Introduction

Lieutenant packs expand Descent: Journeys in the Dark Second Edition

by providing unique plastic figures that can be used to replace lieutenant

tokens in quests. In addition, these packs introduce a new layer of strategy

and progression for overlord players with the introduction of Plot

and Agent cards.

Plot Cards

After hero players choose their classes at the start of a campaign, the

overlord may choose one Plot deck. He will use his chosen deck for the

duration of the campaign. After the overlord chooses his Plot deck, he takes

the basic card (the Plot card with no purchase cost) and places it faceup

in his play area. Then, he takes all remaining Plot cards that have the same

deck name and places them facedown in his play area. He may look at his

facedown Plot cards at any time.

Plot cards are upgrades the overlord player may purchase throughout the

course of a campaign. They provide the overlord with special abilities that

are available to him when the card is faceup in his play area. Plot cards

are different from Overlord cards; the overlord does not add them to his

Overlord deck, and he purchases them in a different way.

Important: The overlord player can only use Plot and Agent cards when

playing a campaign.

Purchasing and Triggering

Plot Cards

Each Plot card has a purchase cost that indicates the number of threat

tokens the overlord must spend to purchase the card. During the Spend

Experience Points step of each Campaign phase, the overlord player may

purchase any of his facedown Plot cards by spending threat tokens equal

to the Plot card’s

purchasecost (see “Plot Card Anatomy”). He places

purchased Plot cards faceup in his play area and can use them in all future

quests during the campaign.

The overlord can trigger abilities on a faceup Plot card as specified on

the card. Each time he triggers a Plot card ability that requires him to

“exhaust this card” or “use this card”, he must spend a number of threat

tokens equal to the Plot card’s

triggercost(see “Plot Card Anatomy”).

Threat and Fortune

Threat and fortune are represented by different sides

of the same token. The red side of the token represents

threat, and the white side represents fortune. During

setup, place these tokens in a supply within easy reach of

all players.

The overlord player may spend threat tokens he has gained

(see “Gaining Threat Tokens”) to purchase or trigger

abilities described on Plot cards. A hero may spend fortune

tokens to receive certain benefits (see “Spending Fortune

Tokens”).

GAINING THREAT TOKENS

Each time a hero is defeated during an encounter, instead of drawing one

Overlord card, the overlord may choose to gain one threat token. The

overlord can only gain threat tokens in this way once per hero per quest.

If he chooses to gain a threat token, the overlord takes one hero token

belonging to the hero and places it near his Plot deck as a reminder that

he has gained a threat token for defeating that hero. In addition, there are

a number of other ways in which the overlord may gain threat tokens:

• At the end of each quest, the overlord receives one threat token. If the

overlord wins the quest, he receives one additional threat token.

• During the Spend Experience Points step of any Campaign phase, the

overlord may spend any number of his experience points to gain three

threat tokens for each experience point he spends.

• Each time the overlord plays a Rumor card featuring a quest, he gains

one threat token. Rumor cards and applicable rules are included in

some Descent: Journeys in the Dark Second Edition expansions.

Each time the overlord gains one threat token, he takes one token from the

threat and fortune supply and places it in his play area with the threat side

faceup. Each threat token the overlord gains during a campaign remains in

his play area until he spends it. Between quests, the overlord player records

the amount of unspent threat tokens in the Campaign log. He may spend

this threat at a future point during the campaign.
