I'm sure this has been mentioned before, but, once FFG wraps up their Descent expansions, it would be awesome if they released an expansion pack, similar to the Hero and Monster packs, but if it just contained miniatures that replace tokens already in the game. They've done this with the Lieutenants and some of the Allies, but there's more to be done!
Here's what I'd like to see:
- 8 Villagers (4 men, 4 women) (Base Game)
- 1 Reanimate Familiar (Base Game)
- 3 Summoned Stone Familiars (Lair of the Wyrm)
- 1 Wolf Familiar (Labyrinth of Ruin)
- 1 Desmond Ally (Nature's Ire)
- 1 Raven Flock Servant (Manor of Ravens)
- 1 Scourge Servant (Chains That Rust)
- 1 Brightblaze Familiar (Bonds of the Wild)
As a bonus, I think these could be made into miniatures. These are a bit more single use so I'd be less crushed if they skipped these.
- 1 Desmond Ally (Nature's Ire)
- 1 Cardinal (Shadow Rune)
- 1 Tyrus (Heirs of Blood)
These tokens aren't really appropriate for miniatures, unfortunately:
- Shadow Soul Familiar (Shadow of Nerekhall) (Occupies same space as other figures)
- Skye Familiar (Bonds of the Wild) (Occupies same space as other figures)
- Pico Familiar (Bonds of the Wild) (Never placed on the map)
Here are my ideas for some other things they could include:
-
Ornamental miniatures that would be placed outside the board or above existing obstacles:
- Boulders (1 space boulder replacements)
- Green trees
- Brown dead trees
- Stone pillars
- Hero sheets for some of the Allies (E.g., Desmond)
- A quest or two
Did I miss anything? Have any other ideas?
Thanks to any2cards for the list of proxies on the index of useful links page !
