New features:

- Legendary Leaders.
Cost Victory Points to purchase.
These provide +1 to resourse output of CAPITAL/COLONY and STATION in the sector.
Also these provide +1 to all results of all rolls for TORPEDO, REGULAR, BOMBARDMENT and DAMAGE RESISTANCE rolls made by CAPITAL/COLONY, STATION, ALL SHIPS and GROUND FORCES in a sector.


Changes:

- Neutron Star was removed from Deep Space Objects. Instead there is now a pre-placed GALAXY CORE that acts the same way, but is always placed in the center of the map.

- a number of economy technologies got their costs reduced to boost early expansion.

- colonization cost was reduced from 12 food (15 mats for energons) to 9 food (12 mats for energons).

- ship, techtree cards and rulebook were changed to reflect the mentioned changes.

Updated the game:

- remade all ACTION, NEWS and EXPLORATION cards (better wording, clear conditions, improved effects and etc).

- updated SPECIAL PROJECTS to match GENERAL TECHNOLOGIES cost increase step of 3 science, added new cards, adjusted existing

- added two double sided reference cards for GAME ROUND ORDER, VICTORY POINTS, HOSTILE ENCOUNTERS and SYSTEM / PLANET / SPACE OBJECT types as these being the most commonly used parts of the rulebook

- renamed neutral colonies into independent colonies, this was causing some confusion

- colony abandoning and changing colony type happens BEFORE accounting and they don't produce resources or build ships

- colonizing is not allowed if there are enemy ships in the sector

- added rules for blocaded colonies

- fixed some typos

Rolling out an update soon to fix the player zone cards. Some contain shifted texts.

Sorry for that.
