Pandemic - State of Emergency (Exp) (English)

Your job of curing deadly diseases is getting harder. State of Emergency, the 3rd expansion to the popular cooperative game Pandemic, introduces 3 modules that provide unique ways to play and give you more control over the game's difficulty.

Play as one of the 5 new roles while tackling the Hinterlands Challenge and investigating disease strains that jump from animals to humans. Travel to 4 different locations on the 2 new game boards while tracking diseases to their source. If you don't act quickly, they will rapidly spread to nearby cities and become even harder to manage. The Superbug Challenge raises the stakes further by introducing a 5th disease that cannot be treated. Instead, you must work together to produce vaccine doses and eradicate the disease before it's too late.

New challenges and tools
With State of Emergency, you can fine-tune the difficulty even more. Take more control over the diseases, or make things even more unpredictable. If the diseases overwhelm you too often, you can use quarantine markers to manage how quickly they spread. Use an action to impose a quarantine on a city to prevent the next two attempts to place disease cubes or outbreaks.

If, on the other hand, you want a greater challenge, the Emergency Event Challenge is just for you. It adds extra Emergency Event cards to the deck that have nasty, unpredictable effects, such as limiting your movements or reducing your hand size. Only the most experienced players can handle this challenge!
