So, I've wanted to pick up Doom for a few years - missed the boat on a decent price. Someone sent me a text offering me a box for $30 with no quest book after I posted an ad online then never responded to me again lol. Sometimes I see the Mini's on eBay... but unlike all the old Space Crusade/HQ/WHQ etc etc games I haven't seen tiles/boards/card scans for these OOP games show up online.. is FFG a bit more active in voicing their dislike for this or has there not been enough interest? .

I managed to score a copy of Descent 1st Ed + Quest guide HC for like $50 last year, but the expansions like Road to Legend which are entirely cardstock/tiles seem to sell for $150+? Maybe they are not worth it anyway IDK, I haven't managed to convince anyone to have a game of Descent yet lol. Doom appeals to me because the OG games had a huge influence on me.. I'll probably just have to wait around for a decent priced copy to show up... I should buy Gears of War though before it goes OOP lol, it looks similar.

I would be happy to scan my Descent 1st E, but I only have a shitty scanner, and it's already punched.. but don't want to get on the wrong side of anyone or bother if they are around somewhere already that I haven't found...

Have you considered getting Descent 2nd Edition and the Conversion Pack? You'll get to play your 1st edition Heroes and monsters that way. The campaign rules are easier to play than Road to Legend, and you'll also be able to get new expansions at non-Ebay prices.
