About this expansion

Dungeon Roll: Henchmen is a 2017 expansion and rules booster for Dungeon Roll that supports 1–4 players.

Not everyone can be a hero. After making it as an adventurer, you may grow tired of mundane tasks and decide that the work is better left to someone else. Henchmen let you hire help to do your dirty work while you continue your adventuring career.

Of course, assistance comes with a cost. When henchmen help with the job, you share the treasure with them. Their service can make the less exciting parts of adventuring easier to delegate, but the rewards must be divided among those who did the work.

There is also the possibility that something untoward may happen on the job. When trouble strikes, clerics have an important role to play. The expansion’s theme embraces both the practical benefit of hiring help and the risks that come with sending others into danger.

  • Hire henchmen to handle mundane tasks.
  • Share treasure in return for their assistance.
  • Turn to clerics when something goes wrong.
  • Add the expansion and rules booster to Dungeon Roll.

Dungeon Roll: Henchmen adds a fresh layer to the adventurer’s life without changing the central premise that not everyone needs to do every task personally. If you are ready to let hired help take on the dirty work—as long as they receive their share—this expansion brings that idea to your dungeon-crawling table.
