So Deep Below and the Five Leagues Compendium then

It should not be too much longer before the preorders for the Five Leagues Compendium go up (next week?) 

This will combine the first two expansions (which is already a monstrous amount of gaming goodness) as well as a stand alone game titled Deep Below.

Deep Below is a Five Leagues spin off (similar to how Bug Hunt is a Five Parsecs spin off), focused on exploring and fighting within a cavernous underworld. 

The rules feature:

The same combat system you are used to, allowing you to get up and running quickly and even transfer characters back and forth.

Character origins: Adventurer Humans, Derzkan, Windspite Dwarfs, Weaslings and Grey Elfs

A new magic approach (runes)

Randomly generated (and thus unique) enemies to fight.

A new type of mission with exploration and unpredictable encounters in huge underworld caves.

A bit of base building on the side as the settlement you are defending expands over time.

New magic goodies to find.

It is playable 100% on its own as its own experience or as a way to link up with the main Five Leagues game.
