as extremely corrupt, primarily due to its almost non-existent laws, allowing things such as slave trade to publicly proliferate.

The country has been engaged in constant conflicts with most of its neighbouring countries, such as Ariwyth, Zeswain, and Pryssau.
Earth

Earth is a habitable terrestrial planet within the **Solar System**, and the home planet of mankind. Despite the sudden surge of varying planets and moons becoming habitable due to terraforming, the Earth stayed the most integral and central point of the Solar System, the heart of humanity.

On 2179, the Earth was swiftly conquered by the Kataplithos, resulting in the near-extinction of humanity; the survivors escaping to the Asterithean System via the ISS Relinquo.
Old West

Old West is an expansion, which requires a base game. It comes with France.

## Components

* A Western United States map and corresponding tickets
* A set of white trains
* Sets of city markers in every color.
* A cardboard Alvin the Alien chip.

## Differences

* Cities; all
* Ferries
* A singular country
* Up to 6 players can play on the map.
* 40 train cars instead of 45.

## Lore

A different challenge awaits you on the Old West map, as you can no longer build track anywhere on the board. You must pick a starting city and then expand from that city. You can claim control over other cities in your network during the game. When an opponent builds a route into a city you control, you get the points for the route rather than the opponent. So as you are expanding your network, you must decide whether to give points to your opponents or take a different, "free" route.” Finally, this just in: rumor has it Alvin the Alien has landed in Roswell, NM.

## Trivia

* The map's name implies it takes place before the original US map, in 1900. Since the town of Gillette, Wyoming was founded in 1891, the game takes place between 1891 and 1900. Like in the original US map, Las Vegas would not exist as a town for many more years.
* The use of Alvin the Alien in Roswell also implies a date later than 1947.
Anexium

Anexium (Greek: ανεξήγητη) is an exotic matter accidentally discovered in 2196. While referred to by Istorians as "magic", the exotic matter was given the official name of Anexium by Lystus, who thoroughly researched the matter during her many years in solitude.

While the matter's effects are not entirely known, the matter is known at least to work in a seemingly very chaotic manner, destabilizing atoms and manipulating the world around it—such as the manipulation of the tectonic plates and sea levels to deform the supercontinent of Mazitera into the many-island world it currently is.

Harvesting and manipulation of the matter is known to be possible, and has been accomplished by many individuals on Istoria. The effects of it's use however are mostly unique to the individual which uses it. The reason for this is unknown, although it is proposed the reason for this is the chaotic nature altering all the beings on Istoria, causing certain individuals to be more or less attuned to different spectra.
Terraforming of Ganymede

In 2098, the Terraforming of Ganymede in order to make the moon habitable for human life begun.

The terraforming of Ganymede was substantially simpler than all other terraformings of moons, due to Ganymede's preexisting magnetic sphere, something the other moons in the Solar System lacked. Despite this, the terraforming took 20 years, finishing in 2118, primarily due to the earliness of technology such as the Caeruleus Artifex and events such as the 2118 Interstellar Embargo causing minor halts for a small period.
Proxima Centauri b

Proxima Centauri b, later nicknamed *Katastrofi*, is a habitable terrestrial exoplanet within the **Alpha Centauri System**. The planet orbits the star **Proxima Centauri**. It is home to the Kataplithos species.

On December 19th, 2044, Breakthrough Initiatives' project **Breakthrough Starshot** discovered Proxima Centauri b to be habitable. This lead to the founding of the United International Space Exploration Coalition, and later the Icarus Expedition.

After the Icarus Expedition failed, new information about Proxima Centauri b went completely dark, and the topic became seen as taboo, with the planet becoming more often referred to by the nickname of *Katastrofi* rather than it's actual name.
Maerklin

Maerklin is the third installment in the Ticket to Ride series.

## Components

The same as in the first game, but with:

* Purple and white trains replacing blue and green.
* Plastic stackable score markers.
* Germany themed board.
* Tickets feature individual trains/carriages from the Maerklin toy range.
* Additional 6 Locomotive cards which can only be used for longer routes.
* 74 Mechandise Tokens in four colours.

## Setting up

The same as in the first game, but you have to:

* Place merchandise tokens in descending order on each city in the matching colour.
* Divide tickets into long and short tickets.
* Players may choose what combinations of long and short tickets to take.
* Players will take the 3 passengers in their colour in addition to the trains.

## Rules

The same as in the first game, with some added features:

* Countries
* Passengers
* +4 Locomotives

## Trivia

* This map is set in 2006, making it the most recent Ticket to Ride map.
* This map was made in a temporary partnership by Days of Wonder and Marklin.
* This is one of the three base games with purple and white trains.
Vyscilla

The Federation of Vyscilla is a country on Istoria. It is the most direct descendant of the former Vyscillic Empire, which was one of the most influential and largest empire on the planet for centuries until the Imperium War with Aizovall occurred, causing the empire to splinter into many smaller countries.

