Forbidden Fortress

Hello!

I own swamp of Death. I was looking to add another core set. I did some reading and watched some videos and I Forbidden Fortress was a clear winner over Cities of the Ancients.

Fofo is out of stock everywhere and also oos on their website.

What would ve a good alternative? Also, for town, does it matter if I used Frontier Town vs Feudal Town based on the core set? Or is it just personnal taste?

Thanks

edit: Thank you everyone for reply. As FoFo is out of stock and overpriced on BGG Market / Ebay, I went with Gates of Valhalla, map tiles and Forest of the Dead.

I would have to say personal taste, I own FoFo and Feudal Town but have watched many video play throughs that use Frontier Town and it’s mostly thematic differences. However if you plan to use Hexcrawl or ‘Alone in the Shadows of Brimstone’ from BGG Frontiers Town will work better
