About the game
Add-on for the Versus Expansion, featuring a mini-campaign of 4 scenarios for villains (as heroes) and 7 hero sheets for these characters: Bane, The Riddler, Scarecrow, The Joker, Two-Face, Penguin and Harley Quinn. The mini-campaign takes place on the four maps of the base box(es). You will play as Bane and some of the worst criminals of Gotham City he has allied with. Bane’s plan is to use them to take over the city and break its protector, the Dark Knight. The story begins where you have already seen the heroes, in the abandoned subway station under the city hall. The villains allied with the Court of Owls and they attempt to collapse the building in order to create chaos. Is this improbable alliance going to hold without betrayal? Will the heroes be able to stop those villains before they take control of the city? —description from the publisher
