	Description Edit \| History

Translation : "Heroes in the Underworld"

This is the third release in the Return of the Heroes series. This time the journey goes into the Underworld, with characters and treasure from classical Greek mythology. Several new gameplay elements are introduced, particularly the concept of corruption and direct player to player conflict. This is a standalone game, but can optionally be combined with the other Return of the Heroes sets.

Condensed Rules for Helden in der Untervelt, 2-5 players

Please note that these condensed rules have been totally lifted and excerpted from the wonderful and necessary translation uploaded by Torbin Bequette, which you can find here: http://boardgamegeek.com/file/info/14433 I created this version of the rules because I found the original very long and difficult to use to find what I was looking for while playing the game. My condensation is for the standalone game for 2-4 players only. I've uploaded a Word document rather than a pdf so you can easily edit the rules for your own use. Please report any errors or omissions… LoMa
