Online HS How-to-play and Question Dump
The following tutorial discusses the use of the HS Online app, in conjunction with Google Docs, to play games of Heroscape online. It's long and detailed, but really the process is pretty simple. Post any questions you have in this thread.
What you will need:
First, login to Google Docs. Then, go to the Online HS Maps & Figures. When you find the map template you want to play on, click File>Make a copy (while viewing the template), re-name it, and hit OK.

If you want others to be able to view the map, go to File>Share. Or, you can click on Share at the top right of the document:

Then, do one of two things (the first is slightly easier, the second slightly better): 1. Hit "Change" next to "Private" and change it to "Anyone with the link" and "Can edit."

2. Hit "Change" next to "Private" and change it to "Anyone with the link" and "Can view," hit "Save," and then put the email address(es) of the other players into the "Add people" box.

Now go back to the Maps & Figures and go to the Figure template you that want to get figures from. Once there:
If you can't find a figure you need, PM awesomeunleashed a request for it. In the meantime, use a proxy. A couple more things:
https://www.heroscapers.com/ohs/[your game name] Now, you can create the full game link. Here's the format: https://www.heroscapers.com/ohs/index.php?log=[your game name]&gdoc=[your Google Doc string] Give this link to anyone who will need to access you game, and they will be able to automatically come into the app with the correct chat log and map. The use of either Skype or Google Hangout is highly recommended, as it emulates the verbal banter that is usually found in real-world games. You can also use the HS Online app for SoloScape. The best way to do this is to open up the game in two different browsers (Player 1 in one window; Player 2 in another). You can then track Order Markers and roll dice separately for each "player."
