Re: HeroScape is coming back!

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

This is so foundational to my entire Heroscape experience. I remember drooling over the RotV box in Target those two decades ago, but didn't buy it because I had no idea when I would find...

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

I noticed the age jump as well. The basic rules haven't gotten more complicated, have they? Either they didn't have time to get an 8-year-old's input, or they think 14+ will sell better (like how...

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

I don’t think there’s anything particularly ‘complex’ about cards that have too many abilities crowding the card space, I just think they’re bothersome, and for me, I find them less interesting than...

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

I fully recognize that the world of board games and the market for Heroscape has matured. Complexity is almost a badge of honor nowadays, but give me Krav and Syvarris who do a great job representing...

I think it’s a very thin argument to use flying as a form of barrier. No ability should be used in such...

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

Practicing restraint when designing is an important discipline. If a designer has the right tools though, it makes this task easier. Cluttering up a card with a common ability like flying actually...

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

Mezzodemons were one of my designs. I set out to create a multi-wound squad unit but within the confines of our design parameters (no wound tokens on the battlefield period!). Can’t put wound markers...

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

Didn't Craig work on Arena of the Planeswalkers? A bunch of those squads have multiple life points (and I rather like the small red damage cubes).[/QUOTE]Perhaps he had different design goals. MTG is...

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

I’m sure you recall that’s exactly why we never created them in the past. In fact, it was a hard rule. Craig did not want any extra stuff cluttering up the battlefield.

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

I imagine there will be people that buy multiples of sets for the walls and wellspring water, so I’m sure there will be extra unique figures available secondhand.[/QUOTE]

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

I wish I could just buy the figures I want and none of the other stuff. Unfortunately, as it stands, I’m going to pass on buying any of this.

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion

Two problems with that. First, we're under NDAs, so we really can't say anything that hasn't been said publicly by Avalon Hill. Second, we don't actually know anything either. As an outside...

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion

Inflating the number of copies you’re pledging because you know it won’t fund, is sending the wrong message. It’s sending a false signal to Hasbro. I’m not saying it’s wrong in a moral sense, or that...

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion

I wonder if this is primarily pointing at the Magic 30th anniversary boosters that were announced at $1,000?

This is something about corporate leadership I don’t get. If something is working and...

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion

The problem wasn't the inclusion of new stuff, it was the inclusion of so much new stuff and the complete omission of the separate fantasy, historic, and sci-fi elements. If there had been some...
