Get ready to dive into the dark and brutal world of Conan with the Kushite Witch Hunters expansion! If you enjoy the vibe of Monolith's 'Conan' and want to add more spice to your sessions, this is for you. This expansion brings four new incredible miniatures, each with its unit tile, injecting extra challenge for the heroes. Meet Shubba, the sorcerer capable of casting devastating spells, who has a concentration ability that shields him from hero interference. He's not alone: Shafiah and Ghayoor, agile and loyal warriors, rely on 'Precision Strike' to ignore part of the heroes' armor with their accurate attacks. Rounding out the team is Afari, the deadliest warrior, who not only boasts solid defense and brutal offense but also the ability to counter-attack immediately when attacked in melee, potentially doing so multiple times per turn! It's the kind of challenge that makes you break a sweat and cheer with excitement. This expansion, born on Kickstarter as an exclusive add-on, introduces new tactics and threats, raising the difficulty level and enhancing the game's immersive experience. Prepare your dice and your strategy, because the Kushite Witch Hunters are not here to play!
