Recently we completed a lot of side quests, gaining resources, experiences, new levels, rewards, and skills for our group. Also wrapping up some unfinished business. We are preparing for a large coma back to the main campaign thread – especially very difficult boss scenario which we failed already once: #21 Realm of Endless Frost. That one is connected with the Lurkers sub-campaign, and we are very curious how it will end up.
So, did we move against the boss yet? Nope, not yet. We estimated that with one more side quest we all should be able to get a promotion and – importantly – do not change the average scenario level (it scales with experience of the group). Thus, we decided for another crazy experience (literally!) for loot and glory!
Our Frosthaven Campaign in scenario order:
Some interesting materials about Frosthaven World: Frosthaven – first look – starting characters (1/2) Frosthaven – first look – starting characters (2/2) Frosthaven – monsters' analysis & strategies – Lurkers Frosthaven – monsters' analysis & strategies – Unfettered
The composition of our group has not changed for last 7-8 scenarios – and one can see how efficiently we started to cooperate; we know what that means when somebody says I will be fast, or I will be slow. We cooperate regarding the elements, special attacks, etc. Mind you, without too much table talk. All of this thanks to those three great characters:
- Damage Dealer – my Deathwalker at level 6
- Support – Trapper (Kuba J) level 4
- Tank – Coral (Kuba G) level 4
As we are still growing in our roles, we again decided on Normal Difficulty – we really needed a victory here and three promotions. Let us see how it went!

Here is our scenario:
Now you see what I meant by crazy, bizarre adventure. Not only you can complete this in two ways – fighting Hungry Maw or feeding it 🙂 But also the scenario description and the problem (hungry zombie?) was a very interesting background to the story.
The poor monster was unlucky – we decided for quick, brutal, and hopefully fast way to complete the scenario – attacking Hungry Maw. We thought – one room, quick fight, and we move on. Of course, as always in Frosthaven, we were quickly corrected.

Summary
Fun scenario to play, interesting twist in the middle, lot of options to complete and successfully ending. But what is most important ALL THREE characters got promotion! We shall be much better prepared for the #21 Realm of Endless Frost and its nasty Boss!
See you in another session report!
The Boardgames Chronicle 
There was little chance for us to complete the puzzle, as our characters aren’t very mobile, so we decided for a shorter route -the boss combat. As a trapper i hoped to complete my mastery (pushing an enemy through 7 traps in one action), but sadly after the boss moved in the first turn i was unable to create such long path, and since polar bears appeared in the 2nd room i had to use those traps to handle bears. Fairly simple scenario, when Deathwalker can kill 3-4 ice imps in a single turn, and boss doesn’t deal enormous amount of damage(we could heal ourelves if we needed). The midgame healup and immunity was a problem, we had to figue out our placement and avoid bear’s attakcs, but in a few turns deathwalker’s attacks through shadows easily handled imps, and my traps easily killed the elite bear, so after all it wasn’t a very difficult scenario.
