The Next Big Thing

[jcb231]

What do you all think the next big thing will be? Gencon is coming up, and we have been told of a "big announcement."

Hmmm.....what is it?


NOTE:
If you think it will be siege weapons, just vote for the new castles option...for some reason the poll won't let me edit it.

[Su-Bak-Na]

Wave 5 and Castles purchesable.

[Fallen Templar]

Argh Pirates and Ships Argh :pirate:

[K/H_Addict]

i went with the more logical one: New castle parts. Wave 6+ is possible, but i would rather see more castle stuff

[CupidsArt]

I choose other.

Hasbro will be transfering all Heroscape related creative control to Wizards of the Coast.

That's the first thing I thought when I heard there was going to be "BIG NEWS".

[Kepler]

I don't know. What happened at GenCon last year? Were castles known about prior to GenCon?

[vernz]

i choose wave 5 and castles purchaseable but they could suprise us with something new who knows anythings possible

[netherspirit]

I'm going to go with "other" as well.

I guess we will find out in 2 weeks :) Can't wait!

[Kepler]

i choose wave 5 and castles purchaseable but they could suprise us with something new who knows anythings possible

I think wave 5 and castle will be purchasable at GenCon, but I don't think that is the big news. I think that is expected.

[Wilkerson74]

Hmmm....I had to take a few seconds to think about this....

I doubt they would be tying heroscape into another new license since they havn't released the marvel scape yet, so that ruled out a few choices for me.

Pirate ships would be cool....but that would be surprising to me if that was the big news.

My thoughts were...maybe there will be a new master set coming out?
or maybe heroscape will go hollywood....with an animated tv show??
(why not...stranger things have happened).

those are my random thoughts....can't wait for the official big news.

[noodles]

We all know wave 5 and the castles will be available soon so that can't be a "big surprise" for us....can it?

It's got to be somethign else. I think that they are going to make the generals actually mean something somehow.

[Marsman]

Seige Engines. The next logical step. Anything else is compleatly illogical.

[InfinityMax]

Harry Potter.

[hextr1p]

Seige Engines. The next logical step. Anything else is compleatly illogical.
Co-sign.

Especially with the image on the castle box illustrating a siege type scene (minus the siege weapons, of course). Ballista, siege towers, battering rams, and/or catapults would be very cool!

But whatever the big news is, I'm sure it'll make me go... :shock:

[UranusPChicago]

I think it will be "The Mother of all Others"...

[spiderM9]

:pirate: aaargh! :pirate:

[Finrod]

Seige Engines. The next logical step. Anything else is compleatly illogical.

Why would you need siege engines when you have Soulborgs?

[ortimus]

I am hoping for the Generals. I think that they would ad a really cool dynamic to the game, especially if their specials applied to having all the same army.

[markwars]

I voted for the new terrain option. Here's why...

There hasn't been a TRU exclusive yet this year. Perhaps this year's lava set is something like Jungle or Swamp or whatever.

Craig mentioned that his favorite terrain hadn't been released yet. We've already seen this year's large terrain pack in the form of tundra. Last year we got one big set (RttFF) and one small set (HLD). This year will be the same.

[yagyuninja]

I agree with markwars.

[noodles]

Siege Engines! I change my vote! But I think Generals will matter eventually.

[ninthdoc]

Ah, but he did say, "released" didn't he? He did not say revealed. He could have been talking about castles and teasing us all... :evil:

[markwars]

BUT...if there is an exclusive Hasbro will say a lot less about it.

[allskulls]

But a castle is not terrain...wall walk = road. I think it is something all new like a rainbow bridge fot Thor to come riding in on.

[ninthdoc]

Um, allskulls, anything that is a part of the board is terrain in miniature wargaming. Somebody correct me here, if I'm wrong.

Ruins, trees, castles, etc. all terrain.

[markwars]

You would have to ask Craig what his definition of terrain is. :P

[ninthdoc]

While I don't dispute what markwars said, let's face it, the castle has walls that can serve as "blocking terrain".

