---|---|---|
CS | You have the power of Volume. As a main player or offensive ally after encounter cards are revealed, you may use this power to choose one revealed attack card with a value lower than 11. That card goes up to 11. | The Vox pride themselves on being among the loudest species in the Cosmos. In Vox society, the louder the better. Leadership is often determined by shouting matches to see who can drown out the others for dominance. Minor members of society general open for more prominent members before such a shouting match, getting the crowd warmed up for the main act to follow. |
Flare[]
Wild: As an ally, you may add 11 to your side's total instead of the number of ships you have in the encounter.
Super: When drawing a new hand, you may draw up to 11 cards.
House rules[]
Because of the limited application of Vox's power (not usable as a defensive ally, and only works on low cards which are unlikely to win an encounter anyway), the Cosmodex suggests these two house rules for Vox:
- Vox's power can be used as a defensive ally in addition to as an offensive ally.
- Vox's power can be used on either an attack card to increase its value to 11 or a reinforcement card to increase its value to +11.
Trivia[]
This alien's image, history and power are references to and parodies of rock music culture. Its power specifically is a reference to the famous "up to eleven" scene from the 1984 film This Is Spinal Tap.
