Re: Insight into why Heroscape was dropped
They could also keep it just to pillage for other games. Am I remembering right that there is a patent on the way that the terrain interlocks? They could avoid selling off the game not so that they...

Re: How much could a HeroScape revival change?
I wouldn't buy any new stuff unless all my old figures and terrain pieces were 100% compatible. I've invested so much into the old stuff that starting over is really not acceptable. Unfortunately, I...

Re: Why Hasbro is missing the boat...
It's not just about turning a profit, it's about turning enough of a profit. So, if they make $10,000 net reprinting wave 4 maybe it's not even worth the effort. Furthermore, it doesn't drive sales...

Re: Questioning myself.
I think the latest essentials revision of 4th edition is better than the original, though some people disagree. The main problem with 4th edition is that battles take a very, very, very, very long...

Re: Speeding up Massive 'Scape
I'm not sure I like the idea of all units moving without attacking once the battle has already been joined. I could see a rule like this helping out in an interesting way:

Re: List of Holes Remaining in Unit Design
Thanks for the thoughts. I agree with a lot of your points and like your ideas. Why do you disagree with the idea behind the "units that need a boost" part of the list?

Re: Cheer Up Heroscapers!~NEWS FLASH!
But to be fair, FFG also put out an Upgrade Kit to allow the older version (4th edition) to work with their expansions (4th Edition revised).[/QUOTE]

Re: Cheer Up Heroscapers!~NEWS FLASH!
It sounds like if a new company got a hold of it they might release a new version or a different game with the same spirit. If this made all of the old figures obsolete I'm not sure I'd want to...
