Thread of the Week

For new players, one of the hardest parts of Heroscape is learning how to use the vast number of different figures out there. The Unit Strategy Review collection helps alleviate this problem by bringing some of the brightest minds together to run through the various strategies of each unit. Their newest release is on the Shades of Bleakewoode.




Did you know that trees are hollow? Nonexistantnonexister did not. He started a thread to declare just that. How did he come across this bit of wisdom? By chewing on the trees. Yes, the plastic trees from RttFF. The thread spun off into an absolutely hilarious and random lawl-fest. Here's the thread; hold onto your hats, folks, it gets ROFL-ly from here on out.

Back before Heroscapers.com, Bobbo created the Herospoofs as a way to poke fun at the various opinions and abilities of the units. Even though they may be old, they are still good for laughing out loud.

Thread of the Week

The Books of Heroscape are a terrific resource for both old and new players. They are a great way to find a quick clarification of a special power or to discuss army and strategy choices. Recently, one of the founders of the idea of having the Books, revdyer, has posted a thread seeking community input on How to Improve the Books.

Thread of the Week

A big part of Heroscape is the army you choose to bring to the table.

Step 3: PROFIT

The Guild took some time finding itself, which lead to a drop-off in participation. We still think it's a great idea, and are determined to rev it up again.

Here's what the guild leader has to say:
