I was just looking back at the last Descent news items. The most recent was in May - reminding you that if you buy a copy of Dungeonquest you can use the heroes when playing Descent.
Prior to that August 2010 announced the Ocean Map Board for Sea of Blood going on sale.
So my prediction is that the next news item will be in February 2012 reminding us that if we buy an additional set of Descent dice we don't have to keep passing all of the dice included with the game from player to player.
Maybe I'm becoming jaded and cynical, but when do you think we will actually get some new Descent news? Or will it suddenly disappear from the website as being a no longer supported product?
