Soda Pop Traverse The Thundervale With New Huntress
November 28, 2013 by brennon
Soda Pop Miniatures have been previewing some information about the upcoming Forgotten Kings Expansion for Super Dungeon Explore. First up we have this neat looking Thundervale Huntress...
It looks like things are going to be taking a natural twist and possibly leaving the dungeons with this one. I haven't really been a fan of these kind of chibi miniatures but the prospect of some druidic forces taking over the tabletop is pretty cool.
The original Super Dungeon Explore is still a bit of a favourite with gaming groups and they ironed out a lot of the kinks when they went through the changes shortly after launch. I think as a dungeon delver it has a certain appeal and it is very fun looking, but my heart rests with Descent right now. I prefer the dark and gritty look to the chibi/anime one!
Will you be picking up the expansion?

Bariaur, surely.
Chibi your so chibi 😛
I hear the next expansion will contain the most evil beings of them all…… vegetables!
The enemies in the next expansion are said to be plants and chimeras. Rumor has it the other two heroes will be very cool too.
Ben may enjoy the dark and gritty games but I feel like I’ve been choking on them for quite a while. Something lighthearted and whimsical is just what I needed to break things up.
Although they have some superficial similarities, SDE and Descent play very differently. I much prefer the former as I find Descent a bit too turgid.
I have some card game dungeon delves that do that for me – so, it’s not going to be the same for everyone. Also I could pick up Mice & Mystics for a good dungeon delver too 🙂
I watched a lot of anime and stuff at university and kind of over did it – so I don’t think I’ve properly come round to the style yet again.
BoW Ben
I’ve never played SDE and not had a blast. It’s not so much a dungeon crawl as it is a tabletop version of Gauntlet that’s been amped up, imo.
The company is total crap when it comes to replacing broken/missing components in their boxes, though.
Which company?
The minis are great, however the game itself isn’t my favorite. Would be nice to see more miniatures from the sculptors of SDE, probably a big line of different heroes/villains… I’m just dreaming ^_^
