The map should be a swamp/jungle based map, and custom units are obviously permitted. How you design the map is up to you too.

I think this needs to be a 4 player game with the raptorians being represented as well.

I know you've created a ton of videos, but somehow I've never actually tuned in. Just watched my first one a bit ago and thoroughly enjoyed it! I really like the editing. It speeds the game up and really makes it watchable. Very nicely done!

The one I watched was the totally random armies on the shrine map. I noticed a rule difference in leaving engagements in how it would be played at my house. Towards the end (at 19:55) when you moved Charos over the WL, you rolled for leaving engagement. Was there a figure I couldn't see? Or did you roll because he flew over the WL?

I never would have considered that leaving engagement. The rules about leaving an engagement are that it occurs "as soon as you move away from [a figure that you're engaged with] (onto a space that's not adjacent to it)". Neither of those are true. It is not moving away. It is not moving onto a space that's not adjacent to it.

Is there something I'm missing and have been playing that wrong? Or a mistake in your game?

(Also, just a tidbit... You are free to call him what you want and pronunciations are really debatable in Heroscape, but Charos was intended to be "Car-os". It's apparently one of the few pronunciations Hasbro actually commented on.)

Great video! I will be checking out more. Thanks!

They played that right. If you start flying while engaged with another figure, you immediately take a leaving engagement attack, even if you stay on/above the spaces next to that figure for your whole movement.

Oh, and I still say Charos like Sir Heroscape does. Can't break my habit.

Wow. We've been playing it wrong then. That seems really crazy and is contradictory to what the rulebook says in leaving engagement section. I don't mean to be "that guy", but is there a section in the rulebook that covers this exception?

Thanks!

Ok nevermind. This makes more sense the more I think about it. It must have been included in an FAQ or something for clarity on special powers.

Anytime Flying is used, it must trigger leaving an engagement to keep the rules straight forward. If, for example, the figure you're engaged to was standing directly under a 1 hex wide bridge and you flew over it to the other side of that figure, you would thematically be disengaging since there is a bridge between you during that movement. Since flying can take you as high as you want to go, the only way to keep it streamlined is to say: if you fly, you leave engagement.

Don't want to devolve this thread into a rules discussion. I get it. Thanks for the help!

Not to further hijack the thread, but I just wanted to point out that it's in the Flying power. The last line always says "When [name] begins to fly, if he is engaged he will take any leaving engagement attacks." So as soon as you turn Flying "on," you take the attacks. It's often missed though and it's good to clarify every once in a while.

Wow! I really don't know how I missed that. I suppose Flying is just so easy to understand that there has never been a need to dissect the wording of it. And shame on me for not looking there first.

Embarrassing. Thanks for pointing that out though. I often play with someone who likes me to be able to back these things up with the rulebook. No need to with it right on the card! RTFC!!
