Re: Welcome to C3G!!!
I just recently bought a clix Venom figure, before that I used the Hasbro one for both cards. I still only use the Hasbro Hulk figure for both cards, that sculpt is awesome. As for the question to play them with Classic Scape or not, I do not mix the two anymore. They can be mixed, I just found it not to be as much fun that way. The problem is that Classic Scape is all about about the squads, so much so that your Superheroes get taken down by a handful of puny minions which can be rather disappointing. The C3G squads are better balanced such that they are still useful but do not overshadow the heroes. Even so, I personally prefer to have Hero vs. Villain battles for the most part.

2. I actually play the Hasbro Dr. Doom more than the C3G version 3. I didn't buy multiple versions of the same characters...except for Iron Man once Mark V came out. I use all the Hasbro versions for their C3G counterparts. I also for instance only have one Batman that I use for all 3 Bruce Wayne figures, one Superman...etc. I didn't have any castle sets for a long time and was fine. Heck I didn't have any tiles for a long time and created my own city...if you search you can probably find my super hero city thread. Point is have fun with what you have and don't worry about what you don't have until you are ready to expand. Just have fun. Would I want it to be everything I love...sure...but that's just not realistic so I'm going to focus on finding things that will make me unhappy and work on fixing those. |

Re: Welcome to C3G!!!
The 'official' maps are just options based on experience, which are really only required when play testing. What kind of map you want to play on is up to you. C3G uses a lot more castles pieces than Classic maps for theme reasons, plus the fact that so many figures have flying/leaping/teleporting/etc. in C3G. If you follow the Cityscape and My Custom Terrain (page 8 for modern city stuff) links at the bottom of this post you can find ideas for how to add to your maps without hunting down the official terrain.

Re: Welcome to C3G!!!
Save your money.
If I have my way you will be able to build your own city maps with zero map pieces, though it would require at least a base map which could be printed.

Re: Welcome to C3G!!!
A castle set or two will easily allow you to build more "official" C3G maps, but it's not at all necessary to play C3G. It's a nice set to have, and it's still relatively cheap, but it's not something you have to have if you don't want it.

Re: Welcome to C3G!!!
Well thanks for all the advise. It would be nice to have a castle set or two but I was hoping to find a SotM set for a reasonable price. I feel like I would be getting more bang for my buck with that set, as I would have to choose between the two.

Re: Welcome to C3G!!!
Really, when it comes to terrain, just find what you can find within your budget. None of the maps are "must haves." They're all just fun if you want and can.
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: Welcome to C3G!!!
Its too bad that these Infinity sets do not come with hexes printed on them as they look like they would be cool for the C3G project.

Re: Welcome to C3G!!!
It would be a bit tedious but you could draw in hexes.
You can use glyphs(nice for the straight edge) or a single hex for smaller areas. You can make a larger template by tracing around a standard card(the same size a 7hex piece) on a piece of cardboard, then cut out the center hex. This allows you to trace out your lines fairly quickly. Someday I am going to try to create a large template that I could lay down and just blast with some spray paint. japes is working on urban printed maps and I am constructing buildings so we should be able to simulate that set-up eventually. Though ours will not be quite that high quality not being plastic but they will be cheaper. If you poke around you can find files to print 'base' hex maps. They free up a lot of hexes and make for easier map set-up.

Re: Welcome to C3G!!!
Is there a PDF with all the glyph stickers on it? If not, are there any glyphs I should be printing multiple of?

I also created multiples of Green Kryptonite, Replicator, Shield Belt, Lazarus Pit, and Temporal Displacement. Nega Bands have two figures that use them so if you want to use them both in the same army you'd need two.
