Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

As far as Friday's reveal goes, I'm super interested in seeing how the Major Q10 accident and Raelin's repossession come into play after Swarm of the Marro's concluding incident

Is there a place where one can view the lore that follows this game? I know back in the OG days, there was Thormun’s Journal and character bios on the official Heroscape website, but my teenaged brain didn’t care about the backstory back then, while my now nearly 34 year old brain wants to know everything about everything 😬

Check the downloads section, there was a compendium written with the references we got and updated regularly


I have plans for a personal project to help cover what I know as well, so hopefully I can share that soon

It didn’t even register in my brain that it’s a manticore, but on second glance, yep! Very cool take on the beast. I wonder what other never-released concepts will get spun out into AoA!

I never expected the manticore to be Evil Raelin’s steed.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

In the News Thread it says something about Terrain Previews next week.

YES PLEASE!!!


And as I just read about the playtesters (lucky chaps!), I wondered how much playtesting will consider the OldScape. I can imagine if something worked well with all the NewScape and there was some kind of problem with maybe a single or a couple of old units that they might just wave it through - probably most of the customers won't have those units anyways. That does make it difficult to do tournaments etc.

It's like football with swords or LARPing without the geeky stuff. In other words, it's awesomely perfect!

As it happens, I have a quote about that (don't I always?).

AoA and classic are one game

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

Dok is correct there - it is one game - but we have not tested anything against C3V units and have no plans to do so.

That said, for those thirsting for some 'Scape (and who do not already know), check out the C3V. Links in my sig. It is some A+ material added to the Heroscape universe.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

Raelin 3.0 looks interesting. I'm guessing she'll lack her iconic defensive aura, as that was a property of her old spear, which she no longer wields. Maybe she'll be more similar to Grimnak, with a small morale-based aura and a mount-related offensive power.
