Hello allI have just played the first quest of Heirs of Blood. First off what a great introduction to the world of descent.
Whenever the X was rolled I felt like it foiled the plans for a turn. Sometimes it was the difference between a knocked out hero or not.
I also love Imperial assault and I think the X on the defence is a better mechanic.
Anyway cutting to the chase I was thinking if a house rule could be introduced.
The X still applies to any ranged attacks.
However any melee combat simply uses the 2 side of the blue dice but subtracting a surge instead of adding one.
Of course this is only one suggestion but it adds a little further strategy into the game.
