Heroscapeguy Woo who?
Door Smashing Contest

So, what character/unit is best at taking down the (in my opinion) rediculously sturdy door? Even better, can it/they survive a few vollies from figures on the battlements?

Also, when you play a castle map, do you reduce the REINFORCED DEFENSE so the attackers do not have to spend half an hour hammering on the door?


The only thing wrong with vacations is that there's no Heroscape!

Hulk, Abomination, Jotun, or a wounded Krug.

I never alter the statistics of the door.

Before my game group figured out that special attacks are never modified, we used the roman archers with height at nine attack.

ROTV Sgt. Drake Alexander can be good, pending on how many special attacks are on the battlements

Translation: he is saying that since Thorian speed does not work against special attacks, if their is someone on the battlements with a specail attack, Sgt. Drake would be less affective.

Hope this helps.

Re: Door Smashing Contest

DW8k is pretty good at smashing the door with his Rapid Fire Special Attack. Anyone with an explosion attack can hit the door and figures adjacent to it (even behind the door), so that's not a bad strategy either. Generally fliers or range are better options though.

I build my castles with ladders on the outside now, LotR Helm's Deep style. It balances it out a little more for melee.

Seems to me Drake would be better off using grappling gun/arm to scale the battlements and then opening the door from the inside...

Ya, I've tried that, but there's generally so many units in or on top of the castle that he gets killed before he gets to the door
