Meteorite season is now for Alula, and with it come meteor showers. This festive time attracts plenty of colorful visitors and excited pilgrims. Legends say these meteors change the physics of the continent in strange ways…

The 15 new Meteor cards are just shuffled with Region cards from the base game (and possibly from the first expansion). They don't have an effect during the game, but can dramatically change the scoring phase: All Meteor cards in front of you stay face up for scoring (just like Sanctuaries), as well as all your Region cards which share a last digit with them. They will all be taken into account when scoring each of your Region cards.

Meteor cards also feature new scoring requirements, like acquiring 4 cards of the same biome, or throwing away one of your Sanctuary cards.
