Welcome back to another journey in this amazing journey trough Dunwich! This time we entering the museum to look for a mysterious book called "The Necronomicon". This brand new article will help you survive this horror story in the museum after hours. 

Gather all cards from the following encounter sets:

• The Miskatonic Museum
• Bad Luck
• Sorcery
• The Beyond
• Chilling Cold
• Locked Doors

Put one of the two Administration Office locations and one of the two Security Office locations into play at random. Remove the other versions of Administration Office and Security Office from the game. Then, put the Museum Entrance and Museum Halls locations into play. Each investigator begins play at the Museum Entrance.

Set the 6 “Exhibit Hall” locations aside as a separate “Exhibit Deck.” To do this, perform the following:

• Shuffle the Exhibit Hall (Restricted Hall) and 2 other random Exhibit Hall locations together to form the bottom 3 cards of the Exhibit Deck, unrevealed side faceup.
• Then, place the other 3 Exhibit Hall locations on top, in a random order. All 6 cards of the Exhibit Hall deck should be showing only the unrevealed side, so that the players do not know which Exhibit Hall is the Exhibit Hall (Restricted Hall).

Set the following cards aside, out of play:

• Harold Walsted
• Adam Lynch
• The Necronomicon (Olaus Wormius Translation)
• Shadow‐spawned.

Shuffle the remainder of the encounter cards to build the encounter deck.

Exile rules

Some player cards in The Dunwich Legacy cycle must be exiled when they are used. When a card is exiled, it is removed from the game and returned to your collection. During campaign play, a card that has been exiled must be purchased again with experience points (between scenarios) if you wish to re‐include it in your deck. If exiling 1 or more cards would reduce your deck below your investigator’s deck size, when purchasing cards between scenarios, you must purchase cards so that a legal deck size is maintained (when purchasing cards in this manner, you may purchase level 0 cards for 0 experience cost until a legal deck size is reached).

The Void

Some cards in this scenario reference an area called “the void.” The void is an out‐of‐play area next to the act and agenda deck which the Hunting Horror enemy can enter and leave via card effects. While the Hunting Horror is in the void, it is considered out of play and cannot be affected by player cards or investigator actions.

PRO TIP: The most of us can forget some of the rules of the game. That's because there are many many and many rules. Not only the encounter cards have their own rules but also the player cards. So it's easy to oversee or forgetting some of the rules. But this one is really important for this scenario. Listen up:

• If the agenda Threshold is reached you only advance when it's the time. So in the third window of the mythos phase this will happen.
• Then this is also really importent that ALL THE DOOM leaves play. Included the doom on the Hunting horror and on player cards.  

These are the two office's. One of those will land on the table and the other one will leave play. 

Office 1 / 1 shroud and 1 clue per investigator. You must have 5 resource to investigate ad this location. The 1 shroud is not bad at all! But the 5 resources are gone before you can say Arkham horror. So it's better you keep in mind that if you want some (almost free) clues that you must go first to this location before dropping your cards on the table. 

Office 2 / The second one is the same principle, but it has 2 shroud and 2 clues per investigator. 

Now let's have a look at the security office's.

Office 1 / 3 shroud and 2 clues per investigator. If you are out of clues and want to grab an exhibit card fast. Then this is your change! But wait! before you will spend 2 actions to draw an exhibit card. Let's not forgot that this action will cost you 2 actions and from our perspective you better get out there and getter clues! But this is still Arkham Horror and if you don't have the time or you running out of clues this is your change. 

Office 2 / The better one of the two. 2 shroud and 1 clue per investigator. The same rules as apple for this card. 

Here is where the magic happens for this card game. The journal setup. But for this scenario you must choose between the scenario's. Called The Dr. Armitage's fate. You can get 2 options and that has all the do with your ending in the House always wins scenario. 

Check Campaign Log. If the investigators were unconscious for several hours: Read Armitage’s Fate 1.

Otherwise, skip to Armitage’s Fate 2.

Armitage’s Fate 1: You are more than a little rattled by your experiences in the university and the Clover Club. You’re not sure what to make of whoever—or whatever—was after Rice and Morgan. Worried about Dr. Armitage, you swiftly make your way back to his home. When you arrive, you find that the latches of his front door have been busted open, and his living area and study have been ransacked. Dr. Armitage is nowhere to be found. Searching his home, you find a journal the intruders didn’t steal tucked beneath several other documents in the bottom drawer of Armitage’s desk. The journal appears to be written in a strange language you cannot decode, using a script you’ve never seen in your entire life. Fortunately, it seems Dr. Armitage had already gone through the trouble of translating it into English. Apparently, it belongs to one “Wilbur Whateley.”

The journal—along with Armitage’s many notes—tells a startling tale, one you would scarcely believe had it not been for your harrowing experiences earlier tonight...

• In your Campaign Log, record that Dr. Henry Armitage was kidnapped.
• Each investigator earns 2 bonus experience as reading Wilbur’s journal gives them insight into the hidden world of the mythos.
• The story continues in Scenario II: The Miskatonic Museum.

Armitage’s Fate 2: When you arrive at Dr. Armitage’s home in Southside, you find him sitting at his desk, pale-faced and sweating with worry. He is grateful to you for searching for his colleagues, but he doesn’t look relieved. With a long pause, he straightens his glasses and explains:

“I’m afraid I must apologize. There’s something I didn’t mention to you earlier.” Dr. Armitage then spins a tale you would scarcely believe had it not been for your harrowing experiences earlier that night...

• In your Campaign Log, record that the investigators rescued Dr. Henry Armitage. Any one investigator may choose to add Dr. Henry Armitage to his or her deck. This card does not count toward that investigator’s deck size. It can be found in the Armitage’s Fate encounter set. 
• The story continues in Scenario II: The Miskatonic Museum.

