HeroQuest Jungles of Delthrak - Branching Quest & Berserker Rules, Monster Keywords | UK Games Expo

You mention that the questbook doesn’t include the animal allies as a part of the story, but there is a new artifact that I assume is found within a specific quest that brings the Raptor into play. The artifact card reads: “Fangwarden Armlet: Your Raptor friend nuzzles against the palm of your hand. Use this magical armlet to call forth a Raptor animal ally. If the Raptor is defeated, the armlet's power goes dormant. Its power replenisher if the hero completes 2 quests without assistance. This artifact may only be used once per quest.” The inclusion of the artifact seems to me as a “story reason” to include the Raptor ally.

So, zerker initially uses a broadsword, yet they give them a damn 2H axe. 😁😂

I've said it before; you're my main source of Heroquest news, so I appreciate the video here and look forward to the ones you'll make when it's available. I'm on the fence with this one, but at this point I own all but one of the existing expansions (Spirit Queen's Torment, I think) so I don't know. I've got a real FOMO/Sunk Cost Fallacy situation here. I know! I'll just wait for future ABNB videos. Problem solved. :-)

Excellent vid! Looking forward to getting this at release.

awesome stuff @Always Board Never Boring thanks for reporting LIVE from the UK Gaming Expo. I wasn't sure if you were there, but thank goodness you were. super great to see the community working together and having "men on the inside" ;) super great, we've shared some of your content on our channel too.

Great vid.

Another great, informative and well put together video!

What an amazing experience to meet Sir Ian Livingstone and Jonathan Green. Thanks for sharing all the new HQ product I preordered mine now just need to wait.

I think we need to be real, it's a very underwhelming set.

The dwarfs axe's are so small it looks like they're going to go out and do gardening rather than fight off monsters, the quality of the sculpts are subpart, even the classic heroquest minis had cleaner more defined mold.

This is not 30-50$ worth of quality content

Raptor is my favorite thing here

Female dwarf explorer immediatly dubbed "Dora" by everybody at the table. I like danger sense. Trapsmith is basically you playing Minesweeper against Zargon and I would rule that for Treasure hunter to work the treasure card actually has to mention that you find gold coins. So Gem would not count, but Treasure horde would.

Have the Barbarian, armed only with a dagger attack the giant ape, to recreate that fight from the Conan novel Hour of the dragon.

Great update, appreciate the information. I enjoy getting new characters to utilize.

So Hasbro did the reboot and this is another company doing this expansion?

I am incredibly excited for Jungles of Delthrak! I didn't think about how the Explorer and Berserker are "upgraded" forms of the Barbarian and Dwarf though, that's a nice catch! I appreciate that Avalon Hill continues to give us new Heroes rather than give the Barbarian their own Hero Cards, as it keeps them simple and gives players more interesting decisions to make.

I hope you had fun at the expo! I didn't think HeroQuest had any presence at any expos, so I'll keep my eyes out in the future.

Always GREAT, never boring. I love heroquest and I love this channel. Cheers

HeroQuest does Jumanji.

Excellent work dude. You've covered some things i havent heard as yet 😁👍 look forward to your indepth review

HerQuest, to me at least, is about fighting monsters. Not animals =/

When is this coming out?

there are so many different kinds of heores and monsters by now that you could run an entire RPG campaign just using HeroQuest minis, and all the different markers, tiles and terrain pieces only help. I am really looking forward to this one, and I am sure I'll find some dual use for the contents 😁

Great video, thanks for it. Purely cosmetically, as the possibilities expand with each new release, I'm hopeful of a card tiered throne room for the middle of the board, amongst others, a la Descent and similar.

This looks a worthy expansion can’t wait for the new bad guys to be used. Thanks for some info not covered as well. It’s a shame we didn’t get a new board to represent the jungle… when will this be released as well…

Good stuff

Can't wait to trudge through the jungle yelling SPOON!

Bloody sold out on hasbro, Amazon and Zatu which are the only places currently listing it in the UK.. pretty annoying to be honest.. Hope they fix this, through I'm still waiting for my copy of ogre horde to come which I pre-ordered before release and seems to be perpetually held up.

I really like your approach to this. Just like Ash from Ashquest, you don't have to be the first to deliver the best content.
I'm excited for this quest pack. It won't be everybody's favorite I guess. But to me this looks just very cool.

Tyvm ❤

Huh! That's a funny looking BrodeSword on the Berserker! 😅 Kinda funny how the angry berserker can't use ANY ranged weapon. Because, as we all know, angry people never throw things! 😂

Seriously though, this looks so cool! I can't wait!!😊

Cool review, thanks man 👍🏻 this expansion looks great. I love how AH seems now to be alternating new and classic expansions.

Well,since we're bringing up new boards and all,you may,or may not,recall I mentioned getting one of Hasbro's D&D campaign sets from Ollie's for 3 bucks. The set contained a bunch of dungeon tiles as well as a 2 sided game board. Think of the Heroquest board but with no rooms,just the gray corridor tiles. The other side was the same but with a grass field.

I couldn't help but think this would've been a great board for either a Heroquest expansion or as an "upgraded" version of the game since it offers the limited play area of Heroquest with the modularity of Advanced Heroquest. Basically,you place rooms and walls and this creates a much more modular game.

So since Hasbro already has the boards,it seems to me that Avalon Hill could probably have used them to make this new board expansion/upgraded version of the game. Especially since they're big on reusing assets. Also,if you get the oppotunity,you should definitely grab the D&D campaign sets,especially the terrain one.

As someone who generally plays solo and uses the app to do so it seems some of these rules may be difficult to implement into the app so they work or function properly. Did they mention anything about this and how the app will function or if indeed it will even be added to the app for use? I would imagine they will but again I can see issues with using the app for this expansion.

I am so looking forward to this expansion!

Explorer seems a very decent support character. From what I hear, it may actually make sense to bring both the Explorer and the Dwarf on the same team - only two heroes away from purely dwarven parties being an option! 😄

Second! woop woop

Ha! First😊

Any ideas for implementing the new
red animal figurines as druid-forms?
