Heroscape, What about boosters? What about terrain boosters?

[Roland1919]

Seeing as wizards will be handling the future of HeroScape I think we need a new direction. I would love to see booster packs with rares just like Heroclix, MK, D&D. Heroscape is clearly better that all of the aforementioned and "chasing" rares would be fun I>M>O as would terrain boosters like healing wells and power shrines and telewarps and on and on. this game should, can and will only get better over time.

The only way to effectively do Rares in Heroscape would be to make it blind purchase. No thank you on the blind purchase aspect. It would make this game worse, not better. The closet things we have to Rares are exclusives. Let's leave it at that.

Nothing is rare (in theory). That's one of my favorite things about this game.

Edit- And what's with the name of this thread? It doesn't seem to relate to the topic...

Sorry, can't stand blind purchases. This is what I like about Heroscape. I can "see" it, and I know what I"m getting. I bought a few Heroclix (to help expand the marvelscape) and a few of the D&D "Against the Giants" minis, and was really turned off by the "randomness" of the packaging. It may be for some, but its not me. I guess I'm spoiled by Heroscape. I just like to "see" what I'm actually getting.

If HeroScape is better than them, why make it like them?

But in practice waves 1+2 are rare o.O.

I'm in the "Keep the window on the box" camp. It would suck if I had to go through four packs to get one thing I want. I hardly have enough money to buy it in the first place!

Yes! You wouldn't believe how much I would hate it if I went to Walmart and bought five blind boosters of Nakita Agents. Yuck. I would use one for a repaint though!

OK, OK, not a popular idea but what about accessories like warps, healing shrines, in other words interactable terrain pieces. I see a lot of great customs on EBAY but it would be nice if there were official ones.

There's nothing wrong with that, but why on Earth should they make them rare? Why doesn't everyone get a chance to have some?

I don't like that idea at all. So no thanks.

Like Woo, Nerak, EOV, Hawthorne, and now Agent Skahen.
