Thoughts Of Possible Figures!

[Jandars_Hope]

I don't know whether or not this has been done before, but i'm gonna post this anyway because i love these sort of topics:
What New Figures would you like to see in possible new sets?

-I'd like to see, firstly, more einar characters cos he really doesnt have to best army!
-Pirates (AARRGH! a captain hero and a swashbuckling crew!)
-A Mummy/Living dead Squad (after sudema was released i though she should have an undead army...maybe with a power to suck the life out of people eg.when attacking, if rolls a 11+ then it puts 1 marker on the opponent and takes one off sudema or another friendly figure?!)
-Wizards and Witches (i know we have morsbane but u can never have too many wizards)
-Baby Dragons? (a maybe a squad of baby dragons?! I LOVES ME DRAGONS!)
-Native American Indians (we got cowboys so it makes sense)
-A Gorilla General (for the Gorillanators)
-Better Archers (the ones at the moment tend to lack much att./def.)

Well thats all i can think of at the mo...but post ur ideas, cant wait to hear them!

[MBSowards]

I like this post...but you want an archer better than Syvarris. Hold on and let that sink in for me for a minute...

Okay...it didn't. If there's an archer released better than Syvarris, then he'd likely be the most powerful guy in the game. Too powerful probably. If you need to use Syvarris' defense for something, chances are you aren't using him right. And, if he ever defends for what is written on his card, you definitely aren't using him right. +1 for elevation.

[Jandars_Hope]

ok i may have exaggerated a little...i mean come on im in the uk and its like 11.15pm...im tired!
And don't take no offence about Syvarris cos when i first got the master set he was my fav.character!

Oh ive forgotten what i was gonna add....*thinking*....*gone*

[shakey_snake]

Euro-centrism for the win!

[reapersaurus]

I don't know whether or not this has been done beforenope - never been done before :roll:

Aloow me my grumpy-man jibe there :grumble: - cuz this will be a 15 page thread full of ideas that mostly have been mentioned already soon enough.... :lol:

[Runehardt]

I WANT PIRATES!!!

AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!

How about some Nymphs???

[KeeperOfPeace]

Who cares if it has been discussed before. Sometimes people get new ideas.

Me, I really want pirates and more elves. And orcs since I can't get any! MECHS would be sweet!

[Jandars_Hope]

WHOO! i'm so sorry if this sort of thing bores you and i only said 'i dont know whether this thread had been done before' to be polite cos i only joined 3 days ago!.....so sarcasm aside, if you dont like this sort of thread then don't bother looking at it or posting and wait for it to fade into the background or until it gets closed!!!!

And shakey_snake i don't really understand ur comment either?

Aaahhh I see you have met some of our other scapers, aren't they fun :bang: Anyways this is a good topic and I say welcome to the boards JH, if you have any questions about things let us know.. good to have you aboard.

Anyways I do want pirates, I think the water thing has really not been used at all, possible even a group of mermen or Atlanteans. We also have no four legged mech units so to speak. Bionic wolves for the Dw's or such. I really want many more giants and trolls, Krug is by far my favorite looking character and I would love a few more like him.

[KeeperOfPeace]

Oh! My bad. Forgot to welcome you. Sorry about that Jandars. Welcome to HS and the scapers website. Awesome to see players over seas. I am over in the U.S.

I agree, why is it whenever a new guy asks a question that so many older members refer to it as useless, that they have the need to post in the thread telling them how pointless and what a waste of time it is. Just wondering

[allskulls]

JH - I like your mummy idea...sucking life to heal Sudema. She could use that. They would probably need to be unique though.

How about some modern day characters? So far I think we only have Micro Corp. Who else is there?

I'm thinking an ultimate fight champion...yeah a cage fighter...named Kip.

Seriously, what units can derive from right now, 2006? (from earth)

[reapersaurus]

why is it that newer people don;t allow older members to voice ANY opinion that doesn;t fill them with warm fuzzies? :roll:
In the time you complain about me posting once mentioning how this is natural to be speculated on a HS fan site, you guys spend 2, 3 and more posts complaining about it.

Here's a hint - I have an opinion.
I voiced it.
Get over it.

And Pirates and Nymphs go together SO well, they should be in a pack together.
Or is that Nymphos? :lol:

[Hex_Enduction_Hour]

And Pirates and Nymphs go together SO well, they should be in a pack together.

Working title:

Nymphos and Seamen?

