I love the way it meshes an economic game with a war/area of control game. I've played many times and even in sessions where I've lossed I've come away grinning. Absolutely terrific game and well deserving of its top 10 spot on boardgamegeek.com.If you enjoy the game of Eclipse as well then you should asbolutely pick this expansion up.It comes with a whole lot of stuff that you can mix and match into your game, which I think is the perfect type of expansion as you can mold your game experience to suit your needs.The expansion comes with four new races (on three player boards) allowing up to three new additional players. It subsequently comes with rules for as many as 9 players and even more rules for allowing those games to speed up (specifically for having two people taking actions at the same time).There 'rare technologies' that are unique and can be mixed into the tech draw. There are additional 'developments' that are essentially technologies drawn at the start of the game (again, just one of each).There are new types of ancient ships to use - dreadnaughts as a replacement for the galactic center and cruisers that defend ancient homeworlds (another addition).There are also additional hexes that contain new planets and some warp tyles that act as wormholes do non adjacent spaces.All of these things can be mixed and matched to suit what your group wants to play. The components are absolutely consistent with the original so no issues there.Overall, a superb expansion. I look forward to the next one! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Best expansion ever? *by S***D on Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2014* Eclipse is easily one of my favorite board games, and a big hit at our weekly game nights. This is a fantastic expansion for the base game. It adds some great new features like tougher ancients and ancient home worlds, as well as new races, unique techs and some new diplomacy features like alliances. It also ups the maximum players from 6 to 9 (That's a BIG game). This may sound like a lot, and it is, but the best feature of the expansion is that is is completely modular. You can play with as many or as few of the new features as you would like and add in only what you would like to use that game. This offers a ton of options and re-playability and allows you to tailor the game to the crowd that is playing. If you enjoy the base game Eclipse than this is simply a must have. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Great product and many more playing option *by L***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2015* I purchased this expansion a year and a half after buying the main game. The main reason I purchased it was because when playing eclipseplasma missiles were highly overpowered and after reading many things about the expansion I found that it helps reduce their power. The expansion comes with six new characters or three boards with one on each side. I have played all of the races and won and lost with each of them so they are on an equal playing field from the normal game. I love the new hexes it comes with including Ancient Hives and ones containing Ancient Cruisers. It makes it more challenging and lasts longer (I love board games so it is a plus for me). The only problem I have with this is that you combine all the pieces into the main game. This makes it harder to just play the normal expansion if you are trying to teach someone. Overall the extension has made me enjoy the game even more and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to add more entertainment and options to this amazing board game. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/199859-eclipse-rise-of-the-ancients-expansion](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/199859-eclipse-rise-of-the-ancients-expansion) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-26*