It is the most technologically advanced nation on Istoria, having discovered gunpowder and in recent years begun making fully operational firearms and other mechanical objects. Despite this technological advancement, the nation has remained otherwise static since the Imperium War, only competing with it's bordering nations such as Vysceria and Vysilliora. However the nation in recent years grown it's military substantially.
Aestus

Aestus is a male artificial human, referred to as a "homunculus" by Istorians, created by Lystus. The reason for his creation, and his entire goal, is to set Istoria back on the right track, by cleansing it of its corruption, and prevent war from engulfing everything.

While he was created in Protothesia on Panthera, he first awoke in the kingdom of Asyae, within the Valeran conglomerate.
Valera

The Conglomerate of Valera is a country on Istoria, comprised of a conglomerate of kingdoms. The country is formed by 12 kingdoms and 1 territory, lead by current the Psila Vasilias, Ozias Vepia.

The list of kingdoms apart of Valera are as follows:

* Ostwynne ⍟
* Prylin
* Vebourne
* Prascea
* Turouth
* Horine
* Costiria
* Karumbaht
* Destridge
* Asyae
* Normount

and the territory Drire.
Reidium

Reidium is an exotic matter, negative mass, discovered by Aidyn Reid in 2122. Reid also managed to find a method of synthesizing the negative mass.

Negative mass is a type of matter whose mass is of opposite sign to the mass of normal matter, e.g. -2 kg. Due to the way in which it behaves with regular mass, the negative mass is able to be manipulated in a way as to allow for the distortion of spacetime enabling superluminal travel through space.

With the discovery and synthesization of the negative mass, Aidyn Reid developed the Daedalus Drive, working off the concept of the **Alcubierre Drive**.
SCIC

SCIC, an initialism for Stellar Crisis Intervention Corps, is an international and interplanetary military force operating within the Solar System. The organization functions as a joint military, and police force, for the Earth and it's terraformed colonies within the Solar System. The SCIC was founded in 2125, seven years after the dissolution of the United International Space Exploration Coalition, of which many of the SCIC's membership was formerly apart of.

In 2115, the SCIC were involved in a short war with the Colony City of Elyse, on the terraformed Ganymede. After the IPSS Dreadnought was shot down by the Elysians, the SCIC sent their IPSS Fafnir, along with 150 infantry and two IPA Lux. Despite being at a disadvantage in size, the SCIC overwhelmed the Elysians and nearly ran their city into the ground within only 3 hours, with the Elysians surrendering and being put under martial law from then on.
Terraforming of Luna

In 2049, the Terraforming of Luna in order to make the moon habitable for human life begun. It was the first celestial body terraformed by Earth, in order to gain more room for the human population's expanse.

In 2074, after 25 years, the terraforming of Luna completed, and so began colonization of the moon.
Daedalus Drive

The Daedalus Drive is a warp drive which allows for apparent superluminal (FTL) travel, at ~900% the speed of light. It was conceptualized and developed by Aidyn Reid in 2124.

Similar to the **Alcubierre Drive**, it works by bending the space time around the spacecraft, using negative mass discovered by Reid—which was given the name Reidium. Reid also discovered a way to easily synthesize the negative mass, allowing for much easier creation and use of the drive. Not much else of how it works is publicly known, due to the 2118 Interstellar Embargo, in an attempt to avoid the exact plans leaking to where any person or company with enough money could secretly build superluminal spacecraft and escape the embargo.

The major governments which are apart of the Stellar Crisis Intervention Corps however had albeit limited access to the drive. Many SCIC military spacecraft used the drive in order to easily traverse the Solar System quickly.
Howlers

Howlers are a species on the planet Amaranthine.

Their name comes from how they let out loud, bloodcurdling screams when alerted, even just seeing anything outside their species usually sets them off. These screeches usually alert the other nearby predator species of Amaranthine of prey, leading them to be notoriously hated and avoided by the Epsilon Squad.

Surprisingly, however, Howlers do not seem to have any natural predators that have been seen—it is theorized by the Epsilon Unit this is due to the commensalism relationship the Howlers have with it's fellow wildlife.

They are known to be rather sluggish when idle, usually drifting along seemingly aimlessly. It is unknown how sentient, if at all, Howlers are.
Invium Armour

1/3
Invium armour is a type of armour developed for the Stellar Crisis Intervention Corps. It is strictly controlled to only be accessible by SCIC soldiers, due to the armour's substantial durability and resistance to damage. The armour is extremely bullet resistant, and is highly resistant against most low-caliber explosives such as traditional fragmentation grenades.

