Marking the 8th expansion of Uncontained, let me introduce our very first STANDALONE set, WORLDSTAGE!

The Worldstage Expansion aims to introduce the Global Occult Coalition and Marshall, Carter and Dark Ltd as the major powerhouses of the anomalous world, alongside the Foundation. It will also include very popular anomalies such as SCP-055 "[unknown]",  SCP-079 "Old AI" and SCP-087 "The Stairwell".

As a standalone expansion, this means that the Worldstage Set can be played alone without the Core Set (the original deck), but can still be mixed with expansions such as the Black Moon.

Here are some preview cards on this expansion:

SCP-5000

SCP-5000 is one of the first cards designed for this expansion and quite successful in its purpose. I made a post about it here.

SCP-079

Old AI is among the most impactful cards in this set, since it basically gives everyone O5-3 "The Kid" on their turn. It synergizes well with more powerful but expensive cards like SCP-2140 "Retroconverter" and other cards that take up an action as an effect.

SCP-2006

Too Spooky is probably among the strongest and deadliest cards (if not THE deadliest card itself) in the game. At the wrong or right moment, it could end a game in an instant. It's designed to give players with struggling Uncontained zones an edge against players with beefy Contained zones. However, of course, counters exist in this game, such as SCP-990 "The Dream Man".

Anomalous Auction Scenario

This card is based on Marshall, Carter, and Dark Ltd (obviously!). It basically offers a new type of mechanic in the game: an Auction. Unlike the previous scenarios from the original set and expansions, this one is designed to make each game more chaotic and unpredictable and rewards that player that draws it the most (unlike in other scenarios where the player that draws it essentially loses their draw phase by drawing a useless card).

The Special Observer

This character is based on the Global Occult Coalition and works as a spiritual successor to the design of the Security Officer from the Core Set. It's very powerful and thematic, allowing you to save yourself in case of cards like Too Spook  gets  drawn against your favor.

The Crowd

Lastly, this expansion also introduces the largest type of civilian by the amount so far, the Crowd! It aims to make the game heavier on resource management, not only focusing on risk management most of the time.

This expansion also introduces the  [injured] civilians mechanic, in which a lot of anomalies interact with in interesting and often deadly ways.

DOWNLOAD

At the moment, the PDF file for this expansion is currently unavailable, since it is still in playtesting. The first version can still be downloaded, though!

If you want to check out the cards, it's currently only available on our Tabletop Simulator mod.

Final NOTE:

I know this announcement post is basically a YEAR late, but I basically forgot this site existed, so bear with me. xD I was also quite busy on work and life stuff, and it was only recently I have the time to rework and continue this project.
