Hey folks!
I just got a steal of a deal on a large collection of Descent 2nd Ed that had a little bit of everything, and I had a few questions...
1) I plan to play solo with the app, but I've heard there is also another fan-made web-based app? Are there more than just those two?
2) Using the apps, if I am missing things like some of the Hero and Monster packs can I just say "yes I have them" and be able to play through their content or are both of those apps tied to you having physical copies of everything? Ditto the Lieutenants...
3) Is it worth it to pursue the Lieutenant packs? I am missing only 2 of them (Ardus Ix'Erebus and Zarihell), is it worth hunting them down?
4) For the boxed expansions, the only one I didn't get was The Chains That Rust - is this one worth getting? The reason I ask is that so far the cheapest copy I've found was over $400 online!
5) The one thing I am missing the most of are the Hero and Monster Packs. Based on the fact that they include actual quests, they seem very desirable to find. I only have 3 out of the 9 that were released (Oath of the Outcast, Crown of Destiny and Crusade of the Forgotten). Do any of you have go-to places online you buy things like this or is it only eBay or Noble Knight?
6) For the co-op expansions, are these worth getting if I am going to use the app to play? Are they baked into any of the apps as "modes of play" given that you had to download the full rules for each online?
I have a full collection of Runebound 2nd ed and I was thinking of brewing up a campaign game that would see you using the Runebound maps as your overland/hexcrawl maps and having Descent be used for dungeons/adventure locations,. Not sure if anyone has made something like that yet but I love the idea of having an overland map as part of this. I was able to find a copy of the 1st ed Descent Road to Legend set so this may give some tips on ways to achieve my little idea here I feel!
Anyways, thanks in advance!
