Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
I don’t consider smart choices in design to be “politically correct”. If it was me, I would change the name to Warp Forge and make it so that it sucks in its target and warps it into an alternate dimension. Same battlefield effect, but no worries about tone.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
Same reason that in C3G 2.0 we're changing "destroyed" to "incapacitated." No real gameplay difference, but sells the theme of superheroes being superheroes instead of mass murderers.
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
I always find the idea of wanting apolitical things hilarious.
There’s no such thing as apolitical, everything has political value small or large. Changing a name is political, as is choosing to not change the name, or just making it have no official name somehow. Any choice made or not made is inherently political because we live in a connected world. It’s also funny that people desire apolitical things so badly. It’s like having masochism as a religion. I haven’t met a single person who thought the world couldn’t be improved, and yet so many people who think that being apolitical is some kind of virtue. “Oh I don’t want to rock the boat, what if I accidentally make things better?” Of course this is ignoring the people who claim to be apolitical to avoid having to admit that they just don’t like the politics that’s being shown, but that’s hilarious in it’s own way. Whatever lets people survive day to day I guess. |

Discussing a game’s terminology, which is how this has even popped up in this thread, is not indicative of any political position or political party affiliation, nor is discussing the merits of various names a form of virtue positioning. Although I find your post compelling, you must be operating under some other definition of “political”. “Heroscapers is too old for that crap.” ~IamBatman "Hahahah! You losers!

Aren't many graphic novels just collections of comic books?

Interesting that people still think the 2.0 version is a kids game.

I have no indication that it is any more complex than the original or that it has content that would make it inappropriate for the original demographic.

A collection of previously released comics is called a Trade Paperback. The term Graphic Novel is used loosely and people group TPBs into GNs a lot of the time when they're talking about them.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
You may be right...I still think of it as a game for younger folks but if it's going through a kick starter (Haslabs) then only adults can really pick it up.
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.
