Nixon Pet Card and Figure Bones Pet Card and Figure Gadget Pet Card and Figure Biru Pet Card and Figure Scrag Pet Card and Figure Owlbunny Pet Card and Figure Additionally, the Poison Dragon Expansion comes packaged separately in its own box, but is also a Kickstarter exclusive and comes along side the "Hell of a Box". This includes an Oversized miniature, cards, tokens and map tile, along with an endgame scenario similar to the other Dragon expansions. The Poison Dragon is an expansion for both Arcadia Quest, Arcadia Quest inferno, and can be played in conjunction with the Frost, Fire and Chaos Dragon expansions. The game comes with a large Dragon Mini, new loot cards, new tiles and the new type of cards, "Dragonstone cards". After finishing a campaign, the players will get a new load out of Level 6 Upgrade cards, with a budget that is based on the amount of medals each guild completed during the campaign. This last part of the fight doesn’t have PvP Quest Cards and all players have to kill the Dragon before he wrecks too much of the city! This is a fully cooperative fight, in which the players win as a group if they manage to kill the Dragon and they lose if too many parts of the city have been destroyed, or if the Dragon kills Heroes so much that they can’t find the resolve to continue the fight. In this ultimate showdown, the Dragon is controlled by a special set of Dragon Turn cards that will trigger special attacks and movements from the Poison Dragon. Players will need to make tough choices in the face of the Dragon's actions, deciding as a group where to focus their efforts (and who to sacrifice). Components 1 dragon figure 1 double-sided tile 24 level 6 upgrade cards 2 relic cards 14 dragonstone cards 24 dragon turn cards 20 poison tokens 2 dragon monster cards 1 rulebook/campaign booklet 1 dragon power card The Poison Dragon turns the streets of Arcadia into a hazy gauntlet of deadly fumes, weakening heroes as he snuffs all life in the city. This expansion will bring an entire new epic showdown against this poisonous wyrm, featuring cooperative play between players through two scenarios where you have to ground the dragon, and prevent it from poisoning the entire city!