[Runehardt]

How about clowns and mimes?
Lawyers and Judges?
Hookers and Pimps?
Mermaids and... Manatees?



I do think they need to make a boat. I'm working on a raft with a ferryman to take you across a large body of water.

Maybe some aliens to fight the MIB?

[dlaw008]

This is always a fun and popular topic, no matter if anything new comes out. That's probably why there will soon be 15 pages of it! :wink:

Historical: I would vote for Pirates. Celts might be nice (think Boadicea, not Alistair). I guess it would be way too controversial, but nazis for Utgar would be fun to juxtapose against the AE.

Fantasy: Obviously, Dwarves! Undead so that there would be someone for Sudema to be queen of. I wouldn't mind some sort of meso-american birdmen. A Conan style barbarian hero. Goblins or some other Small creature.

Sci-Fi: I would like them to flesh out the Omicrons more. Martians a la Mars Attacks. More Primadons. I guess I'm really not that big on Soulborgs.

[Teamski]

I see that you met Reaper. Reaper, meet JH! :poke:


-Ski

[feekonea]

I also want pirates, as well as more magicians, a orimicon (sp) sniper leaader dude, and some leader for the gorillanators

[MBSowards]

Whoa whoa whoa guys. I will be the voice of reason. THIS IS HEROSCAPE, where everyone is friends until they get on the battlefield.

Last time I checked this was a message board, and not the battlefield. So until my Morsbane takes away your Thorian Speed let's all just be friendly here.

Don't like a topic, don't voice your opinion. Someone voices their opinion in your topic and you don't like what they said? Ignore them.

Let's promote lovescape, not hatescape.

[TheRealQ]

Nymphos and Seamen?

:rofl: ohhhh...you are soooo bad

[TheRealQ]

Fresh Meat?! Oh...I mean welcome. This is going to take me a dozen posts just listing a little bit at a time.

First off, I want to see more of the Norse mythology.

More giants...possibly ones focused on Fire and Frost
Fafnir...although Mimring may already be based off him
Dark Elves
Elf Queen
Dwarves
Norns
and a slew of Beasts

I'd like to see some of the Anglican twists off the same lore.

Faeries
Sprites
Boggins

Then some Arthurian legend king of stuff.

Mounted knights...as heroes and squads
Paladin
Wizards
Druids
Green Knight
White Stag

Celtic legend.

Master of the Hunt
Elementals

Greek/Roman

Odesseus or ancient mariner
Hydra
Hercules type hero
Titans

more to come

[K/H_Addict]

more kyries. and some kyries w/ range. :D

[InfinityMax]

Point 1) I want undead pirates.

Point 2) JHope, welcome to the boards. Here's a checklist for stuff you should know before you start talking smack:

A) What is a dot-netter?
B) If I throw you through a window, what is my next line?
C) What is the only proper title for cbs42?
D) Who made Quests of Heroscape? Who did the art?
E) What is the single greatest accomplishment of Hero?
F) Who coined the phrase, 'Hot Lava Death,' and where?
G) What was the original graphic atop the HQ?

Once you can answer all those 100% correctly, you should be more than ready to sling crap. If you start slinging crap before you know all these answers, you will ruin your long-term credibility and people will just think you're a jackass. If you establish a reputation before you start acting like flame-bait, you should be much better able to be confrontational. Not only that, but you will know which remarks to ignore.

This is not a slam, this is advice. I think it's good advice, and I practiced very similar advice when I began posting on the original fan site. And look where it got me - now I'm a Man Genius.

[Alastair MacDirk]

Don't they really need to make some Hispanic/Latino figures??? I mean there is Agent Carr and the Black Krav Maga agent and the Asian community is well represented by all the Samurai's. Some undead Mexicans would be really cool! Tie it in with the day of the dead and all.

[GaryLASQ]

i wish they would make fewer humans and more creatures.

how about something like "Graboids" from Tremors :)

seriously, i love when the large hero expansions come out because of the creature factor. the latest boosters (Jandar and Zanafor) have had way too many humans, imo.

[TheRealQ]

A checklist? That's bogus. I don't know but one thing on that list. Are you telling me that since I haven't been posting for a year or two I lack credibility? Do all the old-timers really feel this way? I would have thought their seniority would have made them more laid back and better able to roll with the blows. I give everyone equal respect until they open their mouth. If I am insulted by a newbie or a .netter I am still insulted and will forever think of that person as an idiot until they apologize. If I see an intelligent post by a newbie or by a .netter I am impressed and think that person intelligent until proven otherwise. I think it is asinine to treat a poster differently because they are new. grrr

Aztecs!

