Overall, thrilled to have more critters for Descent, but I'm not thrilled by the secret room rules and some of the new fiddly mechanisms.

First off, it's nice to have options. So to adorn a game that's designed to be expansible is almost a necessity. New heroes - great. New monsters - great. New quest - more than great. But the implementation of secret rooms is done forcibly to implement new stuff in the game. It's almost never given a chance and it's just a tease for heroes to attempt when they are either sure to lose or win. Not to be tried during pressing quests (which almost all are!). Finally, I don't see a reason for the OL to throw in the side-quest in a normal campaign at all. He's pretty well off playing the 9 mandatory quests. By trying the expansion quests he's giving the opportunity to heroes to venture for more $$$ and stronger equipment. There should be a reward for OL introducing the Wyrm campaign. Maybe houserule it.

Additions rated separately (rating is all + out of 10): CLASSES + Geomancer. Cool earth theme. Doesn't get picked much though due to complexity not matching the output. + Champion. Cool horns and buffs theme. Wish it was stronger/more usable. HEROES + Quellen - Reynhart Almost gave both a minus for being the ONLY box expansion in Descent that does not keep the gender ratio even. But the non-box expansions blow that concept up immediately so whatever I guess. MONSTERS + Hybrid Sentinels monster. Cool and usable. - Fire imps. Cool but not impactful monster for Overlord. + Wyrm Queen. So cool I bought the mini. Wish it came in the box. Not used enough in the scenarios. MISC + Tiles / Scenarios. Really cool. Some are meh but most are cool and add new stuff. + Items / Relics / Conditions / Trap rooms - Overlord Punisher class. Overlord always feels trash in every version of Descent. This one is bad for the OL AND super shitty for heroes to experience. So not even a threat but deals psychic damage directly to the player.
