Aww....no new final battle cards with Innsmouth?

By MrBody, in Arkham Horror Second Edition

I was excited when I saw the new epic plot cards, but no new red/green final battle cards =(

I think it'd be great if they added even as little as 5 each but you randomly chose the same amount for each battle. Would prevent a lot of the predictability in each final battle (you know that you ALWAYS want to have 2 stamina/sanity in reserve, etc).

Agreed it would be nice to have more diversity there. You could try it my way - randomly select from red and green shuffled together...come and have a go if you think you're hard enough!

Kevin Wilson had a rule idea where you remove 6 green cards at random and then put one back for each seal on the board. Anything to bolster sealing over final battle is a fine rule in my book.

I use a simple method where the chances of a red coming up increase as rounds go on, but it's not necessarily all green first, then red. I also added a rule similar to Kevin's.

Taking the determinism by process of elimination out of the equation is also something that I appreciate.
