About the game
"Here's to Simeon's soul, God ha' mercy on the wretch and may he fail in the vengeance he swore to take on you" - Solomon Kane, The Right Hand of Doom Based on R.E Howard's story with the same name, The Right Hand of Doom is a story about a necromancer, and what happens when you cross him (spoiler – it’s not good). Luckily for Solomon, he arrives after the instigating event, so he is not the target of the necromancer’s wrath. Instead, he gets to try to halt this unholy vengeance. Whether he does or not is up to you. "Blood gushes over the rusty steal bars and Simeon quickly gathers up the several appendage with his left hand and throws it into the night, through the window bars. For a moment, the necromancer stands by the window, muttering dark, arcane words." Contents 1 Storybook (1 Act/ 10 Chapters) 1 Right Hand of Doom miniature 48 Discovery Cards This is an expansion, and cannot be played without the base game.
