Hi!

I want to buy this game, but first of all I need some info.

I had Descent first ed. once, but had to sell it for certain reasons. In order not to do the same mistake, I have to ask a few queestions about 2nd ed. (Moreover, here in Hungary it is around 90 dollars Ugh!)

1. My first issue was with Descent 1 that it took ages to play. (At least 4-5 hours). We do not have that many time, sadly. Maximum 3 hours we got. What is the shortest and longest scenario's length?

2. Other problem was the SPACE. D1 has eaten so many table-space, we often had to place items on our chairs. This led to the problem when we wanted to carry the large coffin to a friend, there was even less place. How much space does 2nd ed. occupy?

3. Balance. My concerns were with D1 that almost everyone choose to be a Tank, because other classes simply s..ked. Not-tank-characters were always beaten to death, which led to player frustration: "Get off me, you!" And besides, the base game was too easy for the Heroes, the expansion were too hard for the Heroes...
Was the balance-issues corrected? (or, at least are they on an acceptable level?)

Thanks for helping me!
