The Bol’Goreth Lieutenant Pack features a detailed plastic figure that places its deadly operative, the fearsome troll of The Trollfens, on equal footing with Terrinoth’s champions.
You must be logged in to post a review.
A hulking figure, tainted with evil, is emerging from the murky depths of the Valdari Swamp, spreading pestilence and plague wherever he steps. Bol’Goreth, who originally appeared as a new lieutenant for the Overlord to control in the Trollfens expansion, now appears in this standalone expansion — Descent: Journeys in the Dark (Second Edition) – Bol’Goreth Lieutenant Pack — to allow him to be used without having to play the Trollfens campaign.
In addition to including a sculpted plastic figure that can replace the existing lieutenant token, this Lieutenant Pack introduces the "Raging Infection" Plot deck of specialized cards, which can be triggered during encounters by using deadly new threat tokens.

DESCENT: JOURNEYS IN THE DARK (SECOND EDITION) BOL'GORETH LIEUTENANT PACK I hate using a token for the lieutenant when everything else is a nice miniature. Excellent model!

Bol'goreth is beautiful. In truth, I think it is among the best models in the entire Descent collection, if not THE best one. But that's all about this pack. The new Bol'goreth stats, although they mix up somewhat well with the new deck, are surprisingly weak. Instead of the brutish, highly destructive troll that you were used to playing in the Trollfens, as an Agent Bol'goreth is just a big fat, stinky mass of virulent diseases - which is very anticlimactic to me. I mean, this is a towering giant troll, the new stats seem to be more adequate to Verminous rather than him. Also, the Agent's deck is simply put, awful. Some of its cards are so useless, they're not even worth giving the heroes a single fortune token. Buy it only if you like the miniature, otherwise, it's better to skip it.

Replacing the cardboard token with a proper figure makes this a winner already. But it also adds new rules that lets you slip the lieutenant into regular scenarios (albeit as a weaker agent). Plus, new cards and mechanics to flesh out lieutenants a bit more helps to make this a great addition to the game.