I'd really like to see more Vikings. We've never seen any in the expansions.
For a game set in Valhalla we're really lacking in vikings.

[TheRealQ]

or Mayans
they could also have Zulus

[shakey_snake]

or Incas.


All the cool units I can think of would be historical.

What about Saber-tooths or some other large cat?

We've got plenty of dogs.

[TheRealQ]

I think we have seen so many wolves because they exist in Norse mythology. I don't remember them having cats.

JH - I am a relative newbie to this group, but I do understand something about the internet. This is a free place. You signed up - you're a member. Speak away. There is no council of elders that grants you your rights. You have your rights by nature.

IMax - I respect your contribution to the community very much...but what you wrote doesn't sound very welcoming to a newbie. I'm definately not trying to start a flame war, so please don't take it that way. Remember when the straggling HQers were complaining over there that the 'old guard' HSers were stuck up? I know you're not but your post could be read that way.

[ChaosChild]

I'd like to see more mounted human figs (knights, mongols, Immortals, etc.)

As for cats, Nerak and the swog rider on sabertooth cats (swogs).

And primadons? Check out my customs thread. http://www.heroscapers.com/community/showthread.php?t=228

Don't pay the ferryman,

[quixotequest]

I really wanted dwarves and undead. (Not Marro undead but skeletons, zombies, etc.) I got tired of waiting so I broke down and have turned into a D&D/HeroScape customizer.

[Hex_Enduction_Hour]

Soldier past the Man Genius. He'll get over it and you'll soon see his worth to the boards (Codex, wonderful dice towers, kick ass artist/author, and hella funny posts)

And don't mind us old guard. Some of us proved ourselves on HS.net and HSHQ. Those sites are long gone.

Fresh start here. And welcome Newbies.

[InfinityMax]

Oh for crying out loud! I didn't slam anyone, I just suggested a more diplomatic approach if you don't know who you're crapping on!

I will not get over it, Hex. I'm not saying new people need to know their place. I am saying that, if you don't understand the social dynamic, you should not start slinging crap.

[RichardD]

Hang on a sec - is it suggested that there are things that can't be said by anyone who DOESN'T know which HS fan came up with a particular phrase, or what graphics were used on a long-defunct web site?

By the same logic, perhaps we'd better have no comments on aeroplanes except by people who know the name of the Wright Brothers' main sponsors, no comments on newspapers unless you can identify the wood used by Caxton for his first press, and we'll have no TV reviews except by the folk that can tell you Baird's first picture broadcast.

No. I'm sorry. Setting some sort of entry bar that requires intimate knowledge of the fan community just makes it sound like you're running some sort of kindergarten club, the worst sort of clique. If I wanted that sort of nonsense, I'd try and post to the warhammer USENET group (a bunch of tossers who have exactly the same sort of attitude, I'm afraid).

Accept that the contributions of new guys is bound to retread old ground from time to time, but might also throw up something new precisely because THEY are new, and come with a fresh mind and fresh ideas. Thank them for their contributions, and explain with patience why they are wrong if their new ideas are actually old ideas that have been tested and rejected for god reason. And if they start "slinging crap", judge them for it, then politely explain why it's unacceptable - but don't accept it from *anyone*, even if the crap-slinger can tell you how many different avatars UD has had. Because crap will be crap whoever posts it - and saying that it is somehow more acceptable from the "old guard" is one sure way of pushing the community apart, rather than pulling them together.

And that way, I'll still let you vote next time even though you have no idea who George Washington's wig maker was :)

[Jandars_Hope]

Thanks for your advice and ideas guys!!!
Apologies for my previous post....now hows about we get some more ideas on the table!!! :D

I really like the idea of dwarves and more trolls/giants....a whole family of Jotan-Giants!!!

I'd like to see more original ideas in future releases...like the marro men were, something other-worldly!

I have it!!!!! what an idea!!!!! I just thought of this. Why am I not running hasbro!!!

