Week@HS Revival - Week #10

Posted February 9th, 2013 at 11:51 AM by truth

Please give a warm welcome to Spidey'tillIDie, head C3G Communications Officer and Picture Poster Extraordinaire (C3G COPPE for short ) and newest member to the Week@HSers family.

We are also featuring our second new monthly article, Fan Fiction of the Month! Each month we will feature the first chapter of a fan fic for your enjoyment, written by the members of this site!

C3G
Ever have trouble picking an army for your C3G game? Well not any more! A3n has created tons of C3G armies for you to use. He has sorted them through numerous point groups and painstakingly made draft cards for your convenience!

C3V & SoV
This week we give a sneak peek into an esteemed C3V member's collection ... Xotli! He has quite the collection and was kind enough to snap a pic for us. Whew ... I sure can't wait for them all to be released!*


*CAUTION: Remember that making buying decisions based on fuzzy shelf pics is a good way to screw yourself and others. The number one reason why certain minis get tossed out and others chosen is for lack of availability. If you buy a bunch of minis before the sculpt info is officially released, you not only risk having the figures changed out from under you ... you could actually cause it. So, squint, speculate, gossip, and giggle ... BUT DO NOT BUY. You have been warned.

The C3V and SoV groups have worked together for some time now. However, has the acronym "C3V/SoV" always felt like a mouthful to you? Thankfully, the C3V and SoV have come up with an alternative way to refer to both groups. Together, the C3V and SoV are hereby named Valhalla Customs (or VC for short). Each group will still retain their individual name; Valhalla Customs just replaces the hideous 7-syllable See-three-vee *slash* Es-oh-vee.

Custom of the Week
This week's custom card, Murj by Scytale! This mighty Ettin proves two heads can be better than one with twice the smashing per turn. Scytale harkens back to the ROTV figures of yore with this simple fun design.

Don't forget to check out more of Scytale's Customs!

This week's mod, Uxmaz Tailless by Mossman! Mossman created this fearsome lizardman with an Abomination figure and some greenstuff.

See more at Mossmans Customs and Repaints!

Map of the Week
This week we bring you Black Charos's Highway Hills map. This combines a RotV, a FotA and a RttFF to create a good aesthetic mix.

With a nice 'ruined fortress' look, this provides a nice mix of cover and accessibility and even supports a glyph! The easy set up and not quite symmetrical positions harken back to the age of Hasbro and WotC maps.

Custom SuperScape Creation
From the Vaults of Sherman Davies comes a knight in semi-shining armor... The Black Knight!

This Valiant hero can fly over the battlefield and with a life of 5 and defense of 4 he will last awhile. His attack of six can pack a punch, just be careful that he doesn't give into his Ebony Blade....

Fan Fiction of the Month
This week, we bring you the first Chapter of the epic saga, Kit: Young Ninja, by Orcs Blade.
Spoiler Alert!





Miscellaneous
Utgar's been drafting other things in his wellsprings then Orcs and Marro, he's made his own order markers! Kaemon Awa 123 repainted some order markers to bear Utgar's symbol! These markers look fantastic with there black metal look and even have a nice protective clear coating to make them last!

Editor's note
Still looking for a couple new members, if anyone is interested. Positions for the Miscellaneous and Custom SuperScape Creation articles are still open, along with the Fan Art and Fan Fiction monthly articles respectively.

- Your friendly, neighborhood, Heroscape Newsgroup .

First GO and then SD on the individual thread super custom highlight section. Just looking through their threads is inspirational. What's next a custom from the golden age classic allskulls?

Always enjoyable reading Week@Scapers, keep up the great work!

Grats on the position Spidey!

That repainted Order Marker is very cool, and inspires me to do some of my own. I would probably have never seen it without this. Thanks again, you guys rock!
