I really like Descent so there is no real surprise that this comes at 10/10. The Chains that Rust is a very unique campaign, because it can also be played after finishing Mists of Bilehall. I like that aspect of the campaign quite much and also I feel that lieutenants that come with this expansion are more interesting that some of the others.

I do not recommend getting The Chains that Rust or the Mists of Bilehall - they only add tiles and monsters to the grouping and the Campaign for both 'combines' into one two-act campaign (much like the standalone two-act campaigns from the base game, Nerekhall or Labyrinth). At some point there are just..too many monsters, tiles, effects, conditions, tokens to keep up with, and so I don't recommend getting Bilehall or Chains as they add too much to the game with too little return and eventually your entire set up becomes too burdensome. The other smaller expansions at least give you new hero choices/classes without the specific extras in cards solely for those expansion campaigns.

Wow - just wow. Simply put, this expansion is a masterpiece. Just look at the miniatures, c'mon! The overall "undeath" feeling is perfectly conveyed and the new monster models -truly- look terrifying. Their stats seem to be a little situational, but their in-game flow is perfect. However, what really makes this expansion shine over the other ones is its innovation. The new hybrid classes are surprisingly well-balanced, and bring a lot of new combinations for players who want to experiment with new champion-class combos. I totally loved the new Soulbinder deck, and ended up including the Scourge in every single game I've played so far. Having an Overlord's pet around the board really changes -everything- for both sides and it's a groundbreaking innovation. I can't but totally recommend this expansion.
