Wildlands: The Adventuring Party

Time to shake things up in Wildlands with the "The Adventuring Party" expansion! This new crew brings four classic adventurers – think thief, mage, cleric, and barbarian – ready to cause a ruckus. They can replace one of the original factions, and the best part is the cleric has a healing ability that can keep your team in the fight longer. Imagine healing your companions amidst the chaos!

But watch out: these adventurers don't just stand around waiting. They enter the fray in a different way. Instead of assigning map cards to each character individually, the player chooses five cards to pass to their neighbor and keeps the other five. When revealing a character, you can choose any location you have a map for, and Thom the Cleric's exclusive heal action lets you remove a damage token from a nearby character.

And if you fancy an extra challenge, the "Adventuring Party" can be used in the "Encounter" rules. In this mode, they appear on the board from the start, and at the end of each player's turn, a random card of theirs is revealed, performing an action that could involve stealing your crystals, attacking your units, or simply spreading chaos. It's a great addition for those who already enjoy Wildlands and want more variety, whether to play with a new faction or to add a dynamic and unpredictable obstacle to your games.
