The Circle Undone (WWF)
3-handed solo run through The Circle Undone (taboo (Sep-2019); hard difficulty)
Investigators: Norman (W)ithers, (W)illiam Yorick, and (F)inn Edwards
This campaign run is to see just how far Norman Withers' ability to manipulate the encounter deck can go in a 3 setup.
As William will be supported by Norman Withers, there is no need for On the Hunt as he will be specializing in encounter manipulation.