Then there is another thing: (we sum up some stuff that can happens)

• If you have cheated then you must put 1 Elder thing (gas mask) into the chaos bag. 
• You can rescue Dr. Morgan but he also can being kidnapped. 
• You can have the gang behind you along the way further in the campaign, or they wanna hurt you. 
• Last but not least, you can suffer a trauma. 

We will not tell you all on how to get these stuff because of the many different endings (resolutions) and you will have to do your own digging around in Arkham. Thats the best experience. We will help you get along but we don't drop everything on a silver plate for you. 

These are the two locations you will see first. Every player begins in the Museum entrance. 

Museum entrance / 3 shroud and 2 clues. If you are In this location we cannot gain resources so your first turn will be limited with your 5 resources you start with. It's also one of the location to drop out of. For an action you can forget about the book and get the hell out of there. But you probably would know thats not an option!

Museum halls / If you managed to get bypass the entrance this is the location you will land in. It's has 2 shroud and zero clues. Thats a bummer, but with the clues you and your fellow players collect from the Entrance location (if you had done that part we assume) than this location comes in handy. For 1 action and 1 clue you can draw a card from the exhibit deck. These exhibit locations will give you extra locations to explore and must of them will have victory points! Hell yeah!

This is called the exhibit deck. You will need to be in the museum halls to get these cards. You must spend an action and a clue to draw one of these cards. No let's have a look what's on those cards. 

Hall of the dead / 3 shroud and 2 clues per player. Forced effect, is you fail investigating at this location take 1 horror. 

Egyptian hall / 3 shroud again and again 2 clues per player. The same as the one before only you will lose an action. This is probably worse than losing a horror. Actions are worth a lot more than your own sanity. 

Nature exhibit / 4 shroud and 1 clue per player. The toughest of them all. 3 shroud is probably easy to overcome but 4 is above average and not a lot of clues you will/can find here. The worst is that is you move to this location you will lose 2 cards. But because of this awesome article you now know you must skip this one. 

Athabaskan exhibit / 1 shroud and zero clues. AUGH! You lost all your actions and you need to end your turn. Thats a really bad situation. There's only one positive thing, you will get +2 agility to shake of the hunting Horror. 

Medusa exhibit / 2 shroud and 1 clue per player. An easy one. But beware if you manage to lose investigating this location you must discard an asset you controle! One of the easiest ones but with a horrible outcome is you didn't manage to succeed in the skill test. 

Agenda NR. 1 - Restricted Access

Dr. Armitage has given the university’s Latin translation of The Necronomicon to his associate, Harold Walsted, the curator of the Miskatonic University Museum. Worried that someone might still be after the book, you have gone to the museum to recover it.

This whole scenario spins around a book called "the necronomicon" and was given to Harold Walsted. Now Walsted is the curator of the museum and you and your fellow players are afraid that the book will be stolen. Now you set off to the museum to collect the back for Dr. Armitage. 

Forced effect: when the hunting horror enters play place attach the spawned shadow to it. When this card is already in play put a resource token on it. This token will not be removed if it goes back to the void. It has a doom threshold of 5. 

Act NR. 1 - Finding a way inside 

Unfortunately, the entrance to the Museum is kept locked at this late hour. A security guard is visible through the building’s front windows, oblivious to his surroundings. Perhaps you can find a way to get his attention and convince him to let you in.

You are late and the museum is already closed. You can't get in. Collect 2 clues to advance. But there is another way to get in the building. 

Each investigator begins in at the Museum entrance obviously because it's closed at night. At the entrance you can't get any resources so you will have to stick with your starting resources of 5. If you don't want to mess around at the closed museum here is also the change to back down and resign. But he you want a challenge go ahead! The entrance has a shroud of 3 and 2 clues. Just the amount you needed to get in the museum. 

But wait there is another road you can take. You can smash the door down! Test 5 fight to brake down the door. If you succeed advance to act NR 1B. You all thinking is that wise to break in????

Agenda NR. 2A - Shadows deepen

The shadows in the museum grow and become darker. As the shadows lengthen and shift, they begin to suggest the sinewy body of an uncanny creature darting at the periphery of your awareness...

The same forced affect is still active as like agenda NR. 1A. But it has a higher doom threshold of 7. Keep in mind that the hunting horror also gathers doom tokens by encounter cards. So this will be over quicker then you think. So beware!

Act NR. 2A - Night at the museum

The Necronomicon is being kept in a Restricted Hall somewhere in the museum. Adam barely knows his way around, and gives a startled jump at every creak of the old building. "I just started here last week," he explains. "What sort of trouble did you say was going on?" You haven’t the heart to give him the full story.

If you play it safe and you managed to advance with the amount of clues you needed then this act card will be your next objective. But the same goes for this card. If you managed to get to an Exhibit restricted hall advance. 

Agenda NR. 3A - In every shadow

The creature in the museum grows larger and more terrifying with each passing moment. Its body slithers from shadow to shadow, every corner of every room a potential hiding place for the hideous beast.

That's funny, the same forced effect us agenda number 1 and 2. Also with a 7 doom threshold. 

Act NR. 3A - Searching for the Tome 

Somewhere in this area is Olaus Wormius’s Latin translation of the Necronomicon. You must find it and escape while you can!

You reached the location where the tome is. Clear out all the clues from the location and advance. That's an easy task, if it wasn't for the Hunting horror to lurk around. If you manage.......

Our work has finished and it was a hell of a creepy museum. We hope you all enjoyed reading this new article! Hopefully you will manage and use the PRO tips we gave you.
