Hi,
My overlord and I have a continuing discussion about whether or not to combine all expansions. Specifically the travel deck, the shop deck and the overlord class cards.
The overlord wants to combine everything. So far I have not done it, and since I own the game and host the sessions my word has been law.
My reasons for not wanting to combine the expansions: I want each expansion to be something special, with items that make sense for the expansion and abilities of both overlord and heroes that are designed around the theme of the expansion.
To take an example from imperial assault: I would prefer not to see the cold weather gear from the Return to Hoth expansion during missions on the desert planet of Tatooine from the Twin Shadows expansion.
In general, I fear that everything will end up being the same - "einheitsbrei" as they say in German (roughly translates as "uniform gruel").
The other side of the argument is: by using items from other expansions, more variety will occur during a campaign. Additionally, I feel sort of ok mixing imperial assault items (except for the cold weather gear) and IA is basically Descent with a Star Wars skin.
What finally made me write this entry to ask the community is the fact that the upcoming Road To Legend app will mix content from every expansion you own.
So what do you think? What is your experience?