How about a sweepstakes where they use your likenesss as one of the figures. That would be friggin awesome. I would love to be a viking or something. God that makes me happy :P

Zombies. More dinosaurs. Fewer robots. More norsemen. A seige engine. A WW2 machine gun fireteam. Clowns. More small figures (dwarves?). Zorro. Something to make people stop whining about Khosumet and the Gorillanators. A family of grizzly bears (with a small blonde girl as bonded hero?). A new Master Set (oops, wrong thread). Pirates (yes, it was someone else's idea first - but it's a GOOD idea). The crew of X-bomber. Insectoid people. 1970s cops (Starsky & Hutch/ChiPs/TJ Hooker - take your pick). Asterix & Obelix. Hector & Achilles. A small rubber mouse. Units that gain bonuses/enalties in certain terrain (Bedouin warriors/mountain goats/petro-driven lawnmowers). Hairy bikers astride Harleys. A Carthaginian war elephant. Sparkly water. Rogue Trooper. Sports stars. The Judean People's Front.

Hope, apology accepted, and returned. Sorry for coming off as exclusionary - you can say whatever you want here. I know I sounded like I don't want you to speak up, but it really was just meant like, 'you know, if you wait a while before you get mad, people give you more credit.' I'm glad to see the return of this thread, and I'm sorry my reply got taken so wrong. I didn't mean it that way.

Hope you stick around long enough for me to throw you out a window. (that's a joke, I promise)

Nice post. It sounds like you are either going to be doing some customizing or waiting a long time. What you listed could be 3 waves unto itself. I really like the idea of siege engines although I think I have already said so in two other threads. With castles coming out it seems a natural progression.

[Joah]

I've said it before, I'll post it again (in the next figure wishlist). Arabian Knights! ( a la "Prince of Persia"), and package the Hero with a Flying carpet. We're gonna have castles soon, people. I'm going start beating this dead horse. You might remember, from the old .net days, that in everyone of my posts, for about three months was the phrase; " Rob! Craig! Give us Cowboys! Please!". So you can thank me for that. :wink:

I gotta have some spear orcs grunts to go with the the blade and arrow grunts. The spear grunts could bond with either the beast or champion so they could accompany either the blade or the arrow grunts.

[Neveryll]

I would love to see some more hulking brutes in the armies.

Troll - Maybe a big hulking troll that regenerates a wound every round but has low movement and defense.

Mamooth Calvary - Nothing says I'm going to stomp you like someone mounted on an elephant. Give it a stomp attack to use on nearby units or maybe a charge attack that you use while you move and if its not successful it ends your move adjacent to the affected figure.

Mounted Knights - Come on why would anyone be a knight and not use a old horse and lance? Give him the same charge attack above and maybe the traditional coward's reward.

I also would love to see some more variety in units as well.

Crossbow men - Maybe give them a high attack missile attack that keeps them from moving on the next turn.

Undead - Plenty mentioned here already but no really nasty things so far though the marro seem to come bretty close.

The Mongol Horde - Come on their wild, ruthless, and nasty fighters.

Civil war troops - Since they weren't afraid to tap the Revolutionary why not the civil war as well?

There are some other awesome ideas in this thread too. All in all I live the game and hope they keep making more.

:shock: Oh snap. I have to have that goat! Now I have to go to a game store and find some appropriate miniatures. That one looks perfect. Is it a Ral Partha? If anyone nows how I can get that goat let me know...my pocketbook is itching. The card needs a little rework but it is a good start.

And oh, sorry about the dragon. I think that if Einar stays true to form they are never going to have big guys.

[ChaosChild]

And Einar needs a cool asian styled dragon!

No, he needs a Two-headed Dragon with a sonic attack. :wink:

[RichardD]

Mamooth Calvary - Nothing says I'm going to stomp you like someone mounted on an elephant. Give it a stomp attack to use on nearby units or maybe a charge attack that you use while you move and if its not successful it ends your move adjacent to the affected figure.


A Carthaginian War Elephant for Einar would be superb. Carthaginian because they used smaller African forest elephants (now exinct), and everyone's heard how Hannibal lead a few dozen over the Alps; if you went for the classic Seleucid War elephant, you'd (i) need more plastic, as Indian elephants are bigger, and (ii) have people asking "who were the Seleucids?"

Got to be an Einar unit, though - there's not enough scope for big criters in an Einar army to pass up this chance.


Mounted Knights - Come on why would anyone be a knight and not use a old horse and lance? Give him the same charge attack above and maybe the traditional coward's reward.

