With current events I have time to tap into interest from the past. This game looks very interesting. To my understanding Roll Players Adventures is coming out this year and does not require the original release or expansion. As of now I believe purchasing both of these items are on the high side for such a simple game. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked the use of CHA token for buying mercenaries. That's an idea I supported in my playtesting. I agree that the expansion does a lot to complete the experience. I felt thematically the expansion adds character leveling to character creation. And I really love how in solo mode that the "enemy die" can now make you discard the active minion and draw a new one. Strategically, sometimes you're facing a minion you can't beat and the market isn't appealing (including the choice of discarding for gold), so you take the highest die rolled, hoping the enemy dice roll will give you a new minion to fight that you've got a better chance defeating.
Great review James! Thanks - might just have to jump in and get the base and this together.... BTW, what is that boxed set of books on your shelf just below Lotus?

Great overview! I'm on board with the expansion!
Thanks Jimmy!

Tom Cohen that would be the updated Harry Potter set. I am a huge Potter nerd :)
Thanks James! Way too many cool things out there.
Where did you get the frogkin, I have the starter and monsters & minions and did not get that
Great review, though I wish you demonstrated the final boss fight, is it just a flat roll of the dice?
I'm pretty sure EVERYTHING in this game is a roll of the dice.
Does anyone find it thematically bizarre that you are fighting monsters with a character that isn't even rolled? Lol. Great review, as always.
If you have roll player can you add it to monsters & minions?
Sure can!