The armour is built of a variety of carbon nanomaterials such as graphene and carbyne, in addition to other materials such as spider silk, nanoceramics, and dilatants.
Zeswain

The Stratocracy of Zeswain is a country on Istoria. It is a very militant nation, with a sizable army—larger than most, although still eclipsed by many other nations such as Aizovall and Vyscilla.

On 3963 the country engaged in a conflict with Valera, resulting in its northen island being lost to Valera. After the conflict was declared over due to heavy losses on both sides, the two countries agreed upon a peace treaty, and have since engaged in trade.
Kataclysm

On September 21st, 2179, a long-dreaded threat finally reared its head. In the early hours of the day, the "Kata" arrived. Bringing thousands upon thousands of their biological ships, nearly all of humanity's homes were simultaneously flooded by the enemy.

While in the first few hours humanity was pushed back, after the Stellar Crisis Intervention Corps was mobilized, the Kata were halted. This lasted for quite a while, with *many* casualties on both sides. Both sides held their own disadvantages: both were ignorant of the other's forces and capabilities, the Kata were *seemingly* unable to launch a ground invasion, and the SCIC were unprepared for sustained large-scale space confrontations—instead more equipped for space-to-ground attacks.

This stalemate did not last, however, as the Kata's forces appeared to dwindle. Their forces began retreating to bolster their primary ship, fooling the SCIC into believing they were preparing to either retreat or attempting a last stand. This, however, was far from the truth. As the clock struck 4:22 PM for the colonies on Triton, a sudden and blinding flash of light erupted from the Kata's primary ship.

With only a few seconds in duration, Triton was no more. Millions of individuals dead at all once, with no warning. In some ways, this demoralized the SCIC. In others, it made their anger and determination stronger. But it did not matter; as the Kata unveiled the fact the attack just now was not their trump card, but their final warning to back down before things are irreversible.

Across the many planets and moons colonized by humanity, billions all suddenly turned against their fellow humans. Some simply violently attacked others as if they had lost all reasoning, while others began skillfully massacring everyone in sight. Ships that remained untouched by the conflict appeared to be safe, however those afflicted with damages began breaking out no differently than the planet and moon populations.

In the complete chaos, SCIC chain of command began breaking down. Some attempted to run, to escape the Solar System; however Kata ships flew free once more, hunting the potential escapees down and slaughtering them before they could make the jump.

Within only a few hours, most of humanity had fallen, and there were few remaining military forces left. It was the end, and everyone who had survived until then knew that. It was time for the SCIC to unveil their final card: the ISS Relinquo. With every survivor SCIC could safely find, the ISS Relinquo begun its departure.

Not unlike the Kata's own earlier tactic, remaining SCIC forces surrounded the ISS Relinquo and by any means necessary defended it. Even if it meant suicidal attacks and using themselves as no more than expensive shields, the ISS Relinquo's departure was worth it.

And it succeeded; leaving everyone behind, the ISS Relinquo set out with but one destination: Kepler 844.
Vysali Strait

The Vysali Strait is a strait between the countries **\_\_\_\_\_** and **Tserali**. The strait is often used by merchants to go two and from the two continents. \_\_\_\_\_ and Tserali both agreed that the docks at the Vysali Strait should be free and open for any (non-barred) country to use, and so the strait became one of the most popular places in the world for trade, boosting the two countries' economies substantially.
Terraforming of Venus

In 2126, the Terraforming of Venus in order to make the planet habitable for human life begun. The process required two major alterations to the planet.

1. 1. The surface temperature of Venus was lowered from 462°C (864°F) to a much more manageable 15°C (59°F).

1. 2. The planet's dense 9.2 MPa carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide atmosphere was removed, instead replaced with a more Earth-like breathable oxygen atmosphere.

These alterations allowed for other processes to begin, such as the infusion of liquid water, and later plant life to help sustain the oxygen atmosphere.

After only 32 years, on 2158, the terraforming of the planet finished, and large-scale colonization was able to begin.
Bebedor do Fenwick

O **Bebedor do Fenwick** é um bebedor em nome do Fenwick, que ajudou o colégio a conseguir.

### Special Notes

Damage Resistance cold, fire, lightning; bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing from nonmagical attacksDamage Immunities poison

## Vrock

Vrocks are dull-witted, capricious Fiends that live only to create pain and carnage. A vrock resembles a giant hybrid of humanoid and Vulture, its gnarled, bestial body and broad wings stinking of offal.

Vrocks gobble humanoid flesh whenever they can, stunning potential prey with an ear-splitting shriek, then swooping down to Attack with beak and claw. Vrocks can shake their wings, releasing clouds of toxic spores.

