Take the tour ×  We played our first two rounds of Descent a few
days ago and we (3 heroes) always lost against the Overlord.
The biggest issue we experienced was the summoning of enemies in
direct attack distance (still out of sight, but around a
corner).  We were arguing about whether the Overlord can summon
and move/attack his new summoned fellows in the same round but
we couldn't find anything that clarified this in the rules.  I
have no idea which edition we played, but I think it was 1E...
share|improve this question Not sure what you are looking for
here. There are only three phases for the Overlord player. Start
of Turn, where the Overlord would play cards (some allowing
summoning new monsters, I think), and the Activate monsters
where monsters are activated in groups, and finally End of
Round. monsters in the same group are activated at the same time
(even newly summoned ones), most likely to avoid bookkeeping
nightmares. Page 8 under Overlord Turn Summary. –  user1873 Dec