Human cavalry is likely to be quite large; I'd thought about mongol horsemen myself, but rejected it on the grounds that 3 in a booster would leave precios little room for anything else. When coming up with ideas, it's always worth thinking how the manufacturer/designer thinks - how can it be moulded, how can it be packaged, can it be done as cheaply/cheaper than other units etc etc.

Civil war troops - Since they weren't afraid to tap the Revolutionary why not the civil war as well?

Because game-wise, they'd be almost identical? The Airborne Elite and the Minutemen are different enough -ranged units of low-defence humans, but one has squad discipline and the other has parachutes and grenades. I can't see them doing ACW units because they'd behave a lot like Minutemen.

It's sometimes worth thinking about what could make a suggestion "special" - Einar in particular is going to struggle, as a LOT of the historical stuff I thought about can be rejected as either too expensive to make (mounted knights), or too similar to stuff he already has (English Longbows).

Customs? Nah, not for me. There's enough in the game at the moment without e wanting to flex my poorly developed games design muscles. Though I d want tosee some stuff that treats standard terrain differently - like some sort of "climber", who can climb cliffs on rock more easily. Sly Stallone from Cliffhanger, perhaps? See what I mean, about it being better if I left customs well alone?

[TheRealQ]

RichardD, great idea on the elephant. Hannibal was Carthagian? My history is getting rusty. Guess I need to brush up. Carthagians would be a great match for Einar. Kudos.

The mounted knights are easy to package. Just like the swog rider you can make them a common hero and just put one in an expansion pack. Another option would be to make a squad of two. The only two man squad we have thusfar is the Zettian Guard. About time we had a second.

[Jandars_Hope]

I agree with shakey that we definitely need more Einar figures, that aren't human, so that they could put up some sort of fight against the other General's!!!
I'd like to see alot more out-of-this-world characters!!!

[Agent Minivann]

Hex, you stole my oriental dragon idea, curse you. A nice wingless oriental dragon would be pimp.

I agree with the need for something like Aztecs. Throw in some Zulus and/or Egyptians as well.

[RichardD]

If we go with that idea, how many would we need? "Zulus, sir - thousands of 'em!"

Sorry, but it's on telly here in the UK later on this afternoon. And I never could resist joining in by reciting the famous lines.

[Oprime]

Only thing I can think of that wasn't already mentioned is a Cyclopse.

[Revdyer]

Seriously, what units can derive from right now, 2006? (from earth)

They could do Taliban fighters, but I don't think they'd be very popular; although maybe people would want them just to kill them. Make a unique of Osama ben Ladin, who is difficult to catch.

Oh, I like the thought of Seleucid elephants bonded with an Antiochus Epiphanes. Then we could have a Judas Maccabees to counter.

I'd still love to see a unique Thomas J. Jackson or J.E.B.Stuart with Confederate infantry or cavalry. But would they then have to do a Grant or Sherman or Phil Sheridan?

I'm going with the purple dragon with only "one" head and sonic powers. or maybe a shadow dragon(shadow dragons are purple so it'll go with einar well)

Would Antiochus get the special ability to Abominably Desecrate? And I’m not sure that Judas or any of the Maccabees would appreciate winding up in Valhalla. “Darn, knew I should have tried the pork. Hay, if your taking lunch orders I’d like to try the ham and Swiss, kosher rye if you got it.”

I'm all in favor of War Eliphants. Bring'm on.

Yeah...Antiochus IV gets the special Desecration ability and you have to burn the lamp in your castle for eight days to get rid of it. (Of course, I may be wrong. The first time I saw a billboard in Israel advertizing MACCABEES BEER, I, being Scots-Irish, read it as MacCabees. Talk about your mistaken identity!)

Oh, and congratulations on your post #1, Sagart!

And skyknight: With Jackson, you could bond armies and turn infantry into "foot cavalry," increasing their movement by 50% or something.

I will respectfully disagree and present a way to make them different from the 4th Mass. Why not produce some 'ol Southern boys and give them the "Rebel Yell" special ability which increases their range attack or melee attack. Different enough from the "all valiant" or "stand and fire" SA?

I like the idea of the Carthaginian elephant and some type of cavalry. I hope they are not cost prohibitive for Hasbro. A few more mythological creatures would be nice (cyclops?) and I'm for some Egyptian myth stuff: Basti catpeople or Sobek alligator dudes.

[Su_Nan]

What I would love to see is a unique squad of orc beserkers.

