## Description
If you're tired of facing the same old White Lions in Kingdom Death: Monster, the Frogdog expansion is the spice your campaign has been missing! This sinister monster, lurking at the start of the game, brings a stench of novelty and putrid challenges. With two distinct armors, the Frogdog serves as both an early obstacle and a later target in your journey, ensuring your adventure stays interesting. Prepare to deal with stench bubbles and a bioelectric hum that will test your survivors' sanity.

Victory against the Frogdog not only rewards you with a new set of gear and fighting arts but also introduces an even more fearsome variant: the Tusked Bullfrogdog. This creature, with its new AI and HL cards, promises an epic confrontation for the later stages of the campaign, unlocking an arsenal of armor and equipment worthy of seasoned players. The expansion is packed with content, including detailed miniatures of the Frogdog and its minions, board tiles, dozens of game and gear cards, plus new settlement locations and events. Remember, Kingdom Death: Monster already demands a lot from players, and this expansion, with its language dependency and mature themes, is for those seeking total immersion and aren't afraid of a good challenge (or a foul odor!).
