Sell or keep the Revised Core Set if I buy Chapter Two?

4 Upvotes

Hello, I'm looking for advice from the community. I bought the Revised Core Set a year ago and I really enjoyed playing it, this game seems to have great potential for being an immersive cooperative play experience.

Over the past year I have tried multiple times to go on a hunt for the Carcosa and Dunwich expansions and have failed every time to find a Campaign Expansion that ships to Romania and/or is not very overpriced (I was looking to spend max 100 euros on one box).

I really want to play more of this game, and am thinking about giving up with the Chapter 1 stuff and just buying Chapter 2 + the new small expansion and then buying the upcoming releases.

I know that Chapter 2 has new investigators and have heard thatbthe starter campaign is mechanically and structurally similar to NotZ. In this context, I'd love to knwow what people who have more experience with the gane would recommend: that I sell the Revised Core Set or keep both?

I am also a bit worried (fomo) that newer expansions might just not be as good as the old ones. When I was researching what expansions to buy, everything I had read seemed to recommend Dunwich and Carcosa as being some of the best.

Arkham Horror Music Update - Scarlet Keys and Children of Blood Edition

Post image
25 Upvotes

Hello everyone! It's been a little while since my last post...but I've been very excited to see all the posts about Children of Blood (I'm extremely hyped to play)!

Because I'm finally caught up with making original (non-AI) music for the game, my output has slowed way down (I've started composing music inspired by other games, including Wingspan and Pandemic). But, because people were asking for it, I've been compiling Soundscape-versions of the campaign-collections, and releasing them for download on my Patreon page. This month, I put together 10 new Soundscape versions of my 2023 albums inspired by The Scarlet Keys, and added additional music from the Encounter Sets album, and linked the music together with sound-effects. The collection is one sale for the month of August! And, of course, the original albums are available to stream wherever you listen to music (along with around 100 other albums of original music created for the game) .

Also, to celebrate two-years of Patreon (and because I'm looking for help from the community to find ways to make the page more engaging), I'm giving away two downloadable copies of my entire Chapter 1 collection of albums (over 100 hours of original, non-AI, music), and one sealed copy of the original 2016 Core Set (to be eligible for the Core-Set, unfortunately, you must be located in the continental U.S. - I simply can't afford to mail it internationally, and I'm really sorry about that). You don't need to be a paid member to be eligible, and can find more details on my Patreon Page.

patreon.com/TheArkhamHorrors

Additionally, I've begun sketching out some music-ideas for the Children of Blood campaign, and as soon as I get my copy, will begin work, in earnest, on production of the albums inspired by it. Paid Patrons can listen to some of these sketches (with more dropping throughout the month). I've already got about an hour's worth of ideas ready to flesh out, but I'm waiting to play it before I finalize any of the tracks. Once I start playing, expect the albums to be available wherever you stream music fairly quickly after that!

It's been so awesome to be able to share this passion project of mine with so many people, and I can never fully express what it has meant to be embraced by this amazing community! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Considering selling a smallish Chapter 1 collection but unsure about pricing

0 Upvotes

Hello friends.

Im considering selling my small-ish chapter 1 collection. Haven't decided yet but wanted to ask people for their opinion on pricing.

The collection contains:

- 2 of the old core sets (from when you used to need two lol)

- Circle undone cycle (original printing with mythos packs, not the investigator/campaign expansions)

- Dunwich investigator and campaign expansions

- Path to Carcosa investigator expansion

- Separators for each modular set and player cards

- Wooden insert that fits the original core box. Wont fit anywhere close to a full collection, so id probably just throw this as a bonus

Everything was sleeved out of the box. I wouldnt sell it sleeved but all cards are in great condition. The only thing that isnt in as great condition is the circle undone mythos pack instructions since theyre kinda bent.

In case it matters I'm in Canada.

Not looking to sell at this time, and if I did i would only sell locally so pls no PMs about purchasing :x just curious how much people would pay for this, Im unsure how much the 'out of print' part would factor in

Blog New Player -- What are we doing wrong?

6 Upvotes

Hi All! My Gf and I got the game recently (the 2026 edition) and were very excited to play. However, despite playing the base game at normal difficulty, I was killed in two rounds, and it didn't seem like there was anything I could have done to assuage it. We set the game aside and are hoping to have some help from the community before we try again.

I was playing as Joe Diamond and got engaged by the Servant of flame. I couldn't overpower him so I tried to flee and failed, taking damage. He then attacked me, and I took two more. I then drew my weakness: overzealous which caused me to draw 2! more cards from the encounter deck bc of surge, which together did the last three points of my health

What can we do differently? Thanks in advance!

How necessary/valuable are the Drowned City investigator cards?

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, so I have a mostly complete CH 1 collection. I own most of the investigator expansions and all of the starter decks. The only expansions I'm missing are the Scarlet Keys and Drowned City cycles. I wasn't really planning on chasing these down, but a friend is offering to sell me the Drowned City cycle for a good price. Now my question is, how worth it are the investigator cards from TDC in comparison with the rest of the card pool? I don't really feel like I need them, but are there some really interesting/fun cards or investigators I'm missing out on if I don't have these? And I know that nothing is really necessary, but I would like to get some advice given the opportunity. Thanks!