One of the abilities would be that when the enemy is within 8 clear sight spaces of the beserkers they can move extra spaces.

Knowing hasbro they would just slap frenzy and call it a night.

Orc's need a unique squad. The vipers got one and the marro got one.

[TheRealQ]

Good point, the orcs do need a unique squad. Maybe they'll do something like the EOV and just do a repaint on the Blade Gruts and offer it as a bonus.

Lol!

Cave Hide 2
Before placing order markers each round, Osama rolls the 20 sided die. If he gets 2-20, he is removed from play, but is not destroyed. If he gets a 1, every unit in all opposing armies may attack Osama. They do not need to be in range or have line of site. Osama may not roll defence if he fails the roll.

[Codeman]

I like the idea of the Taliban Fighters ( squad units ) Bin Ladin ( unique ) … lets throw in some camels for vehicles too, and of course a few sand tiles This theme expansion may be more popular than Revdyer thinks. I certainly would want at least one set in my collection.

I was big into seeing more fantasy figures (especially dwarves) but since I've lately been burnt out on fantasy, I'd have to say more gritty dark future types ala Wasteland/Fallout/Road Warrior or even Escape From New York. Let's see a Max or Snake Plissken rip-off, or maybe a post-apocalypse biker gang or a big dude like The Humungous in The Road Warrior. Or how about a guy with a chainsaw and shotgun like Ash in Evil Dead? Of course, none of these will ever happen since Hasbro is bent on marketing to the kiddies, so instead we'll continue to see more run-of-the-mill lame stuff like goofy robots (gladiatrons/X17/Omnicron Snipers) or the upcoming robotic armadillos or Charlie's Angels girls in white.

Oh, and my gf would definitely like to see more female heroes, preferably ones that don't suck -- maybe someone like Selene from Underworld or the chick in black from Van Helsing.

Actually, I'd like to see some 17th century guys - a squad of pike and a squad of shot would be great - with special abilities to complement each other. Some cav from the era would be great - the kind with lobster-back helmet, back and breast plate, sword and wheellock pistols.

More Dinosaurs with Orcs riding them ie. Triceratops; Stegosaurus

More Elves
Dwarves
Ogre
More Giants
Blue Dragon
Mounted Knights ala Swog Rider

More elementals ala Obsidian Guards

Large Marro Creature from Thoramun's Journal

I'll add more as I think of them...

Here's a good chick figure Lara Croft. (have like 6 specials for all of her weapons. grappling hook, dual pistols, shotgun, bazooka, sniper rifle, grenades.)

squid and octipi could only be used in water. can you say huge target(in spanish.) As for the blue dragon, although it would be cool to have a lightning dragon in this game, its color doesn'y go with any of the generals. Which is why HEROSCAPE is having a hard time with an Einar dragon.

[reapersaurus]

Here's a good chick figure Lara Croft. (have like 6 specials for all of her weapons. grappling hook, dual pistols, shotgun, bazooka, sniper rifle, grenades.)Have you seen Doc Savage's Ultraviolet unit?
She has Equipment o-plenty, which sounds like the best way to implement your idea of Lara Croft.

[Sagart]

If I could choose only one unit to come in the next wave it would be War Elephants, maybe with Hannibal as a unique hero. (I know, that probably counts as two, but that’s what I want.)

Other than that and in this order …

War Elephants
Ships/boats and naval rules
Mounted Knights including Arabian/Bedouin maybe war camels too
Mongols
Longbow Men and Crossbow Men
Common Samurai (maybe we’re getting these)
Dwarves
More elves
Uruk-hai
A Skeleton Army
Siege equipment, catapults and the like
Paladins
More trolls, and goblins, and hobgoblins, but not that many
More Giants, but just a few
More mythical/fantastic beasts, Centaur, Monitor, Cerberus and the like, but just a few
Ke-mo-shi and maybe the “Marro Elephant/Giant” (if there is such a thing, I personally think that the description could just as well be of Su-Bak-Na, the sketchy picture is definitely not of an elephant and could just have been a prototype) but that should be about the end of the Marro, at least for a while.

I don’t care if we get more modernish, modern, post-modern/science fiction types, but…

as long as we’ve got the 4th Massachusetts, how about …

Red Coats, Hessians and Highlanders
White Coated Frenchies (on the Planes of Abraham)
Green Mountain Boys, gap-toothed frontier’s men and the like
Minute Men and the Continental Army
Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) War Parties
Artillery

That's good enough for now.

