The Holocron of Moisture Farms
The Holocron of Moisture Farms Map HoSS Master Set - A New Hope A HoSS Competitive Map Original design by Typhon2222 Required sets: 2 BftU ______________________________________________________________ Map Bio - Tatooine. Desert planet of sand and rock, where a few hardy settlers eke out a harsh existence amidst the watelands on their moisture farms. Using moisture vaporators, they collect precious molecules of water from the arid atmosphere and pump them into underground chambers where, protected from the scorching heat of Tatooine's twin suns, crops can be raised. But who will defend them as the arm of the Empire grows longer?.... ______________________________________________________________ -Special rules and Clarifications- • OPTIONAL TATOOINE RULE: At the end of each round, roll the 20-sided die once for each figure you control. If you roll an 18 or higher, that figure receives one unblockable wound. Tusken Raiders, Jawas, Droids and figures on the Moisture Vaporator Glyph are not affected by this optional rule. ______________________________________________________________ -Strategy, Tactics and Tips- • TBA -Heroscapers Community Contributions- • First playtest: Arch-Vile • Second playtest: Yodaking • Third playtest: Heroscaper2010 • Fourth playtest: Arch-Vile • Fifth playtest: Heroscaper2010 • Map created by: Typhon2222 Last edited by Porkins; February 22nd, 2018 at 12:32 AM. |

Re: The Holocron of Moisture Farms
I really like the optional Tatooine scenario rule! Really adds to the theme. Provides incentive to grab the glyphs too.
Out of curiosity, how did you playtesters find the map? |

Re: The Holocron of Moisture Farms
I, unfortunately, don't have two BftU sets so I was unable to build this map, but the playtesters that did play it, loved it. Thanks for designing such a beautiful map for us!

Re: The Holocron of Moisture Farms
I loved the map! Even though the outcome of both:
I played Tuskens x8 (400pts) vs. Obi-Wan + Luke + C-3PO + R2 (280) and the Tuskens crushed both times (winning with at least half of their army left). I'd like to try some Imperials vs. Obi-Wan + Luke + 3PO + R2 sometimes. It would seem thematic... "These blast marks are far too accurate for Tusken Raiders." Maybe this time Luke won't be too late to save his Aunt and Uncle... |

I proxied the map using RotV + Marvel & Castle pillars for the rocks, and I found it really fun.

Re: The Holocron of Moisture Farms
Oh nice, so glad to hear it played out well for you gents.
I tried to design something that would give characters with Force Leap some fun options. Hope it worked out. A wee question: is the PDF of the build instructions going to be posted sometime? |

(It will probably be Monday. In the meantime, you can find the build instructions in the Rulebook.) |

Re: The Holocron of Moisture Farms
Gents, I know that you tweaked the original version of Moisture Farms for aesthetic reasons, to make more sand and less rock visible. Thumbs up on that. Only problem though is that this tweaked version can't be built with only 2x BftU. That MS doesn't include any 3-hex Sand tiles.
Also seems that this version includes a single extra 1-hex Dungeon tile on the bottom layer. |
