While members of all Creeds can volunteer for an Expedition, only the Overseer of Resilience can launch one.
To do so, the Overseer must do several things:
Once all of the above has been finalised by the Overseer of Resilience, the Expedition can depart.
One player from each Creed which has contributed Manpower to the Expedition must now leave to the Foreign Theatre.
Carrying capacity on Expeditions is important.
By default, carrying capacity for an expedition is two Resource Cards per one Manpower token. This is the limit of what players can take to, and bring back from, the Foreign Theatre.
This carrying capacity is a combination of both Resource cards taken on the Expeditions (for example, Tools or Weapons which may come in handy down the track) and those found along the way (from scavenging).
Rations do not count toward carrying capacity.
