Heroscape Genres in the Age of Fanscape (C3V and SoV incl.)

I'm not sure the Marro can so easily be classified as Sci-fi. I mean, they have a witch! more like Sci-Fi/Fantasy.

Well then I stand corrected. And this is @Prometheus, in the Dune books they had witches too, so I could see the Marro like that maybe.

Yes, I don't think being a witch means being fantasy-based necessarily. Sure, it can, but it doesn't have to. And all the figures blur lines. Dead Eye is mostly a historical figure, but he has a magic rifle (Ullar Enhanced). Same thing for Finn--an Earth-born Viking, who now has a magic sword in Valhalla.

The Valhalla world (and Scape in general) is more Fantasy than anything else and that Fantasy leaks into a lot of the units and their origins, etc. But the Marro are genetic-blending "aliens" with tech weapons and mental powers. Sure, mental powers can looks like magic and aliens who encounter magic artifacts can wield magic powers, but at the core of the concept of the Marro are sci-fi "aliens," from what I see.

It has been a really long time since I have looked through this thread. There are a lot of new figures that need to be added into your groupings. In looking at the Public Minatre Information thread for the C3V it is fun to notice the historical unit tha are comming down the pipe line.
