## Description
Expanding the universe of Batman: Gotham City Chronicles, this expansion introduces two super-iconic new game boards: the fetid sewers and the GCPD headquarters. Prepare to dive into claustrophobic battles in the sewers, with limited lines of sight and a maze of dead ends, where mobility and area control are crucial. An elevated section offers a tactical advantage, but beware of approaching henchmen! The police station, on the other hand, promises action across multiple levels, with wide corridors, strategic cover, and restricted areas ideal for mission objectives, such as protecting evidence or prisoners. Each map is designed to challenge your movement and combat tactics, favoring agile and well-positioned characters. 

In addition to the boards, you receive a booklet with 10 new missions for Versus mode, which can be played on these new scenarios or combined with maps from Season 1 expansions. Want more? The expansion includes brand-new objective tokens and a special double tile for Batman in his Thrashers Suit, adding even more gameplay options. If you enjoy Gotham's dark universe and want more scenarios for your favorite heroes and villains to face off, this expansion is a must-have. Prepare your movement cubes and your aim, because justice (or chaos) awaits you!
