The preview images posted seem consistent with this. The new Advanced Action cards go up to 40 (28+12), the spells go up to 24 (20+4), the artifacts go up to 24 (16+8). These numbers seem slightly disappointing to me. I was hoping for enough cards that every game would be different.
I've played about 25 2-player games and 25 solo games. I don't think any of the games were exactly like any other. AAs, spells, artifacts, tiles (with random orientation), enemies, and an opponent with a taste for PvP; all of this created great variety in my games. The expansion will increase this variety even more, I suspect.
Several months ago, I argued that the game didn't need an expansion so soon because it already had plenty of variety. I still think this is true. However, I am eagerly awaiting the delivery of my pre-ordered copy just like everyone else. I like near-impossible challenges; can I beat Volkare's Return at the hard level?
New AAs, spells, artifacts, a new mage knight, new enemies tokens, and Volkare; so far, I like what I see . . .
