Shadows of Brimstone: River of the Dead Enemy Theme Pack

What is Shadows of Brimstone: River of the Dead Enemy Theme Pack

River of the Dead is a new type of product for Shadows of Brimstone called an Enemy Theme Pack, and this one is about the nefarious Cult of Horus and their devotion to finding and resurrecting the scattered relics and mummified remains of their ancient master, Khamuntet!. It's a great way to add a bunch of exciting new Enemies, cards, and Missions that are all themed for a specific World or faction in the game.

River of the Dead

The great god Osiris was lord of the dead, ruler of the afterlife, and master of resurrection. The fields would grow at his command and the souls of the dead would be judged in his name, worthy or unworthy to pass on into the afterlife. Killed by his jealous brother Set, Osiris’s body was cut into pieces and spread throughout the land, before being re-assembled and resurrected by the power of the goddess Isis, his wife.

It was in this tradition that the Arch-Villain Khamuntet, after finally being defeated millennia ago, was also cut into pieces and sealed away in the hidden tombs of his own dark sorcery, buried deep in the desert sands. Now the fanatical Cult of 'Horus, son of Osiris', seek to reassemble and resurrect Khamuntet in the same way, so he too may pass judgement on mankind, spreading Darkness across the land!
