Shadows of Brimstone: Narrative Encounter Pack 1: The Ghost of Curly Jones
Legend tells of old Curly Jones, a down-on-his-luck prospector who hit it big with a gold mine and was swindled out of it, betrayed, and killed for the loot. Now he haunts the old mines around Brimstone searching for his lost gold and taking his revenge on any that would try and steal from his claim!
Model is a Thermal Plastic Miniature manufactured in the USA. Model is supplied unassembled and unpainted.

This is a great new way to handle encounters, with a narrative that has branching choices and multiple outcomes. The story adds a lot of great lore and backstory to the included enemy, with the upside that it is highly replayable. The mechanics feel similar to Arkham Horror LCG, albeit in a much smaller scale. Ideally this is the first set of many, although it would be great to see card packs for existing enemies that can expand their story.

If you are like my play group, playing the basic mine missions can get repetitive. I appreciate a new twist to the same old thing. Plus you can't go wrong with a ghost miner (who remembers his appearance with Scooby Doo?). The quality was good. I would have preferred hard plastic or metal for the miniature but understand the limitations with self production.

$30 for this product is too expensive. You only get the model of Curly Jones, a handful of cards, a rulesheet, and the enemy sheet itself. Yet, I don't play with this narrative expansion. So I can't tell about the story. But this is another Adventure content, like the Badlands or other supplements. A few more rules you have to care about it. $20 as a maximum for this addition will be okay.
