Before we look at this expansion, the first question is what does S.H.I.E.L.D. stand for? Well S.H.I.E.L.D. orginally stood for  Supreme Headquarters, International Espionage and Law enforcement Division but after 1991 It stood for Strategic Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistics Directorate but in the MCU, some cartoons and the TV series it stands for Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division.

This Expansion comes with the super spy who is Nick Fury as well as Maria Hill who is the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D both are very powerful Allies and leaders. Nick Fury Alone is so sneaky it is worth trying out more crafty ways and see if you can undermine the enemy and win without them realising your antics.

In this multi-part scenario you are trying to rescue some Scientists who have been abducted and find the mole within S.H.I.E.L.D. The baddies begin with Black Widow and Belova but lead onto M.O.D.O.K. when you can rescue the scientists Then just as you think you are through and can return home for a rest you have to contend with the Thunderbolts, a team of Anti-Heroes led by Citizen V, whose abililties have a lot of interesting outcomes and are not just your regular minions but hard hitting villians in their own right.

The great thing is this box comes with six different modular sets featuign Thunderbolts you can use in this scenario giving this set excellent replayability. This also has the opening that future products may come with Elite Thunderbolt minions that can also qualify fdor this scenario giving more options. As for the final villian, the mole within the board, well you are just going to have to play the game to find out who that is.

This expansion will stretch your mind and make you think about how you will choose your heroes and how you will use them.Happy Gaming!

Usually when games bring out there two player version it is a more simplistic shorter version of the game. However, in this case it is a more complex version which while still being beautiful has more compexity and is a very clever game.

As well as the single tiles that you use in Azul there are packs of cards with four different tiles on each of them and when you draw one you place it on the board and then choose one from the four placed tiles, you take the choosen one and place it on the correct side of your player board and it is placed by you to gain the most points you can from the tile.

There are 75 acrlylic tiles, 2 player boards, 4 scoring markers, 4 player tokens, 20 bonus chips, 1 score board, 5 factories, 18 dome plates, 1 tower (easy to assemble) and 1 beautiful draw string bag for the acrylic tiles.

This is a great game and the complexity added just makes it that much greater and oh so much more playable as a game. I highly recomend this game if you enjoy a little more umph to your gameing experience.
