She's good, but with 2 characters you don't really need a dedicated support character. I'm also thinking about ordering that broken token organizer, anyone actually have it? Does it help setup time a lot?ĭon't pick the Tinkerer unless you have 3+ people.

I'm also kind of planning on running two 2p campaigns at once, has anyone tried that and had it go horribly wrong? My worry is just that one party will get to do all the cool stuff and the other party will be sad. Any advice about character selection for two players? Yeah checking the rulebook random scenarios are by definition casual play, so while you can get gold/XP from them you can't contribute to the campaign, which includes my copy in yesterday, first play tomorrow night with my girlfriend, I am the hype. One donation per character per scenario is the rule, and I'm not sure you actually can before random/casual ones. Quick edit: actually, wait, with a party of 3 that is sort of impossible, yeah. You'd have to skip buying some items with your starting cash, but it's doable. Maybe random scenarios? That’s the only way I can think it would work.Ĥ times before the first one, 4 times before the second one, and now they're done with that they can donate again.

How did you manage to donate 10 times in two scenarios? I mean just earning the amount of money required would be a problem in the first two scenarios but i think you can only donate once per scenario, so 4x2 = 8. So, thanks to some fantastic luck, we finished the 2nd scenario.īack at Gloomhaven we finish donating 100gp, and get to do that envelope. The Tinkerer follows up with a ink bomb, and HE draws a x2 card, killing the boss on turn 3, before he gets to act. This gets doubled because of my invisibility card, then because I activated my Goggles, I get advantage and draw a x2 card, that’s 16 damage, and to top it off I’ve used my poison dagger. Turn three I attack with a Attack 4 card. The Cragheart follows and catches the Boss and a fair few minions in a dust tornado. We mostly clear the first room in the first turn, so 2nd turn I kick in the door, run in, and promptly become invisible. These are just the opinion of the player who wrote them, but for someone new to a new class, it can help give you some insight into what the class is good at, and what kinds of builds that might be the way you want to go with.Īlso, be aware that they do sell a 'gloomhaven refresh set' that includes all the stickers for you to reapply so you can start from scratch if you want.ĭoing scenario 2 tonight.

Once you purchase this game, you will notice how easily it fits onto your shelf alongside other, larger games:īut it's when you open the box that you wonder how there could be so much game in such a small component package:Īfter a measly 10-minute rulebook reading, you'll be ready to play, but not before you spend a paltry $80 and 6 hours gluing time on a box organizer so the elegance of your tiny collection of game pieces looks even more chic: Contrary to certain love-it-or-hate-it games such as Cosmic Encounter or Monopoly, it is universally beloved and balanced such that everybody from the total beginner to Garry Kasparov can enjoy it equally.
