I'll bet you remember Kriegspiel and Gettysburg, too, then doncha? They were my introduction to wargaming.

Not one step backwards!

I've been meaning to say this for a while, but this is my all-time favorite thread on Heroscapers!

All of a sudden I feel young again. Thanks Rev.

PS But it's still hard being 44. I recommend avoiding it.
I'm turning 43 next week. I guess that means I'm catching up to you!

Re: Updated 10/16 - Before Heroscape

We need an "After Heroscape" thread. There have been plenty of offshoots now, including Summoner Wars (and PHG), Battleship Galaxies, the new Magic game, Marvel Legends figures bases, and of course the customs communities like C3G and HoSS.

Re: Updated 10/16 - Before Heroscape

nicely done. As a kid I played Ral Partha's Witch's Caldron, which is a mini game with squares verses hexes, but it had a similar feel ( no picking armies, just pre-set armies ).

Re: Updated 10/16 - Before Heroscape

@Aeston - I don't know the last time you were on here, but the OP is an awesome post that I've had lots of fun reading before. However, the fact all the images have disappeared detracts somewhat from it now, which is a real shame, as I reckon this thread is too interesting to not be preserved for posterity. Is there any chance we could tweak the OP to have the pics replaced?

Re: Updated 10/16 - Before Heroscape

Let's see, I might be able to figure out a quick way to do that.

6 RoTV, 3 SotM, 3 RttFF, 3 FotA, 3 VW, 3 TT, 3 TJ.
At least 3 of every common, 1 of every unique.

Re: Updated 10/16 - Before Heroscape

Updated: Fixed all the image links folks. Sorry, I didn't realize some of my server moves would have broken them.

I've gotten married and have had two kids since my Heroscapers days, but I still have my whole collection, play with my old crew once in a while, and am greatly looking forward to playing with my kids when they're old enough.

I'll check in again sometime soon.

Best,

Jason

Edit: wow, who would have guessed my 200th post would be about this... 12 years after joining the site.

Wow! Thanks! I love this thread!

Side note: some New England 'Scapers are planning an event soon, which you should check out if you're interested!

Awesome, chap! I didn't realistically think you'd still be around to sort this. Looks great!
