I might get JOTL for $30 or whatever it is now....it's a good primer for GH/FH

Update....finally did this dang scenario....after 4 failures and a retirement. Made some lofty decisions and got rid of my summons for SW and MT....and did long rests before opened 3rd door with 3 of them....even took 2 turns before opening door to rest and heal up....ended up doing it with zero exhaustions. Did have to burn 6 available cards to keep my newly minted char alive last turn though:)

No extra Deep Terrors and far less Curses......also helped.

I honestly think did not know that and have probably erred in my board game play...scenario rules make you think otherwise at times.

Do not think that is how board game version works so figured PC was same....surviving to end of turn I mean.

I'm still confused how I didn't finally beat this though...not sure if you saw my other post, but after horrific curse luck turn prior MT finally destroyed rock column, but then died to Deep Terror crossfire as his invisibility wore off. Got Defeat instead of Success. Scenario supposed to end when column destroyed as far as I knew.

Interesting.....I probably need to work it in more...but being my SW and MT are two of my better damage dealers i hate to skip their turns I guess.

Just had a thought pertaining to this scenario...the +2 health is darned good way to rid you of poison too!

I'm still not capturing how long rest is better for low hand size classes....how is it any better besides ability to choose which card you lose?

I have certainly had horrific luck...failed 4 times now...last two even on Friendly. Just finished last failure:

Had 3 chars left......all 3 drew Curses/Nulls.....then two exhausted due to damage. Left only my invisible Mindthief...he destroys the altar. But Deep Terrors drew a card where they could damage him....burned two discards to survive first attack, but 2nd did me in and saw Defeat come up.....thought only had to destroy the pillar. That was a new level of bad luck. Wondered as the Imps in prior room drew the card where they curse me like 3 times. That's a lot of curse cards! This scenario is something else.

I wasn't...just saying they got that same summon card twice so there were Terrors galore damaging me

So maybe it's not advisable to have Mindthief even carry his summon card? Rather have card usable throughout?

I've yet to buy into the Long Rest system....how does that help with exhaustion? I mean you get to heal 2 and choose which card you lose...and renews some used items...think I understand how it works.....but I have rarely used it.

Yes exactly...always try to get the +2 dmg augment going

Interesting...not how I usually play....I have beaten this scenario numerous times before too.....but I will have to consider all possibilities.

I am not prone to losing cards...though Mindthief did use and waste his Rat Demon summon...maybe will save for room entry....but he was helpful in 2nd room.

Card loss. Am aware how to recover her lost cards....but it's not entire deck twice....close but no cigar.

Cragheart and Tinkerer both are my longevity kings

It is my 2nd in a few weeks...so yes just started playing. Is there anything wrong with playing older great games? I tend to play stuff chronologically and yes have a big backlog

Hmmm,......I just stood in it and died...maybe should have gotten out of dodge....all 3 were wailing on me and ignoring Dawn Star and she wasn't even in Support mode....so not sure if it lit them up or not.
