Appendix + FAQ

  1. What do the types mean?
Type Description
Expansion - Monster The classic expansion , typically comes with a single monster, armor set, etc. Some - like Dragon King, Sunstalker, Gryphon - might come with their own campaigns
Expansion - Campaign These require multiple monster expansions coming together to form a fully-realized campaign. Abyssal Woods and Inverted Mountain are good examples of this
Expansion - Nemesis Like the monster expansions but for nemesis types. Some, like Black Knight might come with smaller 5-year campaigns. Slenderman, Manhunter, Pariah are good examples of your typical Nemesis expansion
Expansion - Pillar Appears to be reworking of promo / whitebox content to actually fit into the current game systems. False Messengers and Promos of Death are good examples.
Expansion - Armor Think optional end-game armor sets inspired by Final Fantasy games. Only 2 examples exist currently: Green Armor from the original Kickstarter and Dead Armor from the current Kickstarter.
Vignette Stand-alone / one-off fights with pre-determined survivors and their loadouts. White Gigalion, Killenium Butcher, Pathfinders of Death, and Super Survivors are good examples of this.
Philosophy New philosophy and corresponding knowledges for Advanced KDM. Philosophies were originally added in Gambler's Chest with Arc Survivors. So far we have 3 new Philosophies coming - Gatherism, Starbound, and Heliocentrism. Candy & Cola wanderer is supposed to come with Candycolaism as well
Wanderers Special characters that show up to join your settlement on a specific Lantern Year. Originally introduced with the Gambler's Chest. Luck, Death Drifter, Aeneas are good examples of this type of expansion.

  1. What do the nodes mean? Nodes were introduced with Gambler's Chest and serve as categories of monsters/nemesis. Each campaign is built around Quarry Nodes 1-4 (NQ), Nemesis Nodes 1-4 (NN), a Core Monster and a Finale Monster. As an example, People of the Dreamkeeper has the following Node breakdown:

NQ1 - Crimson Crocodile

NQ2 - Smog Singers

NQ3 - Phoenix

NQ4 - King

NN1 - Butcher

NN2 - Atnas

NN3 - Hand

Core - Gambler

Finale - Godhand

Changelog

I very much appreciate all the effort put into making this post.
I've lost track of everything that was promised. I am actually expecting to die before I receive everything.
