"League" for introducing new players

one question, is there a list somewhere of what creatures come in which expansion, i guess specifically what creatures are from BGotW?
My favorite place to go is here:
www.arkhamhorrorwiki.com/Monster
But the Black Goat monsters are:
3 Children of the Goat
1 Dark Druid
3 Dark Young
2 Goat Spawn
Ace, thanks...
the wiki is blocked by the firewall where i work, so couldn't check that until i got home and couldn't remember if it has a list or not!
I really like the look of these. Though a quick question. Is each senario played with
everything
except
where stated? What I mean is take Senario 1, is that played with all boards, items, monsters etc, except for the ones mentioned? Sorry for the silly question, but I wanna play them right when I get the chance
Sorry! "Everything" as in, investigators, injury/madness, epic battle, relationship cards, personal stories.
The idea is that you start with only the base game board and then eventually reach the expansions that have boards. Unless a scenario says to use an expansion board, don't use any. This will come as no surprise but each expansion board is seen on its own once (actually Dunwich is used alone twice), and then the last scenario uses all three.

Ah so you kind of went used all your available resources and whittle down from that? Sounds like a good idea to me. Essentially then it is all the expansions minus the boards, minus the item/monster etc reductions mentioned.
Do you use the newer or original gate tokens when introducing people though?
I don't use all Arkham location encounter cards and items from every expansion, for example. Only the base game's and those from the expansions that are in play.
I consider the Lurker gates to be a Lurker component, and only include them in games using the Lurker expansions.

Ok I think I've got ya know. Sorry it took me so long. Still sounds cool though ^^
Hey, Tibs. I'm interested in your Eon files, to translate the scenarios to my languague, spanish. Do you want to share these files?
Greetings from Spain.
Sure thing! Send me an email:
and I'll send you all the stuff when I get back to my home in a couple days.
Just getting into AH, found this post and thought it looked like an excellent way to get introduced!
A couple quick questions:
1. The scenario images seem low resolution and hard to read (i.e. fuzzy text). Am I missing something?
2. Any advice on including (or excluding) the Miskatonic Horror expansion?
Really exciting to get started!
I think some scenario include Miskatonic. There is a pdf with all of the scenario. Pictures are good and Miskatonic sometimes included. Maybe you're not checking the last version.
Sorry all!
Here is the updated file:
Introductory and Expansion Scenarios
It includes updated images (should be good res), rules for adding Miskatonic, and a Miskatonic scenario.
