Hello everyone!

I just noticed that when running the base campaign ( the shadow rune ) you have to play only 9 adventures not all of them . I am thinking if is it possible to make a Longer campaign , playing all the act 1 scenarios then all the act 2 scenarios selected by the winning players !

Is it possible for you or it Will become incredibly unbalanced ?

You can try it, but it would favor the heroes heavily to do so. They'd have a lot more experience points and abilities, and a lot more money for equipment, so they'd all be extremely decked out. The overlord doesn't benefit quite as much from experience points as the heroes do, and you can only have 1 relic per lieutenant, so winning more than that does nothing but prevent the heroes from earning them.

Ok thank you !

Play the campaign twice instead with different heroes. Let the players pick the quests you haven't played yet whenever they have the possibility. Progressively you will be able to cover them all. I have played certain quests 3 times and some none at all, this way I can look forward playing the same campaign again and hope for somebody to pick up these ones we haven't done yet. But if we don't, no big deal. I guess the replayability of this game (which is huge anyway for plenty of other reasons) does suffer a bit if you go through every single quest in one go. You would prefer to keep alive that element of freshness you can feel whever when start a new quest. I don't mean the campaign is garbage once you've played all of the quests in it, every campaign has its unique setup and experience, but you sort of kill a % of the fun if you don't follow the story the way the quest book tells you to. Both my playgroups for instance have only met four out of the six lieutenants in the Shadow Rune campaign and they are genuinely intrigued by the two others they haven't met yet. They see the mini and have huge respect for it, I'm not in their heads but I think they would enjoy going back to the start of the campaign and choose a different path so that they can get to meet these two dudes.

The game is definitely balanced around only having 9 quests. This is why when you add quests from rumor cards, you don't award any XP for those quests.
