Thread: Descent: Journeys in the Dark (Second Edition):: General:: Overlord's dominating, is this common?

We have only played 6 games now but every time the Overlord has won! And most times comfortable victories. This is with different players taking on the role of Overlord too.

We are playing 2 hero games and find that the monsters are many more in number each game and overpowering our hero's throughout, and according to the monster numbers it would appear that 2 hero games are the hardest. Especially the games where the monsters can respawn after dying, next round they can move right back into the heart of the action.

Do people have any tips for playing as hero's? We feel that we have done as much as we can and have fought well each game, but the sheer difficulty of the tasks are the main frustration. It just feels like theres an imbalance with the number of opponents vs heros, and that we are fighting a losing battle from the off.

Bottom line, we feel that with similar skill level players, the Overlord always dominates in the end. Do others feel the same way, and are 2 hero games the hardest?

We are liking the game but the seeming inbalance is souring it for us a bit right now, as we can't see the hero's winning a game. Are the quests just meant to be more of a challenge for the hero's to become victorious than the overlord?
