In my group, we have decided to try to reveal the map of any scenario gradually. We do this by using LOS rules, whenever a hero has LOS to a tile in a part of the map that is not yet on the board, the OL (me) reveals it, along with all figures, search tokens etc. on it. Before that, I keep the non-revealed tiles behind a screen and move monsters on them during my turn, which then pop up on the main board as soon as they enter the tiles already in LOS.Since all our players are new to Descent and no one looks at the scenario book up front, this creates a nice bit of tension and feeling of exploration. Of course, except for the map layout, all other information is shared with the heros before scenario start. However, it is a bit cumbersome and I wonder if this might lead to issues or becomes too complex in later scenarios. Does anyone here have experience with using this kind of approach?
