This conversion kit (you guessed it!) converts all the miniatures that were ever made for the first edition of Descent into playable monsters and heroes for the second edition. So the contents are simply all the stat cards for aforementioned monsters and heroes.
First Edition Owners:
If you own any part of first edition Descent, even just the core game, this conversion kit is a must have. At a relatively cheap price point, all of your old miniatures will still be usable in the new and improved second edition.
Those who don’t own first edition:
I would recommend purchasing this conversion kit anyway. Again, it is relatively cheap, and you truly get a metric ton of extra heroes and monsters to play with. All you have to do is find some miniatures to sub in for them (and if you are anything like me, you have tons of extra miniatures lying around).
There may be two down sides to having so many monster/hero options:
1. Some of the monsters and heroes can start to feel very similar.
2. Too many options! Wait, that’s not a down side. 😉
Just to reiterate, if you own Descent Second Edition, and you like having lots of options for monsters as the overlord or heroes as a player, pick this up!
The conversion kit enables you to expand the selection of heroes and monsters in Descent 2.0. Contents consists mainly of statistics cards.
The Overlord in Descent has (in most scenario’s) the ability to choose his own type of monsters. With the conversion kit, more monsters become available.
Likewise, the players have more heroes to choose from. The only restriction is the availability of class decks in the base game; this means that although there is a vast selection of heroes, their abilities are more of less the same.
Ownership of the original figures is for purists only; other miniatures can as easily be used.
