DOW really puts out some nice games. I'll definitely be buying this one.

Apparently some people think Heroscape and Battlelore are simliar enough that it only warrants having one of them.
There is a thread on BGG about selling Heroscape to get Battlelore...wtf... http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/125886/page/1 |

The games are definitely not the same. I play and enjoy Commands and Colors: Ancients, which uses the same system as BattleLore, and it is very different from Heroscape. That thread on BGG is the result of ignorance, plain and simple.

Maybe we can make a Heroscapers of Catan with resource generation and wooden cubes. That might bring some of the eurogamers into the fold.

I'm a huge fan of Eurogames. Every year for the past 10 or so I've been able to go to the big Eurogames event at Essen, buying and playing lots of new Eurogames (even competing in the team championships once, by pretending to be an Italian - the Italians did very, very badly that year ...)
I'm also prety much an "American games" hater - you cannot call something with 500 cardboard counters a "wargame" (wargames are played with miniatures), and they rarely manage to be much of a game. The thought of playing ASL leaves me with a rash; even the thought of reasing another Avalon Hill rulebook gets me worried, and don't get me started on mainstream crud like Game of Life or Monopoly. But Heroscape isn't like those games. And it's *nothing* like Memoir 44 or any other Command & Colours game, so why people think that they'd have to sell HS to buy BL is beyond me. I'm *probably* going to get both. Two different games, with different aims and mechanics. But if a silly BGGer wants to flog me his HS stuff, I can live with that |
