We are almost through the campaign, two more quests to go with four heroes. Loving every minute so far. However, I am wanting to be reassured of the balance in this game. From most sessions I have been reading it appears the game is pretty balanced, some quests are clearly geared toward the heroes but I think alot are advantage overlord too.In our game I am not playing the overlord (even though I want too) but my friend is and he has lost every quest except one, which he barely won anyway. But in every quest that he is able to he brings out the shadow dragons. I ask him why and he says "because they are clearly the best monsters in the game, why would I bring out anything else?" then complains when he loses. I try to tell him that many quests have specific win conditions and maybe the dragons aren't always the best option.
However, I haven't had a chance to play as overlord yet so I don't know from experience. What have other people found? Also, I know the game hasn't been out very long so balance questions are difficult. But the next campaign I'm gonna be overlord and I just want to know if anyone has advice for me, or should I just pump out shadow dragons????
Thanks Geeks!
