Thread: Descent: Journeys in the Dark (Second Edition):: General:: RtL insanely difficult (spoilers)

I just finished the mini campaign.
When I got to the throne room of the final quest I had zero "lives" left (if another hero got KO'd I'd lose).
In the throne room was: Splig, Goblin Archers, and Hybrid Sentinels. The characters that could, fought the sentinels. The other's fought the goblins (just to reduce the number of enemy models on the board).
At the start of the next turn, Queen Ariad showed up. I killed the master Goblin Archer (which removed the two remaining goblin archers).
I somehow survived a turn (I finished off the master hybrid sentinel and did a couple points of damage to Queen Ariad (since she was blocking the way so two of the heroes couldn't even get into the throne room where all the action was. Anyway, after that round, a new goblin archer tribe showed up, and Queen Ariad promptly beat the ever living daylights out of my heroes and I lost.

tl;dr Splig, Goblin Archers, Hybrid Sentinels, and Queen Ariad all at the same time (at the end of the quest after my characters were already bruised and beaten).

Now I'm sure all I HAD to do was defeat Splig himself, but there was too much crap going on and only my healer was even close enough to get at him without spending a whole turn just moving.

(I had a similar experience with one of the rumor quests too (I didn't do the other rumor quest because I didn't realize this was the final quest).

I REALLY want to love Road to Legend but it's just SO frustratingly difficult!
