One of the best elements of the expansion is the way in which the sympathizer card has changed. You get to chuck the old card out the window. There are rules for cylons to infiltrate the fleet now and for cylon leaders to start the game off on the other side. The New Caprica objective is a tough objective to complete, but it feels great as the humans when you succeed. There is a also a new skill deck called Treachery which is almost always negative for the humans and for skill checks.
Replay Value: This expansion increases the replay value of the original game incredibly. There is lots of components to experiment with in various combinations. Components: The components are all of the usual quality from Fantasy Flight Games.
Plastic 3-D Base Stars! Those things are much more intimidating, better to look at, and easier to pick up off of the board when you narrowly escape or blow one of those suckers out of the sky. Easy to Learn: The rules for this expansion are as complicated as the original game, but add more moving parts and stages to the game.
The first time that you try to play with New Caprica instead of Kobol, people will be confused, there is no doubt about that. It might be wise to add in all the other components of the expansion first before introducing the New Caprica Objective. If you want a more confrontational game with less intrigue, you could always play 3 players with a Cylon leader. Conclusion: The Pegasus expansion definitely adds some keepers to the game.
In fact, I had some friends that said they would rather just play with the original. The exception for everyone though, was the new characters. Everyone enjoyed them, except for Duala. She is also less powerful once you add the Exodus Expansion but that is for another review. If you are a collector, you should definitely pick this up.
If you play BSG a lot, you should pick this up. If you only play a couple times a year or less, this may not be for you. Or are they? You may now play as a Cylon Leader character. That player is given a hidden agenda card, and that card might be beneficial for humans or not. Depending on the number of player, the chances of getting a pro-human card varies. So you now have a Cylon amongst you, and you all know who it is. Asked 9 years, 2 months ago. Active 9 years, 2 months ago.

The whole first half of the game is "gaming the system" to set this up. Not fun. While I agree with your answer I'm not sure what you mean by a "player whose loyalty is unquestioned". A Sympathizer that was already a unrevealed cylon is still a unreaveled cylon even if sent to the brig by the sympathizer card.