[allskulls]

Just never thought of a building as terrain but I could be wrong :shrug:

Nontheless, I doubt it's a tease about castles. Didn't they have a poll on the site about terrain? I don't frequent "the site" much.

[Doc_Savage]

I voted Star Wars, but I also think it could be Utgar's Castle.........

[markwars]

Utgar's Castle....that's pretty cool. And way better than Luigi's Mansion.

[allskulls]

I voted Star Wars, but I also think it could be Utgar's Castle.........
That would be sweet...I'll call a castle terrain if I have to :D

[LilNewbie]

From LilNewbie's Codex of Gaming:

Terrain: Any item that is within the confines of stated playing area that is used to represent buildings, trees, rocks, hills, mountains, swamps, lakes, rivers, tundra, gullies, creeks, plains, grass, ruins, statues, bulwarks, fences, cultivated farmland, fjords, walls, towers, gates, doors, warmadillos (just seeing if you are still reading) or any combination of above listed items.


:D

*Snarf**Point*

Newb.

[allskulls]

What about the fortress door, Newb? Is a destructable object considered terrain? Just thinking about the warmadillo comment...when Sudema turns someone into stone they should remain on the board and become terrain. That's a good house rule...just paint the figure to look like stone so you won't forget (I suggest spray paint so play won't be halted too much).

[toddrew]

Chose 'new castle types' - I think (hope :) ) they develop the castle line, though I don't know that they will - it is kind of limiting in the 'battle of all time' sense.

But they just seem like fun, both to build and play.

[ninthdoc]

Yes, terrain can be destructible/destroyed.

[ultradoug]

whats next? update maybe?

[boom]

I voted "wave 6 and beyond." We'll probably have another "shelf" to look at on speculate on for a few months.

[noodles]

Um, allskulls, anything that is a part of the board is terrain in miniature wargaming. Somebody correct me here, if I'm wrong.

Ruins, trees, castles, etc. all terrain.

I would agree with this.

[noodles]

Didn't Rob & Craig mention the possibility of a Marro Hive/Castle. Or other castles in general?

[Joah]

I voted "wave 6 and beyond." We'll probably have another "shelf" to look at on speculate on for a few months.

I thought so too boom, but now I have some doubts. I thought we'd see wave 6 for sure. Now I'm a little less convinced.

I mean, Thora is going to be out in just a couple of weeks, and we still have seen a card on any of these.

I just really want to see another Wave before the end of the year.

[Jandars_Hope]

It would be good if there was another wave before the end of the year! But i really think it would be cool if they released the Valkyrie Generals as figures, wouldn't that be great! But i'd be satisfied with another shelf for wave 6 and 6.5! Hopefully kee-mo-shi!?

[Agent Minivann]

I think it is either Utgar's Castle, to hit (online) stores around Gencon 2007, the unreleased terrain (not castle in my opinion), or the allsurprising "other".

Pirates wouldn't be very big news in my book, but the ships would. I don't think that this is very likely, however.

I'll call Star Wars my darkhorse. It could happen, but I don't think that it is going to happen this soon after Marvel. Really, Marvel is just this years "shelf" at this point. We have a price, SKU, release rough date, and a whole lot of qualitative data, but it is still just fuel for speculation until we have some quantitative data.

I don't think castle/wave 5 for sale is really in the spirit of "big news". I don't think Wave 6 teasers will be there either.

GI Joe and Transformers are possibilities, but only after SW. I think SW is the bigger franchise for the next license. Terrain and characters are more universally appealing than either of these would be.

Swamp, could be the terrain, but I'm not sure. I'm not really sold on swamp terrain, so I could just be biased.

Generals...hmmmm...I'm not sure on this one. I can see it happening. It is marketed for the inner 8 year old in all of us. I think that generals would be juvenile in some sense, so I can see this happening. At the same time, the 8 to 12 year old thing is in many ways a marketing only frame of mind. How many 8 to 12's are going to go to Gencon looking for the big HS news? Not the context I'm thinking of, so I say no to generals.

