Re: How to Build a Heroscape Map From Scratch!
I haven't done this yet but I'm sure a Dremel could do all the cutting, but I'm not so sure you'd like the results. Even using the larger fiberglass reinforced cutoff wheels you're going to have a...

Re: Teaching the Game... Would like suggestions
I believe this to be a bad idea. A small map, in my experience, is much better for newbies. I suggest a tournament map.
Maybe eventually an ok idea, but not to start with.
I'd keep them...

Re: How to Build a Heroscape Map From Scratch!
Looks like a really great way to build a lightweight map that would travel easily (or more easily than a normal map sitting on a piece of foam core in the trunk of the car).
I would be interested...

Re: 4 Way Battle: Who Would Win?
Not really fond of any of those choices... if I had to pick I'd probably go with gladiators for ease of order marker management.
However, if it's 595 points and must be an all melee army, I'd go...

Hmmm... it's been a while since I gave the rules a good through reading, but I thought that you didn't have to be able to stop on the hexes you traveled through. I thought I recalled an example of...

How do you handle partial hexes?
I've attempted in the past to create "interior" type maps using the castle pieces, I found this unsatisfying as it used up a lot of real estate, as shown below:

Re: Heroscape without Hexes?
I don't see there being any LoS issues, except the regular arguments that arise. I could make overhangs as well, though I don't plan on it.
Falling damage is something I hadn't thought of, but I...

Anyway, the idea that I've been mulling over is playing HS on...

It was a landslide victory for the Marro.
The Vydar invaders had to board the ship through the 2 entrances at the rear of the ship, into the cargo area.

The "space pirates" idea has got us wanting to do a "boarding party" invasion again.