I was planning on re-painting a second set of 4th Mass to look like redcoats and leaving all the stats the same, just changing the name on the card.
I was also looking into doing some greenmountain boys with the same figures. I was going to just do repaints with different colored browns and greens to make them look like a rag tag group.

MYSTERY MEN!

The Bowler
The Shoveler

Nice allusion to Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan, Sagart.

"Whatsoever therefore is consequent to a time of war, where every man is enemy to every man; the same is consequent to the time wherein men live without other security than what their own strength and their own invention shall furnish them withal. In such condition there is no place for industry, because the fruit thereof is uncertain, and consequently no culture of the earth; no navigation, nor use of the commodities that may be imported by sea; no commondius building; no instruments of moving, and removing, such things as require much force; no knowledge of the face of the earth; no account of time; no arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death;and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.

Is the dragon real?

The epistemological puzzle raised by this simple question is immense!

[Euryon]

Im confused as to whether he refers to "the dragon", as in Satan or some other malevolent sentience, "a dragon" as in the mythological creature, or "the dragon" as in the custom creation and whether it is an official HS piece.

Before we get into epistemology, theres some truth value to discern!

[Revdyer]

We probably ought to start with the proposition that:
there are no real dragons.

And then go from there.

[JELEINEN]

I'll second more samurai/ashigaru, elephants (with howdah and archers), and mounted troops in general.

Speaking of mounted figures, some bikers complete with bikes would make nifty modern day units (arm them with chains, nail-studded bats, etc.).

One idea my group came up with (somewhat jokingly, but it might work) are lumberjacks. Give them the ability to take out trees (and possibly figures adjacent to the tree at the same time).

Oh, and pikemen might be neat.

PHOENIX!

[RichardD]

Lumberjacks - with womens' clothing!

And on the same note, a limbless Black Knight (power - Bite yer kneecaps off), Brave, Brave Sir Robin (power - runs away), Judean People's Front Crack Suicide Squad )power - "That'll show 'em"), and the Juniper Bush.

[Revdyer]

And Bicycle Repairman, and Mr. Neutron.

[Ryougabot]

I think cavemen would be cool

Common Squad of 3

A2
D2
M4

Tribe pack bonus: Add one attack dice for every caveman attacking a single figure that round.

This would be based on the fact that cavemen could take down a mammoth by working together.

These would be a great counter squad for any huge overpowered figure.

[LilNewbie]

2. Mounted knights squad
3. Good elven melee warriors and Elven hero with a sword
4. Dwarves (warriors and dwarves with phalanxes)
5. Persian war elephants
6. Gorilla berserkers
7. Knight archers
8. Natives (North American or South American)
9. Evil vikings to go w/valguard
10. Gladiator squad

Wouldn't you pay good money to have your pack of feral dogs rip apart my gameshow host? I know you would...

You will sorely regret that when I counter with my telephone support analyst.

I'll see your telephone support analyst, and raise you a proctologist!

Alright, you asked for it. It's time to move my batboy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bat_Boy) out onto the table.

Bat Boy
Attack: 2
Defense: 4
Move: 8
Life: 1
Size: Small 3
Points: 40

Flying

Disengage

Media Frenzy: Every time Bat Boy successfully wounds a character, a celebrity marker is added to his army card (these can be exploited by the media units).

Daring Escape 8: When this unit is killed, roll d20. If an 8 or higher is rolled Bat Boy escapes death but temporarily leaves play for the rest of the round. At the beginning of the next round and before placing order markers, Bat Boy may be placed on any open space on the map which does not contain a rune.

I actually really want to play this version of the game now. hehehe. I'm going to have to start to make some army cards!

Im all for more orcs and some pirates. But how about some Desert Storm soldiers?

[Spooky]

How about some engines of war?

The size of the packaging they use for the waves would be big enough to have an engine and a crew or a couple of light engines. Even if it required some push-together assembly.

You know stuff like...
- A Roman Scorpion (oversized cross bow on a tri-pod)
- Catapault
- Trebuchet
- Perhaps a catapault fitted with arrow baskets?
- A battering ram for opening that pesky castle door

Ammo
-besides rocks or arrows (normal attack), special attack idea of flame splash or disease or arrow storm or something...

Love my castles, but it would be really good to get the attackers seige engines since the defenders have tall walls, a strong front door, etc.

Just my wish list.
