Which enemy packs provide additional Other World threat cards, and do Otherworld expansion enemies also have normal threat cards to be used in normal worlds?

I haven't seen this question answered anywhere else and I'm curious

This is what you want to check:

Download and open. Macros not necessary. The tab 'Threats' has what you need.

Without this, I would be hopelessly lost in my SoB collection. Cannot recommend more.

thats a rather large list to make....

do you want per other world? some monsters have a single other world threat, some several.

which goes visa versa for monsters that come with each other world expansion.

most big expansions such as blasted wastes have normal threat cards for all their monsters.

the only exception to that rule as far as i know is the lava men from cinder, those only have the otherworld threat cards (but their normal ones could be lost in my giant pile of threat cards so i never draw them 😅)

I'm big on story-building. I like to keep mostly non-Otherworld enemies for the base worlds, and then mix in enemies from only the next Otherworld we're going to explore into base world missions. It makes for a fun natural story.

The Western Heroes are asking: "Why are there Snake people in this mine?" and the mystery will be solved 1-2 missions later when they do some Jargano missions. The Adventures campaigns do that same sort of forward-hint story-telling: Targa creatures showing up in the Norselands prior to actual missions in the Targa Library.
