So it looks like monsters also got quite a boost to stats. Orcs are rocking some serious dice!
And the new book looks awesome! The Portraits really make it pop out.
Can't wait for a new adventure to drop so I can give it a test!

Monsters are all a bit tougher now to better suit the Hero levels.
I have posted another update to increase the white space between entries and make it a bit easier to read. Hopefully I can get the figure art together to create figure sheet to download. I hope to have a catch up file which just has the new figures and a new Starter file which has all the Starter figures in one download (or maybe two?).
Hopefully I can get a quick level 1 quest complete within the next two days. It will definitely be only a trial, and probably change as we work out the best formats and what suits the new rules best.

Yes!
Now do you think the previous quests would even be remotely compatible with the new version? The guy's I play with were really interested in the concept behind this (we've been playing 2nd Descent and its been going... uh... well really one-sided). The thing is though, I'd probably want to have a few different quests on hand so we could give more than one a shot.
Overall, I'm loving the new rulebook so far.
Great job Shaun!

Of course they'll need some adjusting, but you could try just using Monsters of the previous Quests with the new stats, and thus putting the Quest at a higher level. No way level 1 heroes can match a Troll now! I think Den of the Orcish Raiders and the Troll Lair are easily doable with the stats already in the Monster Book... Wicked Witch needs new stats and Lich King new figures (oh yeah, Paul Shadowolf promised us! )

Yey! Keep in mind this is still a WIP - even the sample Heroes are not to be taken seriously. Hope to hear what you think of the new abilities, the way they are presented, the item tables, whether the Town Rules even need to be a part of the core game, and how to expand them. Yes, we know. There are no spells. Don't despair, we'll get a couple of Schools done in a few days.

Guys. You gave me a way to make a Paladin.
Healing Touch is AWESOME.
This looks so cool!

Nice! That was also on our to-do list! Shaun and I discussed it on the board and came to the conclusion that a lot of people who would like to give DP a shot were intimidated by the amount of figures and tiles to be cut, and tokens could provide a viable alternative. We have plans to do tokens for heroes too. And by heroes, I mean you can expect some new ones, tall and short, to come to the dungeon!

Oh! Cool! Yeah, if you want me to keep making tokens, I have no problem doing that. Anything I can do to help you guys out!
Also, is there any word on the magic schools coming out? I have a new group I'm gaming with tomorrow, and I'd like to bring by the playtest so we can give it some work.

actually, there is... but with shaun being sick, I'm not sure if it will come out soon. I'll try to upload a preliminary version of one or two schools (for the typical wizard and cleric) until the end of the day, just to see if we're on the right track.

Awesome! I'll keep an eye out for it.
Also Erf, totally unrelated, but I'm trying to pick a Final Fantasy to replay again... should I go with 9 or 10?
