About Dark Venture: Battle of the Ancients – Beasts and Eggmen

This expansion adds the BEAST and EGGMEN factions to the DARK VENTURE: BATTLE of the ANCIENTS Core game, along with a traveling MERCHANT character. Many of the creatures found in the BEAST faction have STRENGTH or DEFENSE values that fluctuate with each combat encounter, they are unpredictable and often very powerful. However they are limited in number: Beast faction players can have only 4 units on the map at a time. Beast units are brought onto the map after being randomly drawn from the BEAST BAG. The EGGMAN faction soldiers are ‘psychically linked’ to one another and are able to move together in ‘formations’ to travel across the map in groups. An EGGMAN WIZARD can be created to cast impressive spells, providing ranged attacks and upgrades to other Eggman units. The MERCHANT provides magical items, skills and powerful mercenary units to players. Darvin the merchant accepts VICTORY POINTS and TRADED ITEMS as payment for his wares. This expansion also includes AUTO ENEMY decks for the Beast and Eggman factions; the EGG KING’S CASTLE map-boards (First Floor, Second Floor and Turrets); a SCENARIO book that includes an ADVENTURE SCENARIO (a branching, replayable, open-world story); additional ITEM and ACTION cards to add to the game, and much more. —description from the publisher
