Page 18: Add “Two-Hero Game” section:
When playing with two heroes, the heroes receive an additional
advantage. Once during each hero’s turn, that hero may perform
one attack that does not require an action. This attack cannot be a
special action that includes an attack (“Rage” or “Exploding Rune” for
example); the attack must be a regular attack action. This attack can only
be performed during the “Perform Actions” step of the hero turn and
can be performed before or after either of his actions.
At the end of each hero’s turn, if that hero did not or could not perform
the free attack during his turn, he may instead recover 2 �.

cards faceup. The hero players may purchase any number of Act I Shop
Item cards.
3. Return all unpurchased Act I Shop Item cards, Act I Monster
cards, and Act I Lieutenant cards to the box. Retrieve the Act II Shop
Item cards, Act II Monster cards, and Act II Lieutenant cards from
the box. From now on, all monsters and lieutenants use their Act II
characteristics. Act I Shop Item cards currently in possession of the
heroes are unaffected. Any Act I Shop Item card sold by the heroes
during Act II is returned to the box.
4. Complete the campaign phase by performing steps 5-8 of the
campaign phase found on page 20.
