About this deal

After we beat the last Oni, the Assassin rushed across the map, and removed an Acidic Tentacle with a critical hit. The Sorceress and the Monk then completed an incredible combo. The turn before the Sorceress had cast a spell turning one of the tentacles into a bomb, so when the Monk through his own bomb and detonated that Tentacle, the chain reaction then removed another two, it was then a simple matter of removing the last 2 to complete the quest and find the survivors.

Each character has unique abilities and stats listed right on the character card. As you progress in a campaign, you can possibly get new useful upgrades in between missions by leveling up, or you could get some nasty permanent injuries or mutations from too much darkstone or botched medical practices.The vast number of components also can cause a logistical nightmare as you search for a specific reference card that explains how a keyword works. The rules are split between the rulebook, hero sheets, enemy sheets, reference cards, event sheets and more. The game comes with 2 booklets: the core rulebook and the adventure book. The adventure booklet you’ll be referring to for character developments and plot points that appear during your adventures into the deep of Brimstone. Both booklets are beautifully done and in full color and have excellent images throughout. Chest from Bakersfield Prime's RPG Chest: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=669443130

The modularity allows it to be easily expanded if you find yourself wanting more and there is a lot of agencies available through the player choices for their characters. It is also an improvement over the previous core sets in that the heroes feel like they have a lot more options in terms of builds and what they can do within combat. James - So, Samurai skirmish combat? I’m in. RPG Elements? Sounds good. Mechanics slightly divorced from each other? I’m not so sure. Alternate Enemy Versions: Devoured Dead ( Dishonored Dead), Parasitic Tentacles ( Acidic Tentacles) Character sheets were adapted from Philippe's Shadows of Brimstone Character Sheet: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1127013492 There is also balancing built into the game where enemies will gain ‘elite’ abilities depending on the party level. Having too many powerful items on-hand may cause the heroes to gain too much corruption which then triggers mutations.

My favorite thing in board games is the shared experience of players. What story can we all create when we come to the table? Shadows of Brimstone’s response: a damn good one. Set in Feudal Japan, the Heroes must brave the Forbidden Fortress; a feudal castle overrun with all manner of Demons, Ghosts, and Monsters inspired by Japanese myth and legend.
