A picture is worth 1000 words… Man, I wish I could put some pictures in the FAQs!

I had a discussion with Revdyer the other day, about the little things in the images of the rulebooks. How if you look at some of the images carefully, you can see that Craig & Co. tried to show certain issues without having to explain them in detail. For example, there is a picture in the Road to the Forgotten forest that illustrates a point that was recently brought up...

Last week we attempted a Heroscapers.com Release Party to celebrate the new Wave 8, Ticalla Jungle, and Aquilla's Alliance expansion releases. Unfortunately the response was so huge that our server just collapsed under the weight.

Well, we are on a new server now, 3x as powerful as the last, and we are giving this release party another go.

The Release Party will be today, June 18th from 2:00 p.m. - 6:30 p.m. EST

The activities get underway at 2:00 as Chris Dupuis, lead writer of the new FAQs, joins us on the site to discuss the changes made to the rules of Heroscape. Then at 2:30 we give away our first set of prizes. (You have to be on the site and logged-in during the giveaway to win. You'll also need to respond to the winning PM within the hour to prove that you are on and active.)

Events and giveaways will then continue on throughout the rest of the day until around 6:30 p.m. EST

If you missed it, you can...

For those of you who don't know, the HS Codex is an online publication all about Heroscape and it is fantastically well-executed. The latest issue has just released and is chock-full-o-goodness.

We are starting off our Release Party with an In-Depth overview of the new units being released:
Fyorlag Spiders

These Arachnids are native to Aquilla’s land. As such, they are at home hiding in and around the trees of Ticalla Jungle. They can call the assistance of local predators, and they are very good at locking opponents down with their entangling web while they wait for reinforcements!







Zetacron

Jandar’s newest Soulborg addition packs quite a punch! His deadly shot can reach even the farthest opponent...

Come and join us on heroscapers.com this Thursday, June 12th, starting at 1:00 EST and running until 7:00, as we celebrate the release of the Wave 8, Ticalla Jungle, and Aquilla's Alliance expansion packs.
