Did anyone noticed, that this expansion will be (again) featuring gems from 3rd Edition?

From the story on FFG news right?

They said something about gems..

> Did anyone notice.. ;>

Actually - how come? Gems? I have ne'er played the 3rd ed. :( Only first <with a set of expansions from 2nd + bunch of home rules and the full second> so forgive me my asking questions 'bout such obvious things :D

There are 3 gems in the mountains from Third edition

A Emerald (3 gold worth), a Ruby (4 gold worth), and a Diamond ( 5 gold worth)

You will be rich in no time...

FFG, please include real copies of 'Danse Macabre' and 'Crown of Command' alternate endings in this, as well as some new alternate ending cards!

Kthx! happy.gif

I hope also for these alternate endings, but i think that the real copies will not be included.. preocupado.gif

Not for this expansion I think either. But maybe the next small expansion (I hope).

Woooh, that's pretty cool ! I'm glad, me likes big exps.

Question : is there some kind of Darkness Lord equivalent at the top of that mountain ? or is is an "empty" board, that is, just a dungeon, with no baddie ?

WayHey! My birthday coming up soon too.....

Characters I see on the cover are:

Highlander

Valkyre

Pirate

Fairy

the other two I am not so sure:

an elf of sorts, Dark Elf ?

what looks like a completely new female character.

The Eagle King will be at the center pf the mountain but what will defeating him gain you ?

I never had 3rd edition so don't know what the deal was with the expansion boards then. I hope it is not another route to the CoC

The other point is how will you access it.

My guess is that it will be from the Crags - the Harpy being shown a coincidence ? I think not...

That would also point us towards the next one..... accessed through the Forest......

What he said. I would add only, that they are not changed automatically, in 3rd Edition You must deliver them to the City.

I wonder where people see the image from the Highlands and the figures on bgg...

I see nothing there.. ( can someone post the link here please? happy.gif

Follow this white rabbit, and You will find a Big Bird: 209.85.62.24/303/70/0/p147498/mountain_Bird.jpg from 3rd Edition.

EDIT: Hi Velhart gran_risa.gif

Hi. Which images?

EDIT: Go to the BGG main page, and look at the AD on the right side.

Probably right on the "Other path to CoC" bit, but I'm ok with that. I do wonder if it'll be another place to power level your characters, like Dungeon?

I hope that it has more events and nasty cards than the Dungeon expansion.

The Dungeon is already crawling full of enemies

Thanks Nemo gran_risa.gif

If i look to the board, it will have the same route as the dungeon??

Just in case people haven't seen it -

As far as I can see, it seems that these miniatures are better detailed than previous miniatures happy.gif Well most of the old ones look good but some of them lack in details.

I can't wait for this expansion... And it is also soon my birthday - gues what I wish for!

The Eagle King is the end boss for this region board.

From the picture of the box, it seems that they completely change the Eagle King.

It's a large bird now gran_risa.gif
