![]() The monsters are all great with changelings, rat swarms, iron guardians and some ynfernal demon models. Of the heroes Rendiel and Orkell the Swift are particularly interesting, with the others good if not overly spectacular. Shadow Of Nerekhall (5 stars) ( set unpainted)Īnother bigger expansion set in a mysterious city with a new campaign plus four heroes and monster types. Overall this box does not have one of the best campaigns really, but does have a strong theme and great models, and represents excellent value and is still a highly recommended addition. This box has two interesting monster groups in the harpy and flesh worms, and two heroes that are very likeable and enjoyable to play, the female loner tracker elf and a prophet dwarf. The Queen Ariad spider boss (an amazing separate lieutenant pack model is available), and a great campaign make it one of the most important all round expansions, and this box is used in a road to legend app campaign.Ī swamp theme with new disease conditions along with a very cool troll boss monster called Bol’Goreth (a great separate lieutenant model is available). ![]() Tiles and cards are very similar in theme to the core set and so fit really well as direct content expansion. The monsters are also great ones with insectoid volucrix reavers, spiders with crab pincers, snake drakes and goblin witchers. Four new heroes are pretty decent additions, especially the outstanding Pathfinder Durik and his wolf. Labyrinth Of Ruin (5 stars) ( set painted)Ī bigger and more costly expansion with a full new campaign and a cool spider boss. There are two co-op campaigns in road to legend that use this set, which have made it into a must have expansion. Overall the fiery hot caverns theme and additional tiles are really nice. ![]() The themed monsters include fire imps and tough sentinel dragonkins, and a Wyrm features as a large dragon boss (a nice lieutenant model is available separately). Both the heroes are great, a worthy warrior champion and high mage geomancer. This has a fire theme, a dragon monster boss and introduces secret rooms and a mini campaign. Lair Of The Wyrm (4.5 stars) ( set painted) It has so many different playable options now. However by collecting expansions and painting it all up, this game can become as much a hobby as a board game. The rules and campaign are well produced and fun to play, and you really cannot fault this box set as it offers enough replayability for most people without ever needing expansions. The many double sided outside / dungeon tiles are the best i have seen for a game of this style. The core set comes with 8 excellent and varied heroes with different upgradeable skills, and 9 amazing key monster groups. The game features many expansions you can add to enhance or change the gameplay with new heroes, monsters, tiles, skills, lieutenants, campaigns and now an app (my additions highlighted green = own, blue = part owned, red = not purchased). I included some quick thoughts and ratings up to 5 stars, and I like themed dungeons so this may influence my views :Ĭore Set (5 stars) ( monsters painted , heroes painted) It was originally designed to pit an overlord dungeon player against a group of heroes but has now been adapted into a co-operative style dungeon crawler as well. Descent 2nd Edition is the definitive all round dungeon style game experience.
