Spacers, you’ve done it! We hit the incredible milestone of $1 million raised for the Enormity campaign! 

This achievement is nothing short of amazing, and it’s all thanks to you! With this milestone, you’ve unlocked some truly incredible Stretch Goals, including the Snatcher, packed with its unique AI cards, stats, and loot!

But we’re not stopping here. With just a few hours left, we’re within reach of even more amazing Stretch Goals!

STRETCH GOAL: $ 1000000: DNA SNATCHER, A NEW BOSS EXPANSION COMPLETELY FREE!

Reaching $1 MILLION is a monumental effort! And an ITU milestone! Thank you for your support! For this occasion we’ve prepared something special, a brand new, completely free BOSS EXPANSION! Players who have backed, received and played ATO can attest that we treat this boss business very seriously! A boss is not a mere additional monster, it’s a ton of AI and BP cards, it’s a sheet with traits and stats, going all the way to level 9, and a slew of lootable and craftable Gear!

The Tortor transfigurans, better known by its nickname, ‘the Snatcher’, belongs to an unknown NHI (Non-human Intelligence) species that has mastered control over its own evolution. A culture of the Hunt has subsequently arisen: a Snatcher sets out into the unsuspecting universe to harvest DNA samples to add to its own. To perfect its form. This may be the reason why the Snatcher fiercely exterminates both Ratcatchers and Splicers – they are competing for the same ‘food source’.

When a Snatcher deems itself full of alien DNA, it may finally return to whatever place it calls home, to share its trophies with the collective. One dreads to think what the Snatchers will become several generations from now.

A Snatcher has breached the Shepherd. It stalks you now and it will not relent. It cannot, its honor demands it.

The Snatcher is quite a unique boss, as it can transform its body into any shape needed to achieve its goals. It can multiply its limbs or grow additional ones, it can also transform any of its appendages into a specialized tool perfect for the current task: a sword, a spear, a whip, even firearms, like bio cannons.

During the boss battle, the Snatcher will try to isolate a lone Spacer and suck them dry of DNA, to instantly add to its own. Yet, maybe the Snatcher’s most devious weapon is its ability to temporarily morph into other things. Once it has harvested its first human, it will be able to take their shape. To blend into the Coventry’s crew. To harvest silently from the shadows.

The DNA Snatcher Boss Expansion introduces a new Boss Intruder,  more than 40 (FORTY!) AI, BP and Trait cards, as well as additional 15 Mini American cards worth of Weapons, Gear and other surprises. It comes with 9 super hard levels of evolution and its own storyline!*

Additionally, the Snatcher expansion introduces a new area of the Shepherd’s natural xeno history museum, the Strand Wing, where its lair is located!

Shootout at the museum!

*Storyline, not full campaign!

STRETCH GOAL: $ 1000000: A NEW CONDUIT! THE COUNTERFLOW!

Along with the Snatcher comes a new Antinomy conduit, the Counterflow!

What is Antinomy? What Is Enormity?

The universe is infinitely vast and unfathomable. There are things you will see, hear or experience that neither you, nor anyone else, will be able to explain or comprehend. Things that you might as well call magic. Some of you may learn to tap into these phenomena, steer their unknowable flow. Become a conduit.

ThisSG introduces a new Conduit into the game, the Counterflow, a seemingly unnatural force that makes life go backwards. Players who touch this Conduit will be able to call on it in their hour of need, when the awaken during Flatlining!

Spacers, the clock is ticking - there are only 7 hours left until the Enormity campaign comes to an end!  But it’s not over yet - Torched is blazing on the horizon with Shadowmen and The Fly close behind, waiting to be unlocked. Let’s give it one final push and make these last hours truly unforgettable!
