This quest includes a set of playtest rules for bringing an animal companion on your solo adventures. A popular archetype in sword and sorcery tales is the friend of beasts. Great cats, horses, hawks, and all manner of small clever critters have a history of thwarting the machinations of foul sorcerers. We wanted to take this opportunity to playtest some new companion rules and tell a story of how your hero first encountered one of these faithful animals on their journey to the frozen north. I like that the "Hoth Wampa" look of the Yeti is mostly preserved, and I can't complain about the other monster sculpts. The Mercs look cool (and not at all like Bretonnian knights though I guess that had to be), but I was expecting more fur, I guess this is their first outing.

mercs (which, assuming the gold prices are unchanged, would cost 900 coins to hire and the same price to retain each quest), in dark blue instead of gray (red would be logical for a heroic faction but is more boring, and in actual fact the figures are used for both good and bad characters in the actual quests as they appeared in 1992)... I see, no removable weapons so enough for three options of each, but potentially you could hire MORE than in the original, making it easier (one strike against the unbearable difficulty of quests 4-10; unless they remove the rule that you can't hire them in 1-3!). At least we have now once again two shades of blue in the remake series. So about twice the manpower in battle to face those insurmountable odds... and just as the Guardian Knights would have served fine duty as mercenaries for hire in HeroQuest, so too these men (and women)-at-arms could also serve as alternate heroes perfectly well too (one could even double as Sir Ragnar as an equipped knight rather than prisoner). finely detailed miniatures (Frozen Horror, Barbarian, 12 Mercenaries, 3 Ice Gremlins, 2 Polar Warbears, 2 Yetis)
No pictures of cards yet... conspicuous by their absence... still working on them? I thought I was going a little overboard when I printed my customs with an icey-blue tint to them but that would fit perfectly with their overall theme here. Blue box instead of red, so no confusion with the original there. Magic ice tiles have a little dandelion design instead of the generic text ("magic ice") placed over an ice tile, I can get behind that change.

Who knows if the prices are going to be changed (maybe allow them to be hired in 1-3, or give a discount on the retainer fee as in Wizards of Morcar?). Still the mere fact that the number has doubled would be a big help all by itself (the 1992 rules state heroes can hire as many as they can afford), as that's another 12 body points potentially added to the party (unlike the EU mercs, they can be healed if they are at 1 BP, to their max of 2... assuming they haven't been boosted in strength at all). So the party's overall strength would increase to (again if the numbers are unchanged) 49 from the 37 of the original if nothing else is changed. Will your adventurers survive the harsh Northlands, or will the Frozen Horror reign supreme? The Quest is calling!

The original never had it and the original expansions just made do with room tiles, so no reason to deviate from that. But god it would be sooo cool! In short, I am willing to accept the product as advertised to be a real thing. I will for my part, keep my expectations low on the quality of the edits and delivery dates. I suspect that we will receive a quest book largely unchanged beyond IP references re-written. I also do not expect the Frozen Horror expansion to be available at retail until perhaps this time next year. I also love the frozen doors, new character sheets, and colored dice! If this is real and all the future expansions look like this, we're in for a real treat!LIMITLESS REPLAYABILITY: This expansion gives you more opportunities to delve deeper into the HeroQuest game, and adds to the replayability.
