Official Scenario:Ancient Sanctum: Room 3: The Portal

[xraine69]

Room 3: The Portal

Hundreds of spiders crawl along the floor and the walls. A stagnant pool of water fills the center of the room. The smell of death and decay lingers here.

As the last of your enemies fall, you hear one of the drow warriors cry out in its death throes, “Pelloth will avenge us! You will not live to see

daylight again!”

The darkness of this room is overwhelming and disorienting. It crowds in on the light from the stone, and despite your experience with enclosed spaces, you feel a sudden pang of fear—as though the walls are closing in around you. You move to one of the walls, following it wherever it leads, wanting only to get out of the darkness.

As you move forward, you see a familiar purple glow coming from more of the luminescent plants that you encountered earlier. They start off as sparse thin vines, but as you move forward, more and more of the plants entwine with one another until the walls and floors are thick with them, lighting the entire room ahead in a purple glow. In your driving desire to leave the darkness behind, you rush toward the light. As you break upon the room, your heart sinks. The room is filled with more drow and yet another troll.

A drow dressed in dark robes and carrying a staff steps forward. “Kill them!” the drow spits in a hatred-laced voice. “The portal is nearly open. We cannot allow them to interfere.”

Summary:

• Required sets: Battle for the Underdark Masterset and figures
• Goal: Destroy all of your opponent’s figures.
  
• If you just played Ancient Sanctum: Room 2 and you are continuing the campaign, place only Player 1’s figures that survived Room 2. Any wound markers on the surviving Heroes’ Army Cards are removed, and any Treasure Glyphs (excluding Brandar’s Chest) that were held by Player 1’s surviving figures or were power-side up on the battlefield at the end of Room 2 can be placed on any of Player 1’s Army Cards.
  
• If you roll a 1–5, the figure that is attempting to pick up the Treasure Glyph loses the rest of its turn, the Treasure Glyph stays symbol-side up, and Player 2 may take a free turn with the Deepwyrm Drow if there are any still on the battlefield. If you roll a 6 or higher, reveal the Treasure Glyph and place it on the corresponding Army Card for the figure that attempted to pick it up.
• CAMPAIGN CONTINUES: If at least 1 of Player 1’s Heroes survived the battle, you may continue the campaign by playing Ancient Sanctum: Room 4

Ancient Sanctum: Room 4: The Ancient Sanctum

If I remember correctly, this scenario has the troll starting unlevel, next to that 1-hex rock outcrop.

Am I right?

Yes, the Guru posted the correction. Thanks for the catch. I will find that post and make a note of it.

However, if it is dropped and is power-side up on the battlefield, Player

2’s eligible figures can pick it up.

Eligible figures mean all the figures of player 2 or some of them ? In this case, what figures ?

Treasure glyphs can only be picked up by unique(uncommon) heroes.

Pelloth or Feral Troll

Free turn with all the Drows or one of them ?

P.s.
What does "Drow" mean in English ?

Information on this came from one of the designers. That's why it is in the FAQs.
