Heroscape Article in Knucklebones Magazine

The July 2007 issue of Knucklebones (www.kbones.com) has a nice spread (three full pages, one third of a fourth page) about Heroscape in it. I wrote the article; it includes some comments from regulars here at Heroscapers.com along with Craig Van Ness. No breaking news or anything -- it was intended as an introductory kind of article for people who may have seen it but never played.

Cheers,
Erik

Yep. I interviewed them via email, and it was quite clear why I was interviewing them.

I hope he didn't! How hilarious would it be if a professional journalist just forgot to cite sources?! I would be rolling. The article would read like this:

Quote:
"I hate all the crap you have to buy to play Heroscape," said Bob. "Taelord is too expensive, too."

"Don't quote me, though," he added after a moment. So I totally did! Ha! Suck it, Bob!

Will T is surprisingly tart
According to this thread, http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/164179, over on BoardGameGeek, my subscription to Games Quarterly Magazine is now defunct, but I can transfer my subscription to Knucklebones. I hadn't realized Games Quarterly had gone out of business. Does anyone know anything more about this?

Never speak that name on this site, unless you refer to the 1990's television cartoon.
