Descent: Journeys in the Dark

A hero turn is three steps: Refresh, Equip, then Take an Action (move, attack, interact); follow the hero turn diagram and action options on Rulebook p.8.

An attack requires an unobstructed line of sight from attacker to target drawn across the map (walls and obstacles block LOS); follow the declare and LOS steps in the attack sequence on Rulebook pp.9–10.

Spawn and trap cards trigger during the overlord’s turn and instruct you to place monsters on the valid spawn points shown on the map or card, following the detailed spawn placement rules and examples on Rulebook p.12.

Heroes cannot move through closed doors without opening them (opening is an action); rune-locked doors require the specific key or action described by the quest, and full door/exploring rules are on Rulebook pp.13–14.

Power surges are special faces on power dice and fatigue can be spent to reroll dice or activate certain effects as described in the power-dice and fatigue rules; see Rulebook pp.10 and 17 for die faces, surges, and spending fatigue to reroll.

Guard is an interrupt order that lets a hero react to attacks on adjacent allies outside their normal action, while Rest is a separate order with its own timing and effects; see Guard interrupts and Rest order rules on Rulebook pp.14–15.
