Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion (Board Game)

Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion is a standalone game that takes place before theevents of Gloomhaven. The game includes four new characters — Valrath RedGuard (tank, crowd control), Inox Hatchet (ranged damage), Human Voidwarden(support, mind-control), and Quatryl Demolitionist (melee damage, obstaclemanipulation) — that can also be used in the original Gloomhaven game.

The game also includes 16 monster types (including seven new standardmonsters and three new bosses) and a new campaign with 25 scenarios that invitethe heroes to investigate a case of mysterious disappearances within the city.Is it the work of Vermlings, or is something far more sinister going on?

Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion is aimed at a more casual audience to get peopleinto the gameplay more quickly. All of the hard-to-organize cardboard map tileshave been removed, and instead, players will play on the scenario book itself,which features new artwork unique to each scenario. The last barrier toentry — i.e., learning the game — has also been lowered through asimplified rule set and a five-scenario tutorial that will ease new players intothe experience.
