Chittering, insect-like creatures pour out of their dens and tunnels across the realm of Terrinoth, covering cities and roads in webs and deadly ambushes. Trade grinds to a halt, while those unlucky enough to be ensnared are quickly devoured. The danger is obvious, but some suspect there is an underlying darkness at work - behind the webs, someone is pulling the strings. The world of Terrinoth is a vibrant realm of adventure and danger. Anything can happen, and the actions of a few fearless heroes can change the fate of the entire nation. In every game of Runebound, you and your fellow players become fearless heroes, adventuring across the land, gaining new skills and assets, and testing your might against an intractable evil. You decide the path your hero follows - where your steps will take you, what challenges you'll undertake, and what kind of hero you want to become. Now, with two new expansions for Runebound, you have even more options to decide your hero's path and experience the world of Terrinoth. These two expansions fall into distinct categories. Caught in a Web is a Scenario Pack, introducing an entirely new scenario with new adventure cards for combat, exploration, and social encounters and a new deck of story cards to drive the scenario forward. In the Caught in a Web Scenario Pack, you may battle an Arachyura, track a nest of spiders to the Smokeblue Hills, or delve deep into tunnels that riddle the ground beneath Terrinoth. Fortunately, a new hero also arrives to save Terrinoth - Jonas the Kind.
The Gilded Blade, on the other hand, is an Adventure Pack, and adds more replayability to every scenario. Here, you’ll find new asset and skill cards, giving you entirely new ways to customize your heroes, while new adventure cards can be used to change the flavor of any scenario. You may face off against a Highway Gang, but thankfully for the heroes, a new hero also joins the game in this expansion: Red Scorpion!
