After getting Labyrinth of Ruin, our group has been moving on through the campaign, with me as overlord. The heores are Spirit speaker Avric and Beastmaster Reynhart.I am pursuing an infector- heavy overlord deck. And am using deck 2.
Avric has tempest and shared pain, and a poisioned blowdart gun.
Reynhart has the card that gives his wolf a brown defense die and costs 1 XP, and he also has shadow hunter. He also has a sunstone.
We have done 4 quests. The heroes have Raythen as an ally and have won 3 quests.
I need serious help. The heroes just steamrolled me in the last act of the Barow of Barris. Rayhten moves incredibly quickly and can usually chip away half the health of any monster in his path. Reynhart walks through and kills any survivors with his 3 die hunting knife, for an almost guarenteed kill. If anyone is about to die, Avric trundles along and heals them.
The last encounter (Barrow of Barris) was the worst. The first half was a miserable, stalemat-ish kind of game, but the second half was horrible, taking only 20 minutes to complete. Merik rolled 7 misses out of 9 tries on his artifact tests, and the heroes easily killed by Ettin in two turns with no major damage for anyone involved. They quickly eliminated the Carrion Drake in the hallway and proceded to start wailing away at Merrik. The first search token they got was the master rune. By this point, only one artifact had been broken and Merik was next to the second one. He broke the second one, but the water slowed his escape. My reavers attempted to move in for intercept but in the open space, with their lack of ability to do more than 2 damage per turn prevented them from protecting squishy Merak from getting killed next turn. Reynhart had walked off half way through and was sstanding at the door incase Merik managed to get there by some freak accident.
Now Raythen has sharp eyes, and can apparently move at speeds close to mach 20 across the board. He hits like a dump truck, and can now scoop up any search tokens in his path. I am seriously concerned with the balance of this expansion. Help?
