Haha, this makes me think of some of the reffing experiences I've had w/ Heroscape ... it's difficult when players start to drop the lines about literalities in regard to the rules; "That couldn't happen to Superman" or "That rule doesn't make sense for [Insert any character]."

I then have to give my "it's just a game, let's have fun" speech.
In the absence of a clarifying rulebook or accessible computer to look it up, the only rational thing to do is imagine what makes the most sense. So I cannot blame the guy, if I had no previous knowledge of the subject I might have agreed with him. But to be honest, the ability to fly has nothing to do with the ability to be thrown. It might effect how far or how hard you land but positive acceleration in one direction is not immediately negated by negative acceleration in the opposite direction.

The flyer would need to fly in the opposite direction that they were thrown to slow down their speed of movement. Superman for instance might be able to halt his trajectory after just a few meters but he would still be thrown.

So for the basis to be that "flying figures cannot be thrown" Even a literal interpretation leads you to a "yes they can" position.

Re: Welcome to C3G!!!

Don't try to roleplay the cards. Do what it says on the powers, and not anything else. If the powers don't say that flying figures are an exception, they're not an exception.

C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

1) Although I don't think there is any one file that has all the cards (which would be a freakin' HUGE file), the PDF Generator in the 2nd post of this thread will pull together whichever ones you need to print.

2) As far as this part, you just have to ask yourself, 'How OCD am I?' It's probably close to 50-50 with people pullling flying figures off their stands. There are a few where it's encouraged to leave the figure on the stand (like Mr. Mxy, who would look really weird sitting on the ground). Same with the Clix bases. The biggest gameplay reason for proper bases is being able to fit on ladders, so as long as that's taken care of, the rest is a function of your OCD.

The BIG IDEA with this whole project is just to have fun. As long as you're doing that, then how the cards and figures look should be secondary.
Thanks for the help. That pdf generator is super cool. I have a couple of questions though about it.

1) When I open the pdf that was created and size it to 100% the cards are bigger than normal heroscape cards. Is that they way they are supposed to print out, bigger I mean? Or when printing them will they turn out as normal size?

2) I noticed there is a reverse pdf generator and so of course I clicked it and when I opened the pdf it appears to be of card backs(which is actually super nice). So my question is how do I created a pdf with my 3 units on it and at the same time make it so that it prints the backs on the cards? Is this something the person at Officemax can do for me? (I'd guess it means printing off the 3 unit sheet, then flipping it over and printing the card back images - is that right?)

Yeah, I'm a bit OCD when it comes to things looking uniform and so I just got through placing an order with Impact Miniatures for their bases. Also, if you guys didn't know you can order stickers from them as well, they sell 15 bases with 15 stickers for $3.00. Shipping on 6 sets ordered was $4.50 fyi.

Thanks again for all the help. I can't wait to have things all printed out, based, and ready to play!

I just wanted to pop on quick this morning and let you guys know about the awesome service from Tom Anders at Impact Miniatures. I sent him an email letting him know I was from Heroscapers.com and you guys had recommended his product. This was yesterday(a Sunday), and he generated the shipping slip/tracking # last night around 11pm. That is some great service!

I wouldn't blame the guy if there were no rulebooks present ... the hard part is when the rule is read and denial/frustration/anger/competitiveness/etc. kicks in. But it happens and usually they settle back in and end up having a lot of fun, especially when the rule ends up helping them later on.

I not sure I can even count how many times I've said this. But somehow this philosophy is always challenged at one point or another. Jokingly, one time this philosophy was especially challenged as one of Mathguy's rectangular Sabretooth cards had Wolverine written in the Healing Factor X power ...
