Zargons turn pass

[Soundheart]

Hi! After the last game, I thought...Why I pass the turn,when I play as Zargon?

There was no monsters on the board, all doors was closed, heroes walked through the corridors and they every time rolled dice! But, in fine, I told them: "Ok, heroes, you can not roll dice, just align near the door as you wish open and tell me who open the door". Because why they must roll dice if they whatever wil come to the door, align near it and open it.

Can Heroes pass turn when there is no monsters on the board for good align near the door and then open it? And what mast to do Zargon in this time?

P.S. Sorry for my English

I will let Heroes move back to the stairs automatically on certain Quests, under those conditions.

We're creating an "event deck" even now, with cards that trigger certain events, such as a wandering monster, a trap, an alarm, a door opening or closing, etc. All sorts of strange effects.
The Evil Wizard player may draw a card from this deck whenever he has a turn with nothing to do, and may play that card when fitting.
It keeps the game going and more challenging.

I am wholeheartedly on board with cards like that. To me it takes any danger out of HQ when heroes clear a room and then Rank&File it to the next door every time. Makes the game very uneventful and quite boring.

i think its a good idea in theory, but the execution has to be handled correctly, the cards have to have a proper balance. if event cards turn a half hour quest into two hours of endless monsters it could wind up being more boring than doing nothing.
also, some quests are designed for a certain flow and layout. ive made a few where ive been very particular about what appears and where. adding random extra encounters would probably detract from the story so i think an encounter deck should only be used with quests that have been constructed with it in mind. also, once everything is done and dusted, you've killed the boss, got the treasure you just need to reach the square tile, there's no point in it. let a quest have a specific final scene (personally, i like to have a magical door to mentors lair appear and whisk hero's away once they're done)

Thanks! Its a good idea! Random event! I will make something like this.

But I dont understand what it means:

> The Evil Wizard may play as many cards on his, or the Heroes', turn if the requirements listed on the card are being met.
> At the start of his turn, the Evil Wizard player may draw one Evil Wizard card only if there are no revealed monsters on the board.

As many or one?

[chaoticprime]

Each card has a requirement described on it for when it can be played.

[Soundheart]

Ok. I think as follows:

1. If the card playing when any monster on board - You can play as many cards on your, or the Heroes', turn if the requirements listed on the card are being met.

2. If the card playing when no more monsters on board - You can play one card.

Is this right?

[Sjeng]

No, not exactly.

1. You DRAW 1 card when there are no monsters (= you have nothing to do). Zargon keeps them behind the screen

2. You may PLAY ANY of those cards during your own turn or the hero's turns IF you CAN play them. Each card has specific requirements for when you can/may play them written on it. Some cards may be played anytime, some must be played right after you draw them, some may only be played during combat etc.

[Soundheart]

DRAW. Ok! DRAW! Im understand!

And in this way Zargon (if he have "good" event cards) can play 1,2,3 or more cards on each heroes turns and than on his turns. Its Sparta!!!!!!

Very very very good idea! You're a genius

Also possible to make events which Zargon can doing if no more monsters on board.
