Re: HeroScape is coming back!

Wow! I haven't been logged in for 12 years. Surprised I remember my password. I am excited Heroscape is coming back. I would check the sight every 6 months or so to check out the customs, but I would just lurk.
As Renegade is looking for suggestions:
Egyptians, pirates, confederates and Atlanteans
I would love a grut on a triceratops, chariots manned or unmanned, a Chinese type dragon and an Atlantean riding a shark.
Also if there is a new master set it should be a box of figures and a box of terrain inside another box. That way you can sell terrain, figures separately and still have a starter set for new players. Also make the order markers either red (for Utgar), purple (for Aquilla) or Orange (for Einar). As each previous set had order markers that corresponded with a general's color.

Killing is my business, and business is good.

An O'Sixer, nice. Welcome back.

A cloud can change its semblance, yet retain its will
With the intimacy of destruction, One knows what it is to be alive
The empty sky holds no reflection, for sorrow

I'm hoping we'll see some original designers make guest appearances. I don't expect CVN to be working on the game because he's with AH, but I don't see why he couldn't be a panel guest.

He could leave his job at AH between now and then. Here's to hoping!

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

Even if CVN doesn't work fulltime with Renegade, it's possible there's something he could contribute via contract work. It would be nice to have him on board in some capacity

From the "Question Dump" thread:

This is one of those muddy areas we tackled head on in C3G 2.0 and created distinct terms for so we could sort these things out. Seems crazy to ask the end user to use an ability to move their figure but not use a "before moving" ability they have when they do.
It's also something that the C3V has been discplined with. If you look through its body of work, you will see internal consistency with timing (and other technical matters).

The game was conceived and developed as a family game, for parents to get to play with their kids. The original designers simply did not perpare it for this type of close examination.
It's great Renegade is picking up the torch with the new AoA designs. But just creating new stuff is half the battle. I hope someone plans to take a long hard look at ALL the Army Cards and Rulebooks in existence.

Many cards could use a reprint for various reasons. 1) Errata from the FAQ. 2) Inconsistent wording. 3) Better terminology and wording using fanbase customs as examples. 4) Are they planning to move forward with Destructible Objects. If so, this opens up a somewhat messy can of worms.

Then there's the rulebook(s)... which need updates for the same reasons, and others that I haven't mentioned.

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

I would love to see a Heroscape Second Edition similar to what X-wing Miniature Game did. Clean things up and issue new unit cards for existing figures. Perhaps even take points values off the cards and make them digital (gasp).

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

If Renegade plans to do any Army Card reprints, I would like to request a reprint of the card for Venoc Warlord. I think perhaps it's about time we get a unique name that sounds more threatening than Mittens

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

It would be nice to see reprints, even if they were new sculpts and unpainted - it would just be nice to have older units available to new players.
