Hey, guys. My brother and I recently got back into Descent, 1st edition. We have all the expansions sans Sea of Blood , and are now playing the Advanced Campaign of Road to Legend. Though we're having a blast, the length of each session is a definite drag.That's why I've been ogling the 2nd edition lately. To not let the monsters and heroes of 1st Edition go to waste, I'm even considering to invest in the Conversion kit.
From what I've gathered, game length is significantly reduced, and it's a lot less cluttered than 1st edition.
Would you recommend this to a fan of Road to Legend?
I'm not that big a fan of vanilla Descent. as the dungeon layouts are too symmetrical and far too big to be playable, so we've settled on Road to Legend. The dungeons are tighter,smaller with special rules, giving them flavor which I like.
The problem is that even with smaller dungeons, it can be quite the time sink,which is why we don't play it as much as we'd want to.
Also, if anyone knows of any internet stores that carry the 2nd edition and have acceptable shipping rates to Israel, that's be great.
