Many of the rules governing heroic encounter games are detailed in the section on multiplayer games. Additional rules specific to heroic encounters can be found below.

Single-Player Team (the "boss")

In heroic encounters, one team has only one player. This "boss" begins the game with all quests in reach and therefore more power as quests are completed. Additionally, the boss starts with two power plus one per opponent rather than the standard 3 power. The boss draws more cards in each of his draw phases, equal to one plus one additional for each opponent (in a Four-man Heroic Encounter, the boss draws five cards each turn). The boss can't lose the game by running out of cards in his deck -- he reshuffles his discard pile to make a new deck.
