Description provided by BoardThru on YouTube:

Nemesis: Legacy — Zenith of Ruin Prequel Campaign | Is It a Standalone Expansion? 👽 A prequel campaign set in the dark and terrifying Nemesis universe… but can you play Zenith of Ruin without owning Nemesis: Legacy? In this video, we explore Zenith of Ruin, the prequel campaign expansion featured in the Nemesis: Legacy Gamefound campaign by Awaken Realms. We look at how it fits into the Nemesis timeline, what makes its story different, and what you need to play it. 🚨 IS ZENITH OF RUIN A STANDALONE EXPANSION? The short answer is no — not as a standalone game. Although Zenith of Ruin has its own campaign, rulebook, and dedicated narrative content, it uses Crewmembers and universal components from the Nemesis: Legacy Core Box. The important distinction is that Zenith of Ruin is a separate campaign, but it is not a standalone game. You can play its story before or after the main Nemesis: Legacy campaign, and you don't need to complete the main campaign first. 🩸 WHAT IS ZENITH OF RUIN ABOUT? The story follows the battered crew of the Crown Argo as they attempt to stop the Zenith, an extremist cult connected to the spread of the Intruder infestation throughout the Solar System. But the Zenith have gone beyond simply helping the Intruders spread. Their experiments combine human and Intruder biology, creating terrifying new hybrid threats. Expect another descent into the science-fiction horror, desperate survival, and dangerous encounters that define the Nemesis universe. 🎲 WHAT DOES THE EXPANSION INCLUDE? Zenith of Ruin provides its own campaign materials, including: • A dedicated rulebook and campaign logbook • New maps and binder sheets • New room tiles, cards, wounds, and hazards • Its own narrative campaign and progression • New Intruder races and content designed for compatibility with Nemesis: Retaliation The expansion uses shared components from the Nemesis: Legacy Core Box, so make sure you understand what is included in the relevant pledge before backing. 🔄 CAN YOU REPLAY ZENITH OF RUIN? Zenith of Ruin has its own Recharge Pack available separately. This is designed to restore components permanently altered during the campaign, allowing you to reset it for another playthrough. 💬 JOIN THE DISCUSSION Would you add Zenith of Ruin to your Nemesis: Legacy pledge? Are you more interested in the main Legacy campaign or this darker prequel story? And do you think the need for the Core Box makes this expansion less appealing?
