About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready to face new challenges with the False Messengers expansion pack for Kingdom Death: Monster! This beauty brings four brand-new miniatures: the Messenger of Courage, the Messenger of the First Story, the Messenger of Humanity, and the Messenger of the Spiral Path. Each of these messengers comes with their own newly developed rules, promising to shake up your games of the already complex and dark KDM universe even further. If you're into KDM, you know that each expansion is a gateway to new stories, mechanics, and, of course, jaw-dropping miniatures. This expansion is no different, diving deep into the narrative and confrontations that made the game famous. Expect more of that addictive mix of RPG, tactical grid combat, tension-filled dice rolling, and narrative choices that truly matter. It's the kind of content that makes you want to sit down and play for hours on end, unraveling mysteries and fighting for survival in a brutal world. Perfect for those already immersed in the main campaign and looking to further expand the experience, adding new adversaries and challenges to test your skills and strategies. Remember that, like most things in KDM, the content is dense and requires attention to detail and the specific rules for each messenger. But the reward is even deeper immersion into this dark and fascinating universe.
