Like the first four games in the series, Red Dragon Inn 5: The Character Trove can be used on its own, or combined with any or all of the earlier Red Dragon Inn games.  This version of the game is packaged in an oversized box, designed to hold the cards from all the previous Red Dragon Inn sets published to date, with cardboard deck dividers and foam blocks to hold the cards in place.

This set features four new characters that can be added to the “party” in the Inn:  Sera the Fleetfooted, Lizwick the Collector, Joran the Trickster, and Zakhan the Drunken Master.  Each character has its own 40 card deck.  In addition, Red Dragon Inn 5 includes Lizwick’s item deck, a 30 card Drink deck, new player mats for all characters published up to now (29 total), Fortitude markers, Alcohol Content markers, Zakham’s Drunken Chi token, foam blocks, 2 drawstring bags, cardboard deck dividers, and rules for playing the game.  MSRP is $59.95.

The three The Red Dragon Inn: Allies packs allow players to add new characters to any of the Red Dragon Inn games.  The three packs scheduled to release this November include Wrench - a kobold artificer, Zariah the Summoner, and Halden the Unhinged.  Each Allies expansion includes all of the cards and tokens needed to add the character to the game:  a player mat, 12 gold coin tokens, Alcohol Marker, Fortitude Marker, and rules.  Each character also includes special cards or tokens unique to that character.

MSRP is $14.95 for each pack.
