Enhance the experience of Armata Strigoi (an Adventure with Powerwolf) with this expansion which includes new enemy miniatures and 3D towers! Not only werewolf vs vampires, now a new deadly enemy is going to resurrect thanks to an evil ritual! From the Publisher: “The Strigoi are nearing extinction. The Master and his Apprentice, locked up in the fortress of Tismana, are besieged by the Powerwolf and play their last card, hoping to complete an ancient sacrificial rite that leads to the rebirth of the Deus Diabolus Tempter — the Cobra King! To complete the rite, the maidens imprisoned in the fortress towers must be turned into succubi, but the Cobra King's will and ferocity is uncontrollable even for the Strigoi, to the point that it may manifest itself ahead of time! Will the Powerwolf succeed in getting the maidens to safety to prevent the rise of the Cobra King? This is far from an easy adventure, suitable only for the real Powerwolf!” -description from the publisher