[jcb231]

We all know wave 5 and the castles will be available soon so that can't be a "big surprise" for us....can it?

It's got to be somethign else. I think that they are going to make the generals actually mean something somehow.

Yeah. I included it as an option, even though it would be a huge letdown if that was the extent of the big news.

[GaryLASQ]

HeroScape: The Movie :)

directed by: Paul Verhoven.
oh wait, this game is for kids. darn.

i bet the Generals will be the last planned expansion we see before the line goes into hibernation, temporarily or permanently.

[jcb231]

Siege Engines! I change my vote! But I think Generals will matter eventually.

Go ahead and vote for the Castle category, if you think siege weapons will show up....I tweaked the name.

I thought castles were this year's big terrain set, and tundra was the small one?

Anyway....seems doubtful to me that TRU would want another exclusive...they have shelves CLOGGED with last year's lava.

Harry Potter.

Sadly, Mattel owns the Harry Potter toy license. Lego has a license too, but I don't think Hasbro has anything going on with the bespectacled wizard. Sigh...I would like some Dementors though.



I wondered if a HS interactive game of some sort, for Nintendo DS or such, could be the big news, but then I reasoned that such a thing would likely not be shown at Gencon, but would have been mentioned at e3.

[Jandars_Hope]

I really hope it is actually BIG news and not news that isn't that big and is just being hyped up!

[InfinityMax]

You know, Wizards did a Harry Potter card game. And that's Hasbro. So Harry Potter might still be possible.

Only I really just said Harry Potter because that damned kid is on every other product in existence. Hell, I drive a Harry Potter car. I mean, it doesn't have Harry Potter actually on it anywhere, but it's poorly-made and unreliable, so I figured it was part of the Harry Potter merchandising.

[Agent Minivann]

HeroScape: The Movie :)

You may be onto something. There are all those atrocious Barbie CG movies that keep coming out. There are Bionicles movies. Maybe there is a HS CG movie that is in the works. I'm sure if it was something along these lines it could have flown under the radar this long. If the target market IS 8-12 year olds, this makes some decent sense. Who knows, it could even be good. Mainframe, the company that does the Barbie drivel, actually has some good stuff to their name. It could be good, but I still don't think this is what was meant when he said "big news".

Of course, he could have been misquoted. He could have said "big nudes" referring to the HS stuff that actually is marketed to adults. Jotun and Krug's red light district honeys.

[philthephreak]

I'm not sure what the next *BIG* thing is, but isn't it about time we got a Samurai LEADER? Anyone heard anything about this possibility?

I don't surf the boards here a ton so forgive me if this has already been discussed or should be in another thread for specific units we'd like to see...

Here he is, I found him for you. He's the one on the left:

[Norin]

I voted G.I. Joe and transformers, mostly because HASBRO has the IP (Intellectual Property) for the line, would have to pay no liscensing costs and can take advantage of the visibility of the new sigma six line.

I also suspect that WOTC will be taking over the future develpment of the line in terms of promotion and tournament support.

I sincerely doubt that STar Wars will be announced this year as they are already developing one liscensed product and it does not make much sense since they are already producing a Star Wars minatures game (WOTC)

just my two cents....

Best regards

God I hope transformers doesn't suck....

I hope it is more castles or terain but they will most likely show their new more crapy Master Set :evil:

[noodles]

Are you referring to the Marvel set?

[ultradoug]

castlescape.

[markwars]

This poll is amazingly divided. :shock:

[jaques]

Since Craig said his favorite terrain isn't out yet, I started pondering, and was struck with this idea:

Marro Hive.

[CornPuff]

I bet the big idea is seige units.

Or the technodrome terrain kit...

I just saw a bit about it on one of those "entertainment" shows. I was looking for some glimmer of hope, but I didn't see anything substantial. The bozos are keeping a lid on the appearance of the robots, appearantly.

Marro Hive, hmmm...

