I love the introduction of heroes to this expansion. Being able to build your deck around a particular character is a lot of fun and gives the game a bit more theme. I also like the incentives behind buying cards with spoils on them. In previous expansions, there has rarely been a benefit but more so now. I really enjoyed this expansion.

Neither of the two added mechanics really quite work for me. The Eclipse cards aren't bad, but don't really add anything that interesting, and do add a little more unnecessary complexity. The leaders simply aren't worth the cost in victory points. The lower point leaders may be more powerful than the higher point ones, but they don't come out often enough to be worth the point differential. Will probably be pulling both the Leader cards and the Eclipse cards in future plays.

Asymmetry brings a welcoming refresher to the game. Finally feels like you are building your deck instead of the deck. The increase in payoff for embracing decay allows for new strategies that keep the game interesting.
