The new expansion will include four heroes:  Jonas the Kind, Grey Ker, Krutzbeck, and Zyla.  Ten new monster models are also included.  Most of the monsters were previously part of the first edition of the game, but there will be an all-new monster group, the crow hags, which lurk around the edges of battlefields using dark magic to weaken the heroes.  Other monsters will be demon lords and skeleton archers.  All of the game cards and tokens required to use the new monsters and heroes are also included.

The two new quests: Sindaea’s Secret and Treaty of Champions, center on the reappearance of an ancient demon in the haunted lands of the south.

As an expansion, Treaty of Champions requires the base Descent game to play.  MSRP is $34.95. 

The sixth Hero and Monster Collection, called Bonds of the Wild, released in July (see “New ‘Descent’ Expansion”).
