Please don't flameme for this but I've never liked Marvel or any superheros for that matter. I will not be buying it. I wish they'ed just stick to classic HS. However I do see how Marvel helps bring in others to the game thus, making it last longer.

I think they should release at least one expansion to test the waters. Theoretical number crunching isn't always what it is cracked up to be.

Remember what Disraeli wrote:

'There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.'

I'm with STAROCEAN, I don't hate Marvel but I'm not "into it" either. Plus I can't afford both, and I'd rather have the classic.

I'll buy these unless WOTC says that they will be the last set, then I won't, as I don't want to field questions from new players for the rest of my life about where Mister Fantastic is.

I'm definately more of a classic fan. I don't think there's as much strategy involved when your entire army is one guy. "Gee, I wonder where I'm going to put my order markers." Personally, I enjoy seeing the battlefield littered with potentially dozens of figures. We do have one Marvel masterset, and do play it from time to time, but it just doesn't seem to bring much to the table. Of course part of that is because there aren't any other sets out yet to add to it. I may never become a huge fan of Marvel, but the more figures you add to it, the better it can potentially get.

That being said, I am looking forward to checking out the new cards!

I agree. Testing the waters seems smart. I bet the Marvel set will start selling better, with these out, and interest will grow. Plus, I am glad to have Marvel if for no other reason than it brought us one more player to our group--he started with Marvel and then found classic--and us!

I am definitely a classic fan and most games are pure classic, but these bring a fun dimension and aspect to the game (plus, my kids love them!). A chance for variation that is part of what makes HS so much fun.

EDIT: jcb231, I'm with you on the whole Fantastic Three thing...

We have one player that got into Heroscape predominately because of the Marvel release. He now uses some of the HC stuff to support his MC figures. Besides I love mixing both into games as it gives a nice variety of powers and it is fun to see Cap running around with some Microcorp agents or the KMA. Plus I love the smell of acid melted Iron Man in the morning (go Braxas) !!!

I think my avatar speaks for itself here.

If I believed in gods, I'd be praying to them right now to get Wal-Mart to agree to carry Marvelscape so that the game isn't stillborn like this. I do agree with others here that waves consisting of two packs of uniques does make Marvelscape a harder sell. All the more reason to start incorporating common squads into the game.

My few opinions about the set

1- I hope that it is a big expansion/ master set like the first one is. It is much easyer to get them all in one big package. Allong with another distructable object

2- I like the Torch's sculp of half fire/human, but his hair looks like udder crap

3- The Thing needs to be a little bigger

4- Punishers sculpt still needs a little 'Pizzaz'

5-Doc Ock would look cooler if he was walking on his extra legs

I think that is all

I hate Marvel!!!! Heroscape was slightly ruined when Marvel came out. I would never buy Marvel and I thin WOTC should discontinue it.

No, I don't have the money for both Classic and Marvel. I hope to some day but just can't right now.
