DELVE: Biomes Expansion
🕑 Added 2023-07-31 12:45:01 +0000 UTCThe world opens up beneath us Overseer. A wealth of new Biomes to explore, Rooms to Build, and Units to Hire as we continue our search for the fabled Void Crystal. But be warned, with new opportunity comes new danger and there are rumours among the loremasters and miners about terrible things lurking in the shadows.
This expansion is all about Biomes which are unique areas with their own Natural Formation (♣) and Remnant (♠) tables, Artefacts, Enemies, and even gameplay mechanics.
There are 14 Biomes in this Expansion, each of which can randomly be found by Drawing an Ace while Exploring. From the simple Ant Colony to the fabled Hall of the Gods, any Overseer willing to brave these Biomes will find great reward and terrible risk.
This version is a Patreon exclusive while we get some cover art sorted out and until that point, I would massively appreciate pointing out any typos I've made (keep in mind I'm using British English so some words like colour are just spelled differently).
And of course, let me know which Biome is your favourite. Share stories of your Holds in the Discord and let me know of any strange edge case problems you run into that I haven't forseen.
EDIT: I've now updated the files with some clarified rules and the cover art :)

A slight clarification about Roads and Shields but apart from that its identical :)

Ooh, I see a cover has been added - were there any other changes of note from previous upload?

Such a huge amount of work has gone into this - have enjoyed a readthrough very much indeed. Looking even more forward to trying, when I have some free time! ^_^ Favoutie biome: hard to say, but I really like the Crystal Caves, Rising Dungeon, Wyrd, and Underworld particularly - but then the Dinosaurs of the Buried Jungle and fun of the Fallen hold... such a heck of a lot of content - can't wait to be able to buy a print copy.
