Loading... Please wait...Shadows of Brimstone: SWARM PACK #2 Slashers
An Enemy Swarm Pack is a new themed set of cards focusing on fighting swarms of a particular Enemy Type, as well as a new set of Spawners for that Enemy Type. In this case, the pack focuses on fighting rampaging swarms of hungry Slashers and has a Feeding Burrow that spawns new Slashers during a Fight.
This pack also includes Enemy Record Sheets for the OtherWorld variants of Slashers (Swamp Slashers and Gorged Slashers, as well as 2 new OtherWorld variants... Larval Slashers and Slashers of the Deep), with the stats and modifiers worked into the Enemy Record Sheet itself, as well as new themed Elite Charts and Brutal sides for these variants.
A new Mission, Feeding Frenzy, allows the Heroes to go on an adventure to hunt down the burrow of these beastly creatures that are rampaging through the area. This set assumes you have access to the Slasher Enemies (miniatures and cards) from the Swamps of Death Core Set and does include an additional set of 6 Slasher miniatures, giving you a swarm of up to 9 of these savage beasts.
This set contains miniatures for 1 XL Feeding Burrow as well as 6 large Slashers.
The Feeding Burrow is a new Enemy introduced in this set, that acts as a Spawner for Slashers. A large rocky outcropping of Dark Stone, it is the ideal burrow for a nest of Slashers that bury themselves in the ground, feeding on the black rock. At the end of every Turn, more Dark Stone markers are added to the Feeding Burrow, until there is enough to spawn a new Slasher, consuming the Dark Stone as it erupts from the ground! This creates a new goal within the Fight for the Heroes to battle their way to the Feeding Burrow and destroy it before you are overwhelmed by a flood of Slashers. This can be dangerous though as the Dark Stone Radiation of the black rock can add up fast. The Burrow itself though can be a good source of some extra Dark Stone for the Heroes.

Fleshes out one of the original enemy monster from Swamps of death. This enemy pack intorduces another possible map tile interaction in case you find encounters and scavenging lacking.

A special bonus that makes this swarm pack worth are the original enemy sheets for the different Slasher OtherWorld variations. The idea of Belly-of-the-Beast slashers are a genius strike and their special abilities are very well done! The slashers of the Deep for the upcoming Sunken City of Pharrox are an interesting variant, too.
The adventure in this pack is extremly good, but very hard to play in combination with the new threat cards. This adventure shouldn't be played with heroes at hero level 1 or 2. Unfortunately you get the old slasher minis in red. This is a shame, especially for the high price of this product. The resin model of this pack is a standard mini that did not show lots of details. Hoped for a mini where a slasher is only half.buried in sand.
For $35 or max $40 I would rate the pack with 5 stars!

Good to have the cards for the various Otherworld variants….I’m painting up my set as larvae’s for the belly of the beast…..
Now I just have to figure out how to sculpt entrails and squishy bitz onto the spawning burrow
