Heavy Fighting

Posted October 9th, 2012 at 01:15 PM by Sylvano the Wasabus
Yesterday we played ten Scape games- our version of course. The beginning ones were smaller affairs, a scenario we call messenger. The victory condition of the game is simple- you have to get one figure across the board before your opponent does the same. We usually play on a long rectangular map.

My boys are good players and I only won once out of many games. The game I won was just luck of course- I was down to one figure but he had multiple lives and was able to run for it. He was wounded in a leaving engagement and he managed to fight off two more figures for me to win. One more turn and I would have lost. It was a narrow win, but the taste was still sweet.


In the afternoon we decided to play a heavy battle. It was heavy for us at any rate- a three on three, four hundred points each- so a total of 1200 points on 1200 points. What really made it heavy was that we played on the rectangular messenger map.

The scenario was simple: there

Play Heroscape Online

Posted October 4th, 2012 at 11:05 AM by truth
Sign up for the upcoming online Heroscape event here with the top prize of the winner's choice of Aquilla's Alliance or $100 to spend at Auggie's Games.



Over the course of the past several months, some major advances have brought online Heroscape from a cumbersome exercise to something that feels very close to playing in a live game. Here's a brief introduction to the system.

How does online Heroscape work?
Online Heroscape is played through a web-based interface that was primarily developed by Filthy the Clown. This interface allows players to place and reveal order markers, roll randomized virtual dice, and have those results displayed in a chat window. At the same time, the actual pieces are moved around on a shared google drawing (an approach pioneered by Kinseth).

This video explains the basics. It is recommended you watch it in fullscreen mode, so...

The Fall of Heroscapers

Posted October 2nd, 2012 at 05:21 PM by Swamper
Heroscapers has become a shell of the great community it used to be. I don't spend much time here anymore, and when I do come I just poke around for five or ten minutes. Even with the short amount of time I'm here, I can see the slow decay of the site.

I first noticed it in the CoN section near the beginning of the year. As far back as I could remember, there had always been two games of CoN. Then came the day when there were only enough players for one. Not only that, but the people I had played with had all, for the most part, moved on. As if that wasn't bad enough, the new blood that was coming in didn't appeal to me. Sure, there are always the real hardcore CoNers that will be around until the end of time, but I found myself not wanting to play near as much as I had before because of the new guys.

I next noticed the decay of the site just reading over the new threads section. Posts were no longer thought out. Grammar seemed to be thrown to the...
