Re: Circus of the Absurd...Combad in Heroscape
I don't mean to be trite at all, but games of this type require an amount of "willing suspension of disbelief." The pieces themselves are, in reality, tokens on the board, and their actions are...

Re: What Makes a Man a Man?
It's not original to me, but I can't remember where I heard it. Like most proverbs, it's more profound if you can resist explaining it.

Re: Army of One (Card)
500 points of arrow gruts. Fast moving, 3 figs, range. You'll take terrible losses but if you can grab high ground and a glyph you can batter down tougher individual opponents.

Re: POLL: How important to you is the backstory?
I was going to write "Backstory? What backstory?" until someone else did. Seriously, I always thought it was a little lame. I got the point that HS was going to be a mash-up skirmish game, and I...

Re: Using Glyphs in a Different Way
We also use the glyphs as ways to customize a scenario. A unit, or one side, begins play with a glyph permanently in their possession for the duration of the game.

Re: Xena?
I've got one, but it's rough because my graphic arts skills are primitive. PM me with an email address and I'll send it to you. (I can't figure out how to post the card here.) There were cards for...

Re: The Chitauri ARE the Marro!
ROFL - Why didn't I think of that? I kept thinking "These guys don't look like Skrulls" while I was watching the movie! I gotta admit, there never was a movie that made me want to play Heroscape as...

Re: Could Netrunner be a good omen?
What's the Dust Tactics basic set market for? Those minis are unpainted, and the map is just printed. I think the similarities and differences are worth considering to estimate a price. Plus, the...

Re: Could Netrunner be a good omen?
I think that if HS were to return, it would be marketed in the niche gaming market: gaming stores and online. Would it be unreasonable to expect $100 -$120 for a new master set, with boosters in the...

I disagree. This thread belongs in "Heroscape, General" because it's about a common problem in groups, gaming groups included. People bring their personalities with them when they game, including...

Re: Gary's Heroscape Site
That's very cool TMRose. When my son first got the game Christmas 2004, when he was 8 years old, we played 4 or 5 Basic Games.
I still feel there is a lot of potential in the Basic Game, but...
