Does Timber Peak seem worth it? and Concerns on the L-shaped Boards

[StayPuft]

The other thing to remember is that Timber Peak is not just an expansion. It is what is known as a "Stand Alone Expansion." This means it can be used as an expansion to the original game, but it can also be played by itself as a completely separate game.

So, they may actually enjoy playing Timber Peak for a change, as it goes back to the basics a bit, but still also adds some cool new stuff.

I would also agree with mqstout. One of the cool things about the expansions is you can easily pop each of them in and out whenever you want. Use which ones you want, don't use those you don't. Then, the next day, you can change your mind and easily integrate different ones and remove others.

Plus, unless the scenario specifically calls for any of them, you don't really even have to use any of them if you want. So, you can mix and match however you want. If your gaming group wants a little break from all the complexity, you can make sure to play scenarios that don't involve any (or too many) of the expansions and make it more simple. Conversely, for the more die hard LNOE fans, you can take any scenario and add whatever you want into it (though, usually you would want to be sure to at least balance out the two sides if you do).
