About the game
Additional boss Baba Yaga. The expansion introduces rules for surprise threats. These cards introduce dangerous enemies (even bosses) into play without any warning. The surprise threat from this expansion adds Baba Yaga as far away from agents as possible, but no further than two rooms away from the agent. Baba Yaga does not activate until an enemy disturbs her. The boss uses ranged attacks (the first 5 attacks with a range of 8, the following with a range of 5) and instead of melee attacks, flies away from agents to a ranged attack distance.
