Hello Arkham Fans,

here is my question:

The last days we played AH with all the expansions. We know that we have to modify the number of players which is used for such things as the monster limits (outskirts and in Arkham), the maximum number of open gates! For the final battle against the GOO this number will not be modified.

Our question is, do we have to modify the number of monsters which will come out of a currently open gate? e.g. in a game with 6 Players, all exp. in use, only one monster occurs?

There are several mythos cards with effects for 1-4 players or 5-8 players! What about these cards? e.g. a game with 6 players, all exp in use, do we use the effect for 4 players or for 6?

Thanks in advance

Treat the game exactly as if you had four players. One monster from gate opening, four monsters for a gate surge, etc. The modified player numbers are as if you got the extra 2 or whatever for free. They don't count for any of the player number rules.

Thanks for the fast reply! And you are sure that these are the official rules?

In our last games (6 players) we came to the conclusion, that the terror level increases very rarely due to the small number of monsters in Arkham. In a game with all exp. and a GOO wich levels with the terror lever it would be an easy end fight! In our last 4 games (all exp, 6 players, new investigator and new GOOs) we won 2 times very easy. But in all games the terror level only reached 4 or less! What is your experience with the terror level and all of the exp.?
