Hostage Negotiator: Abductor Pack 5

About this expansion

Hostage Negotiator: Abductor Pack 5 is a 16-card, single-player expansion released in 2017. It is compatible with both Hostage Negotiator and Hostage Negotiator: Crime Wave.

This pack presents a disturbing crisis centered on a cult that has turned to violence. The cult seeks to push its agenda and attract greater attention, creating a situation that demands careful handling.

What makes this scenario especially striking is the uncertain role of those involved. Many members of the cult are both victims and culprits, blurring the line between the people responsible for the crisis and those caught within it.

The central question is stark: how will you respond when the abductors are also the hostages? That premise gives this expansion a distinctive identity within the Hostage Negotiator series and frames the situation as a particularly challenging negotiation.

• 16 cards featuring a cult-related hostage crisis
• Designed for one player
• Compatible with Hostage Negotiator and Hostage Negotiator: Crime Wave

As an Abductor Pack, this release expands the situations available in the Hostage Negotiator system with a focused new threat and a morally complicated premise. The cult’s violence, its desire for attention, and the overlapping identities of abductors and hostages define the experience presented here.

For players looking to add another distinctive crisis to their collection, Hostage Negotiator: Abductor Pack 5 offers a compact 16-card expansion built around an unusually difficult question: how do you handle a situation when those causing the danger may also be among its victims?