[feekonea]

You know what I really hope would be it, over above everything else? Is that hasbro annouces that their products will hit stores on their first release date, not their 2nd, 3rd, or 4th. :D That would really be a big surprise.

[Jandars_Hope]

Any news atm would be good IMO! :tumble:

[Hahnarama]

The next big thing?????

could it be..........


Gen Con! :gencon: in

3 d, 10 hrs, 16 min!

[jcb231]

Wow, this is the most split poll ever......

[markwars]

Which means that about 85% of us are wrong no matter what it is. :2cents:

[Smeagol10041]

Pirates and ships would be cool but i rweally dout it. Maybe it will be the Generals...

[noodles]

It's funny....I've been listening to people talk about pirates for 2 years now as possible expansions. The thought of pirates doesn't do anything for me....am I alone here?

[Hahnarama]

It comes down to the classic discussion

Pirates vs Ninjas.

I would rather them focus more on terrain expansions and chill out on new figures for now.

[jcb231]

It's funny....I've been listening to people talk about pirates for 2 years now as possible expansions. The thought of pirates doesn't do anything for me....am I alone here?

Yes, you're alone. :-P

I kid, but it does surprise me that any red-blooded male gamer wouldn't want Pirates! PIRATES! AAAAAAAARRRRRRRR!!!!!!

I would rather them focus more on terrain expansions and chill out on new figures for now.

I'm the opposite. I like terrain expansions every "point five" wave, but I'm all about the figures. That's the excitement for me. Castles are interesting and look cool and all, and I'll be buying some, but the Wave Five figures are what really get me going. I say bring on more figures.

As for terrain, I'd be down with an "Evil Castle" of some sort, swamp terrain and bogs or tarpits, quicksand, more ruins, and some deciduous trees. Maybe some large rocks too, like desert red rocks. So that's basically enough for three or four packs....Evil Castle, Desert, Swamp, Forest Ruins. After that I'm not sure what more I'd really like to see in new land.

[Agent Minivann]

Count me as one that isn't sold on pirates, noodles. I'm more for dwarves, but I wouldn't be the least upset if I never get them either.

Speaking of Dwarves....do we have any small characters yet or is Medium still the smallest?

[Ursas]

Add another to the list of PAP...people against pirates. I just dont understand the fascination.

[Fallen Templar]

I want a Vampire, followed by Dwarves, then pirates.
Also national talk like a pirate day is september 13.

[Guado]

Count me as one that isn't sold on pirates, noodles. I'm more for dwarves, but I wouldn't be the least upset if I never get them either.

Ditto, Pirates? eh. Dwarfs would be very nice.

But I think the most logical suprise would be another castle.

Why would a new figure be big news? has to be terrain

[Jandars_Hope]

I hope so. I'd be happy with another styled fortress but i wouldn't mind seeing something else in the way of terrain (but i don't know what?! :D )

[Thor]

It would be cool to be able to purchase wave 5 and castles at GenCon for those going, but they are supposedly shipping out in a few weeks anyways. That doesn't seem like BIG NEWS to me, especially for the thousands of HS fans not attending GenCon.

We are pretty much expecting to see wave 6 at GenCon 06, no? New waves are always being shown off at conventions so why would wave 6 being shown be considered big news? New waves are cool, but by no means big news at this point imo. For that reason wave 6 doesn't seem like BIG NEWS either.

Star Wars, Transformers, and G.I. Joes (btw G.I. Joe would make for a pretty dull HS game imo) all seem like possabilities, but I dunno. I just don't see them releasing another spin off when we don't even have the Marvelscape available yet. They don't even know how well a HS spin off would do. BIG NEWS? Possibly. Likely? I don't think so.

That leaves pirate ships, new terrain (swamps), new castle types, the Generals, and other. Pirate ships and Generals.. maybe. I think the more likely possability is new terrain/castles though. New terrain isn't near as common as figures coming out. New swamps or a Marro Hive would be incredible. The fact that Craig mentions his favorite terrain type isn't out yet furthers my suspicions. Obvilously some sort of new terrain is in development and/or coming out soon if Craig has played on it and it is his favorite...

