A wise choice. :) There is no way on Yuggoth Im going to be convinced that good use of what you have makes up for size :)

Dunwich is a worse Innsmouth, while Kingsport board is always threatening and different from any other expansion boards. And sometimes it's funny stabbing a dead expansions (for some extra trophies)

Because Dunwich is fun, and even if it's not super-active, you can still get 5 free clues (and possibly some new allies!). And Harney Jones' shack is an adorable idea. When I read the encounter where he dies I thought it was sad. But really neat!

Sorry KiY, time to let the big boys shine. Oh, and we all know why I like Innsmouth. So...it's not that I dislike Kingsport...it's just next on the list in my mind...

(edit: woah! Ninja'ed! Ask and ye shall receive Solan!)

(reorganized by order of elimination)

Dunwich is still prone to unpredictable dilution.
Kingsport never is.
I don't want to hurt Innsmouth. Won't take long to call it the winner anyway.

hmm, tough choice, but today i feel like this:

Dunwich Horror - 8 (hurt)
Kingsport Horror - 7 (heal)
Innsmouth Horror - 15 (hurt)

The King in Yellow - 0
Curse of the Dark Pharoah - 0
The Lurker at the Threshold - 0
Black Goat of the Woods - 0

because Kingsport is still unexplored here, with some locations not being reached too often.

Hurt Dunwich because it's out of print and I want it!

Hurt Innsmouth because I had it on order with a huge discount and then then supplier cancelled the order because they were out of stock....

I don't own any of the expansions that are still alive so I am only able to hurt.

Because Innsmouth, you brought us the Roland Banks and Tommy Muldoon combo of "I'm in charge here!" "...not anymore you're not..."

Oh, and Krawhitham, your math is terrible!

Nifty Sheldon Gang Memberships are as stupidly rare as Cult Memberships. (Actually, even MORE rare.)
Moon Beasts, Leng Spiders, and Crawling Ones.
Darrell was probably my all-time favorite, and his Personal Story RUINED THAT. For what reason, I have NO IDEA.

morning :)

Conditions are just nigh impossible to find AND fulfill

Kingsport monsters are some of the best!

Innsmouth is great, but deep one monsters are a slight disappointment

Kingsport board is simply above any others. The rift mechanic is the most original mechanic in the whole AH. Even if others big box expansions are great, Kingsport board is *always* in play for my Arkham games

There, that's better. I couldn't bear to hurt Innsmouth Horror, thoughgui%C3%B1o.gif.

...unless, somehow, the fact that we can't agree between Dunwich and Kingsport takes out Innsmouth first.

It always bugs me that I have to explain why it's pointless to prepare for a Horror Check against a Wraith.
I love the flavor text of Hypnos' Dream Cards.
The irritation of the Innsmouth Shuffle (monsters moving black, then white, never leaving town).

I hate to hurt Innsmouth, but Dunwich is better than Kingsport. I hope Innsmouth wins, but I also hope that Dunwich beats out Kingsport.

Eeengh...it's like some horrible game of chicken. I'm trusting you guys to not deal a finishing blow to Innsmouth here...

For Pete's sake, how did it come to this?!?! I never thought Kingsport could serve as such close competition for Dunwich and Innsmouth!
