Lieutenants

By guest313231, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Am I missing something about Lieutenants? Because they sure seem absolutely pathetic at the Silver Campaign? Both the first two Farrows(sp) have been butchered and now the heroes are chasing them down. They can't dish out much damage or take much damage. Basically if the heroes show up, I the best tactic seem to run away and hope that your monsters (and cards) can deal with the heroes.

Well, yes. But if you have some treachery, and some upgraded monsters, then you can hand out a fair amount of damage before running away. In some cases, running away becomes only backup option! If you don't have treachery your Lts shouldn't be anywhere near the hero party.
