Descent: The Altar of Despair*

The second expansion introduces new monsters, heroes, traits, and abilities. Long ago, foolish men worshipped a malevolent power lurking beyond the light, and now they seek to awaken their dark master. You must arm yourself to defend the world against those who wish to enslave it forever.

Face deadly, crushing walls, unspeakable curses, and shadowy assassins before you reach the corrupted temples of Zorek. Fortunately, help may come from unexpected places.

This expansion includes over two dozen new plastic miniatures, featuring six new heroes and five new types of monsters. Heroes gain powerful new abilities and treasures to discover, while the Overlord employs a variety of deadly new tricks and tactics, including dark glyphs and relics.
