10$ on the opposite.

-The goal of this product it to attract Magic players (like they didn't pay enough yet ). I don't think they cares as much as painted figures as we do.

-Plus, the battlefield looks way more than a board game than Heroscape one, non-painted figures aren't such a big deal for this kind of board games.

-They're not grey but painted in the color of their faction.

I just quoted for people who eventually missed it.

Knowing WotC, in my opinion "five painted figures" = "the others figures will not be painted".

I believe you are right for the right reason, Foudzing, and that's how you get an A.

In the video @Jim posted, did anyone else notice the "firecats" are almost the same as Deathstalkers? Even the ability seems to be ripped off of Maul.

Re: Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game (Looks HeroScap

You guys are crazy. Magic is a fantastic game. This basically combines my two favorite games into one. So excited!

Looking for a way to get casual players involved in Heroscape? Do your opponents lack the interest or knowledge to build/draft their own armies? If so, check out Project 500!

Re: Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game (Looks HeroScap

Magic the Blathering. Sadly, I am less enthused after watching the video. Doesn't look like much usable terrain.

Re: Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game (Looks HeroScap

I am optimistic. There is a lot of hey, I can grab a few more figures that already have the right bases and a little terrain with it. Plus the potential to convert magic players is awesome.

At the very least this is a little spice to add to the game.

Thanks @superfrog for mentioning this thread. We should apply for an internship at WotC this summer for the very slight chance we can sneak something into this game!

Re: Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game (Looks HeroScap

I'm so excited for this as well. I hope the Magic moniker will make it so the game will NOT die after one expansion but then again I thought Heroscape would last longer with D&D.

Any new strategy board game with prepainted minis is awesome though, and we may get new Heroscape terrain!
