Boss Monster Dice

Having a hard time fighting the Boss Monster Dice?

Here is a quick house rule to use in your Dungeon Attack! games. When rolling the Boss Monster Dice, if a Skull/Defeated Monster symbol comes up on the first roll, you get a free re-roll in an attempt to defeat it. Another Skull on the re-roll and the Boss Monster Die is defeated. With this rule adventurers without a special ability to re-roll or who do not have a magical item, still have a chance to defeat the Boss Monster Die. Even with this rule each monster die may only be re-rolled once per turn.

Thank you Hector DeJesus for coming up with this simple, ingenious rule. We will be using this rule from now on in our games.

I have a question regarding re-rolls and the boss monster.

Let me preface this by assuming that you have only the boss monster before you.

If I roll a skull on the boss monster die that allows me to re-roll or have a magic item or skill that allows a re-roll, do I have to re-roll? The chances are very great that on the re-roll I will get a sword and since this is the only die before me, I will take a pint of damage. Why would I risk this?

Are re-rolls compulsory?

If you do not get a skull on the sceond roll, are you now compelled to obey the new result?

Wilfred, you do not have to re-roll the die- it is not compulsory. In this scenario, you can choose to re-roll the die, but if you do you have to abide by the results of the re-roll. You are correct that I t can be dangerous when you are down to one die as the chances of taking a HIT are 50/50. On the other hand, if your group is playing in a cooperative manner, it can be worth the risk. Some players choose to play it safe while some choose to take risks, it's all up to them and their preferences.
