1.Introduction
------------------------------------------------

Beware, tormented souls of the Hamlet! For The Galaxian Convergence has arrived, and the town will bleed for its sins! What is dead shall rise once more and things forgotten shall be once again.

The fabric between dimensions will become as thin as a paper, and portals will merge the Hamlet with the deepest and foulest locations: The Crypts, The Warrens, The Weald, The Cove and even The Darkest Dungeon.

Monsters, Brigands and Eldritch Horrors will come together as one, joining the uprising in The Galaxian Convergence!

You remember our venerable house, opulent and imperial. It is a festering abomination! I beg you, return home, claim your birthright and deliver our family from the ravenous clutching shadows of the Darkest Dungeon.

Join the townsfolk and defend the Hamlet. Are you up to the challenge?

------------------------------------------------
2.Details
------------------------------------------------

The "Boss Rush" brings up an unique quest, called "The Galaxian Convergence". This quest features all the bosses in the game, with the Crimson Court DLC included, in a huge-sized epic raid.

The quest is very hard, but not impossible to beat. There are curios and items spread around to help the heroes - but be prepared to face all types of enemies. Keep your eyes open and do not thread lightly.

*IMPORTANT*: the available quests only update after a raid completion, so if you install this on an ongoing save file, you must finish a dungeon for this quest to appear.

---------------*SPOILER ALERT*------------------
List of bosses included in the quest:
-The Necromancer
-The Hag
-The Siren
-The Swine King
-The Blind Prophet
-The Brigand Cannon
-The Formless Flesh
-The Drowned Crew
-The Collector
-The Shambler
-The Shrieker
-The Brigand Vvulf
-The Fanatic
-The Crocodilian
-The Baron
-The Viscount
-The Countess
-The Garden Guardian
-The Shuffling Horror
-The Templar Impaler
-The Templar Warlord
-The Mammoth Cyst
-The Heart of Darkness

------------------------------------------------
3.Hints
------------------------------------------------

A) Bring plenty of resources. The quest is incredibly big and you will need them.

B) You will find items inside the quest - including Firewood. So prepare your camping skills beforehand.

C) Choose a stable party: you must be prepared to face all types of enemies, so bring healers, stress healers, backrow strikers and stunners. Versatility is the key word.

D) Unlock more than 4 skills per hero - you might want to swap them in between the bosses.

E) Scouting is key. Bring scouters so you can know where you're going.

F) Know your enemies. Prepare your strategies to beat every boss before facing them.

G) Use the easiest bosses to heal/stress heal yourself, as they do not have a limited number of rounds (as regular enemies have).

H) Prepare for the Crimson Curse, as the DLC monsters may inflict it on you.

I) This is a long run: do not waste your resources on the first bosses. Keep them and use them in the right time.

J) Use your Firewood: it's wise to keep one with you at all times, as a precaution, but as you gather more of them, use them to heal/stress heal/buff your party.

K) There are hints before every boss: curios and items that they left near their room that can identify them.

L) Keep an eye open for the secret rooms: you will find invaluable resources and buffs in there.

M) Use the buffs and curio's stress healing at the right time.

N) There are traps and obstacles within the quest. Prepare for them.

O) You do not need any specific trinket for this raid - so bring generic trinkets that work for all types of enemies and situations.

P) To beat the quest, you need to CLEAR ALL ROOMS. Do not leave uncleared rooms at the start, since it'll be troublesome to return there after.

------------------------------------------------
4.Known Issues
------------------------------------------------

Currently, there are no issues that I'm aware of. If you find anything, please report me. I give you only 3 important warnings:

A) Since "The Galaxian Convergence" is a Town Raid, any MODS that modify the ENEMY LIST of the Vvulf Quest (Wolves at the Door) should be loaded BEFORE this MOD (otherwise my files will be overwritten).

B) The MOD works on any saved file - but to make it work, you need to finish any other dungeon first. And refrain from disabling the MOD while you are inside this quest.

C) As you should do with any MOD, back up your save files before using this. I ran uncountable tests and NEVER had a save file compromissed - but you can never be too cautious.

If you want to upload my MOD elsewhere, however, you must credit me.

6.Changelog
------------------------------------------------

Version 0.1.0 (03/02/2018): Changed the Abbey Shrine buff; now it lasts for 18 turns instead of until camp (consecutive buffs were making everything too easy).

keeps crashing before it starts

一切都好,但最后老祖会带走两名英雄;
地图超超超级大,有难度(6级),很费时间;
高奖励不值得我牺牲整整两名高级英雄,建议使用mod角色或超模技能直接做掉老祖
这一切的牺牲值得吗?

Everything is fine, but in the end, ‘The Heart of Darkness’ will take two heroes;
The map is very very VERY large and time-consuming, and of course, level 6 means much difficult;
High reward is not worth sacrificing two heroes. It is suggested to use mod characters or supermodel skills to kill ‘The Heart of Darkness’ directly.
Is all this sacrifice worth ?

bump, below is the only thing keeping me from getting this mod

Is it possible to take the Heart of Darkness out of the mod or disallow make your choice? I really want to use this mod but the guaranteed chance of two of your heroes dying is pushing me away from using it. Thank you.

This mod ruined my file profile,I can't open the game anymore,jesus.
Everyone who want to try this mod,plz read my word and get ready to delete your saved file.

You must lose 2 heroes in the final mission. So that mean you need to pay 2 heroes for each mission when you fight with Heart of darkness..... That caused the problem

So am I guaranteed to lose 2 heroes at the end of this to the heart?

Feel like you REALLY should have mentioned you can't retreat. I wanted to use this mod to just go back and have a stab here-and-there against various bosses without restarting :steamsalty:. RIP my level 6 shieldbreaker.

Are you kidding me? This is impossible to beat. You will eventually lose 2 heroes for sure, as you also have to fight the heart of darkness. Not to mention the uterly broken fanatic.
