I wonder if we will get to see all the cards before we have to fund this thing....

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

Sweet battle-bugs, skyknight; you have an ant problem recently? This aesthetic is delightfully horrific.

Their insectoid appearance can be deceiving at first, leading many to believe them barbaric and crude, base things of rage and slaughter. In contrary to that belief however, The Craven Court possess a highly advanced intelligence and fight with iron discipline to uphold and maintain their society against their enemies. Their “hives” are kept hidden from all outsiders, and it is believed those court members encountered on Valhalla are comprised entirely of a sort of warrior caste. Leveraging their organically bio-engineered weapons and abilities, Revna utilizes The Craven Court’s unique military tactics on the battlefield to great effect, feinting army compositions, and even spawning new reinforcements as the battle unfolds, and tactics change to meet the moment.

We've already gotten a full shot of the spider in the bottom-right... I'd have posted it then, if I had known its relevance.

New theory: The Craven Hive is installed in the body of the giant spider, and can be seen right here.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

I'm super curious as to how this thing will be represented in game. It's current scaling makes it as large as most tournament maps. This would also be so Intimidating to actually paint as well.

I actually think the scale image that Encarmine posted with a human was a troll-post.

It could be the scale for the character size in lore. Figures are shrunk down to make them playable while sacrificing what they actually look like. Miming and Deathwalker 9000 are probably much larger relative to humans than what their figures imply

I think it's been implied that the past figures we have are all to scale. Look at figures like Su-Bak-Na or Grimnak. They're on Huge mounts, but the actual Marro or Grut figure is scaled properly to the rest of the units. I'm certain that the Deathwalker we see is the Deathwalker there is scale-wise.

I have been wondering that myself. I have not bothered backing several Kickstarter Games when rulebooks have not been released during the campaign. You want my money, you need to tell me what exactly I am buying.

Or a huge magnifying glass!

Just when you thought it was all right, someone made it alright.

Good trades with - Porkins / xraine69 / mac122 (x2) / frylock / Ztimster (x2) and probably others I forgotten to mention...sorry.
