From Page 2:
Unfortunately
Heroscape's game mechanics make for a boring game
Meaningless choices
All games end up the same
What is this guy talking about? How could anyone play the game...

Re: The Surprisingly Tart HeroScape Draft Wizard
Hi guys, been a while since I've been here, or even played HS at all.
I did find that one of the problems with the drafter now is that with 12 players selected, it drafts 1 card per player from...

Re: My Favorite Games Are The Close Ones
Hehe, I've already read my share of threads "discussing" luck vs skill. And the crazy number of people saying Heroscape is more skill than luck, which is really quite absurd.
Yes, there are some...

Re: My Favorite Games Are The Close Ones
Thats what I used to think Jexik.
Then we started logging dice rolls and percentages, and mapping that to actual results.
Final result? Luck wins hands down, and can stick with one player for many...

Re: My Favorite Games Are The Close Ones
I agree, so long as you go into it knowing that its a dice game not a real strategy game, and that its more about the experience and "ambiance", not the winning or losing.
Originally, I thought...

Re: My Favorite Games Are The Close Ones
I agree close games are the most fun, without doubt.
I think it's the randomness and order markers that make games close, even amongst differing skill levels.
Unfortunately, for me, dicescape...

Re: 4th>10th
the 10th just gives you that extra Melee option that the 4th doesnt. sometimes that can be a winner, but of course it depends on the map/scenario.

Re: 4th>10th
For sure, not making simple mistakes can make a big difference, and often seperates the beginners from the more experienced.
Unfortunately, even if you do everything right, you can still lose....

Re: Custom Q9 counter: Fuma Kotaro
Yea, I wouldnt cost him at more than 100.
I might actually change the Shadow Defense ability to be something like "When targeted by a Special Attack, roll the 20-sided die. If you roll a 6 or...

Re: Custom Q9 counter: Fuma Kotaro
Thats a good point spite. Maybe 90 is too low with that in mind.
I'm just not a big fan of high cost heroes that die very quickly.
I'd almost prefer to make him 110 or 120 with 4 Defense instead...

Re: Custom Q9 counter: Fuma Kotaro
Sgt Drake is a great example of why Fuma is worth less than 110.
He has an extra life (which at 3 defense is very important), is a Soldier, and cant be attacked by normal ranged (which is a HUGE...

Re: Custom Q9 counter: Fuma Kotaro
Hi guys! Great custom!
I took the liberty of creating a card using a D&D-Minis figure. I changed the wording a little to match the Nakitas, and used Phantom Walk as it was a known entity. I also...

Re: The Book of Agent Skahen
The one thing I do not like about Cover Fire, and its possible influence, is the odds of actually getting it.
Skahen only has an attack of 3. So unless you're attacking lowly 2 Defense figures,...
