The Cult of the Rune expansion pack is a whole new adventure set in the Runebound land of Terrinoth! The Dwarves of Forge have uncovered something best left hidden.

The Cult of the Rune adventure variant replaces some elements of the Rise of the Dragon Lords adventure found in the base Runebound game, creating an entirely new game experience! It includes 30 new adventure cards and a set of cardboard tokens.
