Re: The BOOKS of Heroscape INDEX
I don't think it's quite the same thing. The Haslab failed in the sense that nothing from the Haslab got "officially" released (at least not as Avalon Hill envisioned it); it failed before anything...

Re: The Book of Shiori (AoA)
I agree emphatically with Grison's interpretation. The notion that the phrase "not more than 6 spaces above or below Shiori's base" refers to the targeted figure rather than the space Shiori moves...

I believe this was only for Kyrie Warriors in classic, right? Which I didn't mind. Now, if they were to name someone "...the Kyrie Warrior" and make them something other than Kyrie (undead, for...

Funnily enough, reversing the name would be in keeping with prior 'Scape naming conventions in another respect: Nerak (the Glacian Swog Rider) is Karen spelled backwards (a reference to someone who...

Re: HeroScape is coming back!
Yeah, it seems like an odd connection. That said, "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?" is also a Lead Belly song, but a number of people still associate it with Nirvana.[/QUOTE]
Again, I'd believe...

Re: HeroScape is coming back!
"Goodnight, Irene" isn't even really a Clapton song, right? It's an old folk song, first recorded in the 1930s by Blues/Folk singer Huddie Ledbetter (better known as "Lead Belly"), that got covered...

Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
If you're making them a Common Squad, you might want to use different sculpts (in addition to the one sculpt you've already found). The Thri-Kreen (Spear) and Thri-Kreen (Chatkcha/Shuriken) models -...

These amazing bears don't have any posts in their Book yet? How criminal! Let's fix that.
Besides being amazing conceptually - "Anthropomorphic Polar Bear Knights" is one of the few unreservedly...

Re: The Book of Shiori (AoA)
Honestly, Shiori (AoA) barely seems better than regular Shiori. 110 points is a lot to spend on a figure with only 4 life and 3 defense who's heavily dependent on hitting a 35% Kieru chance to...

Onshu seems like the best familiar we've seen so far, though that isn't saying much. Sonic Blast is basically the White Wyrmling special attack on a decently survivable body, and you get to use an...

The Incredibles is arguably the best superhero movie ever made. If you somehow haven't watched it yet, definitely rectify that.

Re: The New York City Gang Of Four
With a week before the game, it's a good time to reveal the pods so that players can start to plan for the draft. Here's what's going to be available:
