My brother and I had the chance to play Fantasy Flight’s Battlestar Galactica board game during Origins 2009. We had a good time with it, and understood why the game had such a following when it was being demonstrated at Gen Con Indy 2008. Further evidence of that popularity is the upcoming release of the Pegasus Expansion for BSG: The Board Game.

Fantasy Flight’s web site posted its first preview of the expansion on Friday. The expansion will include new Cylon Leader characters, Agenda Cards, infiltration, and more. Fantasy Flight claims that the expansion “adds numerous ways for the Cylons to stamp out humanity once and for all” (though after playing the original game, I am not sure they needed any help).
