Upon the release of the game's first deluxe expansion; Khazad-dum; Middle-earth's heroes first departed the Shadows of Mirkwood and embarked upon a perilous journey through the dark and twisting mines of Moria. Their search for the missing Dwarf; Balin; led them far from the familiar locations and foes of the Core Set into a lightless realm populated by hordes of Orcs; Goblins; and Cave Trolls; along with another presence; darker and more sinister than anything they had previously encountered...

Now; you can experience the novelty and terrors of Khazad-dum all over again with Khazad-dum Nightmare Decks; a single set of three twenty-card Nightmare Decks; one for each of its three scenarios: Into the Pit; The Seventh Level; and Flight from Moria.

Nightmare Decks introduce deadly new encounter cards and scenario-specific rules that greatly increase the challenges of the scenarios they enhance; while simultaneously layering subtle plot twists and thematic alterations. The result is that when you play these scenarios in Nightmare Mode; your old strategies may be countered; and if you don't adapt to the new challenges you face; you may quickly meet your doom.
