Charles Dexter Ward and Kingsport - newbee question

By Nuka, in Arkham Horror Second Edition

A big hello from France everyone !

I just bought the game and currently doing the first "campain" (that is playing against each GOO) with 2 other friends that I have converted to the most hidious and restless cult ;-) One of them already removed all the corners in his flat, whispering : "the hounds ... they're coming ... through the corners ...."

So far, if I don't count the solo games (only 2, one against yoggy, close to a win but whiped with the awekening, and one against Azatoth were the world was completely and rapidly destroyed), we have 2 wins and 2 loses in 4 games, so still learning yet :-)

I have one question related to kingsport. If I remember good, Charles Dexter Ward (my favorite long story of Lovecraft) is related to this town. So is there a Dexter Ward in this expansion, and can you visit the dark place where the experiments were conducted and in where some dark creatures are lurking in the novel ?

Cheers,

Yo Nuka (c'est rare de voir des compat's dans le coin, bienvenue à toi)

CDW is one of my HPL's favorite too, and yes, he is available, as an ally, if I remember well. For the house in the encounters, I don't remember that... thing is, with the dilution, and all the 6 expansions, I never ever saw the whole stuff, and I'll keep on discovering new events even in a hundred games :) Ask to a real KH specialist ! There are few around here, thanks to Dam's Campaign (cheers Dam ;) ), but you'll find some ! Bye ! A plus mec.

Arf un bout de forum pour les français :P

Can someone (Hem maybe ?) point me a link to the said dam's campaign ? I didn't know there was such a thing ^^ !

There is no link, it is just a seedy, shadowy rebellion against KH angel.gif.

Salut les frenchies :-) (vous jouez où au fait ? Moi sur Paris)

For what I've seen around the forum, Dam is completely anti-KH as Hem is more into this expansion. But no there is not a campain like the league campain solely using KH I think (for what I've seen while ... DEVOURING alle the threads on the forum gui%C3%B1o.gif)

What does add Charles Dexter as an ally by pure curiosity ?

I believe he is the +1 Speed +1 Lore ally

He also gives +1 to combat bonuses from spells.

OK I get it now :P

Can't wait for Kingsport being released in french ... Maybe next week btw :)
