Porthos is Captain Jonathan Archer’s dog and a Keeper in
this second expansion pack for the Star Trek Fluxx game. Mix this expansion in
the deck along with the Archer Expansion Pack cards to reunite them! You should
learn how to speak in Klingon when you play the Kor Keeper card, because you
will be instructed to tell another player that they have no honor (preferably
in Klingon). If you find Spot the cat, who is Porthos’s pal, you can win the
game when the “Star Pets” goal is in play!
For 2-6 players with a 10-40 minute game time.
Publisher's Description of Star Trek Fluxx: Porthos Expansion
Add some Enterprise flavor to your collection of Star Trek Fluxx decks! The second of two Enterprise-themed expansion packs is on the light-hearted side, and is named for Porthos, Captain Archer's dog. Porthos is joined by his crewmate Dr. Phlox, his fellow space pet Spot, a famous Klingon, Kor, and a bottle of Romulan Ale. Also includes a new Action and a New Rule! The Porthos Expansion pack works with any of the 4 standalone Star Trek Fluxxes, but for maximum fun, shuffle these cards together with as many of the Trek Fluxxes as you have! Contains 16 cards.
Are you prepared to boldly go where no Fluxx game has gone before? Based on the ever-changing, endlessly-enjoyable Fluxx series, Star Trek Fluxx takes gameplay to an entirely new quadrant! The basic rules remain the same, but each deck features a full set of Keepers, Creepers, and Goals entirely based on notable episodes or recurring themes from the shows. Further enhancing the chaos and making each version feel different are a handful of themed Actions and Rules unique to the shows. If you're a Trekkie and enjoy the fantastically frenetic Fluxx franchise, it would be "highly illogical" not to try this series out!
