What rules are you referring to? There are many, many different ways to run a Heroscape event--GenCon is GenCon, but its not the only way to have a Heroscape event.

Re: Oklahoma Heroscape Event Around NHSD
Iwayman-
I tried to google gencon Heroscape rules for my own perusal but did not come up with anything definite if you have a kink. Capsocrates as soon as you hammer out a definitive date I will make up flyers and approach the three FLGS in Tulsa. |

I'm assuming that unless I hear otherwise from you guys, the 13th, 20th, and 27th are all good dates with this much notice? Personally, I'm leaning towards the 13th or the 27th instead of the 20th. @IndustrialOkie: I would look in the GenCon subforum. Its a subforum of the Events subforum that this thread is in. I couldn't find any "rules," but they do have a list of different events they're doing. I want to keep things pretty simple, at this point. We can try some special formats if we decide to have another event in November or December.

Re: Oklahoma Heroscape Event Around NHSD
I'm pretty easy as long as I can bring my own army! Was just curious how these rules differed from the printed rules I'm used to. I'm good with whatever everyone decides regardless.

Re: Oklahoma Heroscape Event Around NHSD
Would you share the printed rules you're used to?

Re: Oklahoma Heroscape Event Around NHSD
I lost my original Heroscape rules long ago- I go by the online PDF "swarm of the marro" rules set.

Re: Oklahoma Heroscape Event Around NHSD
Ah, okay. So you're referring to game rules, not event format rules? As far as game rules go, we're definitely sticking with official rules.

I wouldn't know an event format rule from a Wizard of the Coast!

Re: Oklahoma Heroscape Event Around NHSD
Actually from what I read of last years GenCon Rules is from memeory and what they used was the DnD BftU Master set rule book, the last comprehensive update to the faq's (sept. 2010 release I believe was the last release), and they allowed Samual Brown but you had to have the printed card and it had to be verified by the judges since it was printed at home, and the figure had to be the official sculpt and had to be clearly designated as Samual Brown seperate form the 4th Mass (I have a painted one of the exact sculpt but am okay with any of the 4th mass being a stand in for Samual Brown as long as it is obvious during the game play that the figure used is Samual Brown.), and Marvel and DnD figures are allowed same as any of the other pieces.
Note: This is not a further push for Marvel on my part, I am just giving you what I know. (I have never actually played either Thanos or the silver surfer myself, but I have beat Thanos more than once). Oh and my Daughter is in favor of Marvel also (her heroscapers ID is Supergirl193). We tend to use Iron Man, Spider-Man, Captain America, and Venom the most but I have used the Hulk a couple of times too. |

Re: Oklahoma Heroscape Event Around NHSD
If I may chime in, I would like to attend if my calendar allows so it is about 50/50 that I can come with projects I have going on. I am really glad this is happening and hope it can continue to bring in people from all over the state and not just one area.
As far as "official rules", remember that the rules have grown over the years and when the D&D set came out, it included shadow tiles and figures that can make use of them. I hope that we mean all the official rules of Heroscape and not just the SotM rules. As far as Marvel, just my opinion, I think they were a great addition to to game as long as they are respected and people don't just try to show up and annoy people with the team you described above. With their point values, I don't think they are overpowered but certainly, if you take Silver Surfer and come up against a team that is all "melee" and no flight, it will be a total mismatch. With this thought in mind, I would recommend a compromise between the Pro and Anti Marvelers and make a tournament rule on max point value because most of the other Marvel figures have powers that already exist in some form on non-marvel figures of similar point values. If there were a 300 point cap per army figure you would do away with the Marvel figures that have no counterpart in the non Marvel world whatsoever. Anyway, I might possibly not be able to make it though I will try, this is just one opinion and one that I think is a reasonable compromise. Just for thought, does Gen-Con allow Marvel? I can't remember. Last edited by jwadeharrell; August 10th, 2012 at 05:42 PM. Reason: Rewording for clarity |

GenCon allows Marvel in certain events, but not the main events, I believe. There are many events/tournaments where Marvel is allowed, but there are also many (more, I think), where they are not allowed. They are not part of the Heroscape canon and were not tested with "classic" Heroscape figures.
