Some Encouraging News

Just a FYI,

Was speaking to a source who "Knows" people in the industry, and that 2 of his sources both confirm the negotiations with hasbro over the rights to heroscape.

He did mention(For all you strictly classic fans) that *If* sold, it would not include the DND branding. And the sale looks like it will take 6-8 months for it to be concluded. He wouldn't speak about who the companies that are trying to buy the rights. Anyways just thought I'd pass it along.

Have you tried Hexscape? 3D Heroscape Multiplayer Battle program!

Looking for a C3V/SOV miniature? Try one of these sites.

Re: Some Encouraging News

I think I'll wait to get my hopes up until there is actual, official evidence. Thanks for the heads-up though!

Re: Some Encouraging News

Yeah! More generic, detail-less anecdotes from anonymous sources which may or may not lead to anything concrete for us to get our hopes up for!!!! And apparently we have 6-8 months more to look forward to!

Good trades with SirGalahad, Nano*22, delphic, Talyn, Tartandoc, langfordrocks.

Re: Some Encouraging News

Hey - I was speaking to a source about the same thing yesterday - would it happen to be the 'source' that works close to you?

Thanks for the heads up. I'm a little pessimistic when I hear news like this. We've already witnessed what happens to the game once another company takes it over. I'm scared to think it could go down a darker path.

Oh, well. Here's to seeing what comes down the pike.

Heroscape is a gateway into a wonderful world of games that I never would've known existed otherwise.

Re: Some Encouraging News

I appreciate some kind of news, even if it's vague. It's better than all the pure speculation. Thanks!

Re: Some Encouraging News

Well, it's not enough to make me excited at this point, but any hope at all of HeroScape products continuing to survive definitely brighten my day.

I might not post often or contribute to the community, but I play HeroScape and I love what HeroScapers does here.

Re: Some Encouraging News

I guess I am unfamiliar with cases in which WotC has sold properties. They usually just buy games or licences and then let them die.

Sounds like a strange business plan. Wonder how it is working for them.

Re: Some Encouraging News

Well, by the time the decision is made, I'll be at basic. Hopefully, I'll have good news to hear afterwards!
