Thunderstone Advance: Caverns of Bane

About this expansion

Thunderstone Advance: Caverns of Bane is a dungeon adventure for 1–5 players that plays in about 45 minutes. Released in 2012, it follows Thunderstone Advance: Towers of Ruin and takes the action underground.

The first three Thunderstone Bearers have been defeated. In the aftermath, adventurers discover clues leading to Caligin, an abandoned Dwarven kingdom beneath the fortress at Cheah Dell.

Caverns of Bane introduces new dangers and allies to the growing Thunderstone Advance game. The underground brings vicious burrowing worms, horrifying bat monsters, and regenerating subterranean trolls, alongside six new monster groups in total.

• Six new monster groups, including worms, bats, and regenerating trolls
• Monsters that carry treasure and use it against the adventurers
• Treasure claimed from defeated monsters and played from the hand in a new way
• Three new Thunderstone Bearers for an extra challenge
• Seven new heroes and 14 new village cards

The treasure system adds a new dimension to encounters: monsters can turn their rewards against you, but defeating them lets you claim those rewards for your own use. This creates a distinctive exchange between the threats faced in the dungeon and the resources gained from overcoming them.

With new heroes, village cards, enemies, and Thunderstone Bearers, Thunderstone Advance: Caverns of Bane expands the adventure while continuing the story beneath Cheah Dell. It offers a focused subterranean setting filled with dangerous creatures, valuable treasure, and fresh challenges for Thunderstone Advance players.
