Augury card types - Monster / Henchman / Villain


Rules Questions and Gameplay Discussion


If I use Augury and select Monster as the type that I'm looking for are Henchman/Villains included or do I have to search by their specific type? i.e. Augury for a Villain specifically.

We have played it that you need to search for the specific type, but that seems counter-intuitive.


If the Henchman of Villain is a Monster, then yes.

Type: Most banes are either monsters or barriers. Most villains and henchmen have the “monster” type and count as monsters; a few henchmen have the “barrier” type and count as barriers.

Henchman and Villains, like Loot, have 2 types.

Thanks. We didn't notice that additional type box.

And the rulebook reference page is helpful as well.


We only just realized this ourselves on Saturday - makes a big difference trying to find henchmen/villains or avoid monsters (like in the Warrens).


I'm glad it isn't just us that were being oblivious.

We were playing it harder than it needed to be, but that's okay. We still had fun.
