Second of two of a small box expansion for Descent. Undead Ravonloft style theme. Probably the most difficult campaign to date. Would have rated it higher but I feel a little robbed on value based on cost of this expansion, especially considering all quests are only 1 encounter each (instead of the standard 2 encounters per quest). One of the better storylines in the D2E series with a climatic (abet short) conclusion.

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.

SUPER weird expansion that is actually incomplete. Mists of Bilehall is Act I and Chains That Rust is Act II. They should've definitely combined the two expansions into one big box like Labyrinth and Nerekhall. Because they didn't do that, this one has a lot less value as an expansion. In this case, there are NO HEROES. CLASSES + Monk + Battlemage + Steelcaster + Watchman These are hybrid classes and I'm still trying to figure out all the implications these things introduce into the game. They're very strong. MONSTERS + Shambling Colossus (actually strong!) + Dispossessed - Marrow Priest + 3 Lieutenant (normally I exclude these but there are 3 and they're some of the best) OTHER + Tiles / Scenarios (only half) + Items / Condition / Relics + OL Class (actually fun Soulbinder!) - Only Act II of everything listed here Mists + Chains together is easily a 10/10 superexpansion like Labyrinth and Nerekhall. In fact I'd say it's almost as necessary "an expansion" as Labyrinth (better than, but less required for a collection). Separately they are mediocre. They do introduce some much-needed Overlord power. It's a shame there are no new heroes when there are plenty in the Terrinoth-verse to choose from.
