Brood Exchange

Overview

The Brood Exchange is the Sovereignty's answer to every problem: more. More bodies, more ships, more pressure. They don't build elegant decks. They flood the board with cheap, disposable units that overwhelm through sheer volume.

Where other factions play chess, the Brood plays a numbers game. Each individual card is weak, but together they create cascading combos that scale exponentially. Kill one, three more take its place.

Playstyle

• Flood your hand and board with low-cost, high-synergy cards
• Cards that generate tokens, copies, or spawn additional units when played
• Stations that buff all friendly units, making the swarm deadlier as it grows
• Explosive combo potential when critical mass is reached

Lore

The Brood Exchange is the Sovereignty's oldest institution -- a vast biological network where genetic material is traded, combined, and redistributed across hive clusters. For the Chitin, reproduction isn't just biology; it's economics, diplomacy, and warfare rolled into one.

Each brood cluster specializes in producing specific bioforms, and the Exchange ensures that every hive has access to the full spectrum of the Sovereignty's genetic catalog. In war, this translates to an endless tide of purpose-bred organisms, each wave adapted to counter whatever the enemy fielded last.