Coveting pretty things, vrocks turn against each other for the chance to lay claim to cheap jewelry or ornamental stones. Despite their love of Treasure, vrocks are difficult to bribe, seeing no reason to bargain when they can simply take what they want from a would-be bargainer’s corpse.
ISS Relinquo

The ISS Relinquo is a large spacecraft equipped with the Daedalus Drive, allowing for superluminal (FTL) travel through space. The purpose of the ship is to be able to hold many thousands of individuals, in the event the Solar System must be left.

The ship's construction began in 2125, only a year after the Daedalus Drive was developed, and completed only four years later. This swiftness is due to the amount of pressure put on the manufacturers, in addition to the large budget given to create it. Despite its age, the ship was under constant upgrading and refurbishing, keeping it up to date as much as possible.

The ship proved to be the saving grace of the human species, allowing enough individuals to escape the cataclysm in 2179 to repopulate in another star system, and its planets.

After the spontaneous disaster on Kepler-844f, the ISS Relinquo has not seen use since.

Switzerland

Switzerland is an expansion, which requires a base game. You can get it with India.

## Components

The Switzerland map and corresponding tickets, as well as a rulebook.

## Differences

* Tunnels
* Like in Nordic Countries, locomotives can only be used for tunnels. They can be used to actually place the route, and to pay off any expenses. Also, when a locomotive is face-up, it counts as one card, instead of two.
* Countries
* Switzerland can only be played with 2-3 players. Also, double routes are opened in 3 player games.
* 40 train cars instead of 45.

## Lore

(Continued from India lore) Also includes Alan R. Moon’s terrific map of Switzerland, specifically designed for 2 and 3 players and made famous by Ticket to Ride Online!
Discover Switzerland’s challenging geography with its verdant valleys and mountain passes, as well as the charm of its neighboring countries.

## Trivia

* Switzerland has been confirmed to be Alan R. Moon's favorite map to date.
* According to the tickets, Switzerland is set in 1905. However, the Austrian symbol uses the Austrian coat of arms, and the German symbol is a black-red-yellow tricolor, both of which were not created until 1919.
Protothesia

Protothesia is a base on Kepler-844g, later known as Panthera, and the first colonized location by Terrans of the Asterithean system. The base was established in 2192. From this location the attempts at colonizing the other planets in the system begun, however the only confirmed successful attempt was Istoria. Although originally intended to be the basis of later colonization of Panthera, an infected member of the base lead to the utter massacre of almost all inhabitants, leaving Lystus as the sole survivor.

Coincidentally during this event an exotic matter, referred plainly by Istorians as "magic" however later given the more scientific name of Anexium, was unleashed upon Istoria, causing the shattering of the supercontinent named Mazitera.
Terraforming of Triton

In 2124, the Terraforming of Triton in order to make the moon habitable for human life begun.

The terraforming of Triton finished in 2135, after only 11 years. Due to Triton's natural geological activity, the terraforming took less time than initially predicted by the company which decided to attempt to terraform the moon.
India

India is an expansion, which requires a base game. It comes with Switzerland.

## Components

An Indian map and corresponding tickets, and a rulebook.

## Differences

* Ferries
* India can only be played with 2 to 4 players. Also, double routes are available only in 4 player games.
* If you complete a ticket making a circle, you get a certain Mandala bonus: for one Mandala you get 5 points, for two, 10, for three, 20, for four, 30, and for five and more you get 40 points.

## Lore

Embark on a tour of Ian Vincent’s India and discover one of the most densely populated and colorful countries of the world. The year is 1911, and the world is changing fast in the British Raj. Will you complete your Grand Tour in time, or lose to more cunning – or simply better connected – opponents?

## Trivia

* This map was made by Ian Vincent, who tied for first in the Ticket to Ride Map Creation contest.
	+ The map was slightly modified from the contest submission before release, adding and removing some double-routes and changing a few colors, such as Khandwa to Manmad and Bezwada to Waltain.
* This map is set in 1911. As such, most of modern Pakistan and Bangladesh are included within India.
IPSS Valkyrie

The IPSS Valkyrie is a spacecraft equipped with the Daedalus Drive.

Built in 2126, the spacecraft was designed in order to function as a safe mode of interplanetary travel for important individuals such as the presidents and prime ministers of the major governments apart of the Stellar Crisis Intervention Corps.
Long-Legs

Long-legs are a species on the planet Amaranthine.

Named such due to their long-legs, and consequentially large strides, Long-Legs are extremely fast and agile creatures, being able to match Canines in speed. Long-Legs typically hide within damp, dark locations such as caves. They use these habitats to their advantage, using their long appendages in order to hide in places otherwise impossible to reach in order to ambush their prey.

Due to their territorial and reclusive nature, Long-Legs rarely come into contact with other fauna on Amaranthine outside of their abodes. They do not appear to discriminate between prey, killing and consuming haphazardly—even to the point cannibalizing own kind who infringe upon their territory.
