Do I need the base game Kingdom Death: Monster to play with this expansion?
Yes, absolutely! The Death Armor Expansion is an add-on and requires the base game Kingdom Death: Monster to be used.
How many players can participate with this expansion?
Just like the base game, the expansion supports 1 to 6 players. The Death Armor is a goal that the entire group can strive for.
Does the expansion add many new rules or is it more focused on components?
It heavily focuses on adding a significant campaign goal and thematic components, like the miniatures and cards. The additional rules revolve around acquiring and using the armor, integrating into the existing experience.
Do I need to know English to play with the Death Armor Expansion?
Yes, the rulebook included in the expansion is in English. If you're not comfortable with the language, you might need to look for translations or have the base game in Portuguese.
Is it very difficult to obtain the Death Armor?
Obtaining the Death Armor is one of the most challenging goals in the game, requiring many resources (monster bones) and strategic planning within your campaign. It's designed to be a 'late game goal'.
Is this expansion more about combat or settlement management?
Acquiring the armor involves both combat (to get the rare bones) and settlement management (to have the necessary resources for crafting). Its use, of course, directly impacts combat.