How Big the 'Big news' is depends on their definition of 'BIG! It might be wave 6, which would be good news for everyone but not 'BIG news' for most! Plus, I too am intrigue as to what Craigs favourite terrain is going to be?! :?

hey Noodles brah,
how about figures of over the hill rock stars?
HA HA HA HA HA (you know I am just kidding)
honestly, who wouldn't want a David Lee Roth unique hero who spends the entire game trying to get a piece of Realin, weilding a blow dryer and a teasing comb? his special attack could be something like "Super Ego : DLR never ever notices anyone but himself, roll d20. if DLR rolls a 14 or higher, he thinks that the attacking figure is a mirror reflection of himself and takes all damge from attacking figure"

oh, hey, how about a John Bonham unique? armed with a bottle of whiskey and a couple of drumsticks.
special attack: choke on....well, never mind.
you got the idea.
something tells me that these will NOT be the next big thing.

We need dwarves.

Well.....we got to see Wave Six (no stats yet of course) and the new flag bearers. Also got all Wave Five stats. Also got an exclusive. Wave Five was purchaseable for the blink of an eye, along with castles....some might have been held for tomorrow, but it's a gamble.


And a DWARF was in Wave Six!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey, I was thinking,
how about a Alice Cooper with his own head in his hands?
special power: give up rock for golf! if Alice rolls 15 or higher on 20 sider he quits the game to caddy for Terry Bradshaw or some other celebrity tournament side-show.

and then we get
Sebastian Bach!
special power: gilmore Girls dynamic attack! if sebastian is adjacent to an attacking figure and rolls more shields than they roll skulls, Sebastian delivers hokey 80s references until the other player gives up and quits.

we ain't even looked at the new expansions:
Bea Arthur and the Golden Girls (unique heroes), the cast from Star Trek Next Gen (unique squad), Micheal J. Fox and the guys from Back to the Future (commons) and also Huey Lewis and the News (commons).
hey, its hip to be square!
later!

What about a BA Barracus! With a backfire special - if he rolls a 19 or 20, he accidentally drinks the milk with the sleeping mixture inside and forfeits the round.

I was thinking more along the lines of:

Special Attack: Low on IQ, High on RPMS
If Sebastain Bach is adjacent to any figure, that figure goes insane due to Bas' lack of intelligence, arrogance and immature diva act and commits suicide immediately.

Eat it Guado It was Dwarf :D

special power: Marry washed up dancer: David rolls d 20, if 10 or below, David marries skanky out-of-work stripper-type and gets her to do splits on the hoods of Jaguar XJS cars. chick goes on after divorce to become a drunken sod, and she beats husband with italian shoes. David takes 1 wound marker for bad decision. this can only be used once per game.

At the time.....Tawny Kitane was FINE. That's a bad decision I could live with minus the marriage/skanky out of work stripper part.

[primal]

yes, you are correct Noodles.
tawny was smokin' hot, but come on. did you see her lose her addled mind on "the surreal life"? that was awesome TV, my friend.
now-a-days I am thinking more along the lines of......well, I don't know.
for Skank-a-tude, you can't beat Paris Hilton with a stick.
for Heat, I still love the new Mrs. Kid Rock.
those would still be some awesome army figures.

now, let us see how we can wrangle someone into giving all who attend NCScapefest '06 a Sir Hawthorne!

[noodles]

I think we can make NCScapefest a reality - we have the technology. We can make it bigger, better....totally rebuilt from scratch.

[bad_calvin]

oh good gawd no.. don't even say that.
shame on you.

I choose other.

Hasbro will be transfering all Heroscape related creative control to Wizards of the Coast.

That's the first thing I thought when I heard there was going to be "BIG NEWS".

[markwars]

Has anyone from Hasbro said "when we mentioned Big News at Comic Con this is what we were talking about"?
