About the game
This expansion has been divided in to 8 equal packs called Chapters; Shadow Hold, Gul'Matok, Shadow Spear, Zhira, Shadow Spiral, Noszrath, Shadow Tier and Sorrowheart. Each pack is 60 cards. Shadow Tier is home to the mysterious Whisperer. They have a strange hold in the Dread Empire, acting as more of a free agent or advisor than a combatant or general. Their Fire Giant allies are instead sent out to enforce the area. —description from the publisher
