I think it would be cool. The Final Fantasy series has Final Fantasy Tactics, and while I'm not very good at it and it had a steep learning curve, it was fun. For those who aren't familiar with it, it uses themes from the series in a chess board-like almost heroscape-like terrain areas. Each character has limits to power, abilities, and movement. The player moves all its pieces according to the movement costs, etc then the computer moves its pieces and battles insue if applicable. Once a player clears that level he will move to the next level and so on. I couls see a Heroscape game working very like that.
