  Short resting with a vampire 6 feet away is a ballsy move

  Loved watching this. Played wrath of Ashardlon couple daya ago, solo 1st quest and got over killed. So difficult with unlucky roles and traps left me facing four monsters and two traps. Watched 3 other you tube play throughs and been honest, yours is easily the best. Not because you cheese outran the lord vampire, but because of your running explanation... Perfect!<br>Thank you.

  This was the first solo game I ever played. But I gotta say there is so much more they could do to improve it. (Dungeon of the Mad Mage has some improvements). The annoying thing about Ravenloft is EVERY tile has a monster on it. The Encounter mechanic when you don’t explore gets very frustrating &amp; overwhelming. You just don’t have space to breathe or feel the adventure. <br><br>I’ve made some homebrew tweaks to this game. Made a new deck of cards for this game called “Quests” which is a deck of side quests. I replaced some of the bone piles on tiles with a quest icon. Quest Cards contain things like: <br>- kidnapped villagers you need to lead to the exit for a treasure card + experience or have them fight along side you. <br>- A map that shows the location of a new weapon (where the player would place a tile furthest from the Hero with a token on it representing the weapon). Things like that. I removed the encounter without exploring feature UNLESS there are no monsters in play. <br><br>Still a great game with some good simple mechanics. Just had some things that were frustrating about it.

  I&apos;ve never seen Ravenloft be so kind to someone before! Great play through. I love the DDAS series and have them all. They&apos;re all about positional and threat management against immense pressure (constant spawns) all while using limited resources (your skills), with a sprinkling of dice rolling, wrapped in a D&amp;D flavour. People that go in expecting D&amp;D does Descent are the ones that are disappointed by them. Personally, I&apos;d take a game of DDAS over anything else almost every time. I can&apos;t wait to get my grubby hands on the new Saltmarsh one!
