Ive found scads of suggested house rules for 1st edition Descent but rather than adopt and test them all Im hoping there is a consensus somewhere. Is there a document of well tested house rules addressing some of the complaints surrounding the 1st edition somewhere? (ie. balance, spawning etc.)
Popular House Rules for 1st Edition
It has been a very long time but the biggest one I used was implementing the Road to Legend reinforcement marker in the regular quests.
It started face up. Once the OL played a spawn card it flipped face down and the OL could not spawn again until flipped back face up. The OL could flip it face up with 15 threat. It was also flipped face up when a new area was revealed.
