Just sitting here, enjoying memories of GC, man Heroscape is just the best game ever, I think the people that play it are a also a lot cooler then most games. It is just such a great group of people and so much fun to hang out with. The scapers are very polite and fun to talk to. You also don´t have to worry about people being rude or stealing your stuff. I left my bag of figures and cards in between almost every match to hit the head and I never once thought to worry about my stuff. I just left it on the table where my last game was played and picked it up before the next one started. After getting 2nd in the championship I just left a pile of winning by the wall and never even worried about any of it walking off ( OK i did keep the dice in my pocket ).

I had the wrong guy to go with the card, or not enough 10th and used a couple of MM and no one ever said a thing, my Marcus was missing an arm and people just laughed and said no worries. Heck I saw people with out...

Man it has been a great week so far, finally got Heroscape set back up and am getting some game time in, I am testing the new stuff from wave 9 and actually wave 8 that I did not play much of in the last year, basically nothing.
I like wave 9 but I think the gunner kyrie´s are the best of the group, the gladiators make Spartacus at least playable, but not really tournament worthy.
The dwarves are nice, but they need a lot more hero´s and they will never take on the knights, it is more of a counter draft to big guys, but nothing to take to a tourney.

have not used repulsor yet.

Ticilla sunrise is an awesome board and I am glad to be playtesting on it, it is a tough tight board, hard to get around with 2 space guys, and there are some great clog points on it, and I think the tree and shrub placement works great, I am looking forward to checking out more maps for this year, smaller, trying to stop squadscape I think. OK, time to look at maps for...

I got in some gaming, but there was no heroscape for me this turkey day, sad really, but living in the jungle it is to be expected. Scape is a tough one to teach new people and get a real game out of it. It is going to take someone a while to get up to speed on playing, then a lot longer to know all the cards and how they all work together, which means most of the game si play are me 100-200 pts. down, which really sucks and doesn't let me get the synergy I would like to have in an army.

Our house should be done by Mid Jan. of 2009 - and you should see the Heroscape room I have made, a very big room on the back side of the house at the end of a very large wrap around porch. I can not wait to have everything set up always. I now go to a friends and I spend at least 45 minutes setting up a board and then settting up the guys we have on hand ( my collection is so spread out I never have all of them together at once down here at least - In Canton it is all together, but...
