About this expansion
Descent: Journeys in the Dark (Second Edition) – Guardians of Deephall is a 2–5 player adventure game with an approximately 180-minute play time, featuring four heroes, three monster groups, and two new quests.
Deephall was once a thriving and peaceful mountain city. Now, relentless invasions by undead hordes and dark priests have exhausted its guards and weakened the people’s resolve. Only four heroes remain between the stronghold and extinction.
This expansion brings figures previously available in the first edition into the second edition through reimagined figure sculpts and artwork. The heroes include the orc warrior Mordrog, who fights alongside Lord Hawthorne; Sahla, a gifted Healer who channels the strength of other heroes; and Silhouette, a deadly assassin who relies on stealth and cunning.
- Four heroes: Mordrog, Lord Hawthorne, Sahla, and Silhouette
- Three monster groups threatening the city and its defenders
- Two new quests set around Deephall’s desperate struggle
In Guardians of Deephall, the heroes must defend the city walls against a seemingly endless assault of undead and dark priests. The battle tests whether Deephall can withstand the pressure long enough to survive.
In The Curse of Iona, the party travels into the icy lair of a dragon sorceress. There, they must reclaim a pendant that may offer Deephall its only salvation.
With its threatened mountain stronghold, distinctive hero figures, and linked quests, Guardians of Deephall adds a focused battle for survival to the world of Descent: Journeys in the Dark (Second Edition).
