On Ebay: Hmmm... looks like Reaper's Oliphaunt
Was doing my occasional random Heroscape browse of Ebay and found a decent looking War Elephant figure. The abilities however look like they may have been ripped from the Oliphaunt Reaper made. About six of them are the same as the ones Reaper gave his Oliphaunt...

In other news it looks like fellow Heroscaper Leif Kicker has got some new custom Heroscape terrain props up for auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/Custom-expansion...QQcmdZViewItem “Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.

There are 4 "Ruined Cathedral" walls from 40k or Gamesworkshop. You can find them here http://store.us.games-workshop.com/s...y=ruin&System= So your speculations where right on. |

Thanks for the heads-up, Ryhdd...
I'm OK with this fairly obvious rip-off, simply because it means more people can see what it's like playing with a unit as cool as a War Elephant. While this could be considered "stealing", or lifting ideas from me and selling them for personal profit, I really don;t mind, since a) imitation IS a form of flattery. and b) it shows interest in a Mountable Oliphaunt-type figure used for large battles, which is something I wish the official designers would think about expanding HS with. Bigger ideas = interesting HS gameplay. and as another interesting tidbit, leifkicker has a nice looking ghost custom for sale there. Notice it's a Neutral Unit, that is used to guard a specific hex type/area? |

By the way I think the elephant itself is one of the cheap plastic elephants you can get at Wal-Mart for like a buck. So if you can find a decent "box" to stick on its back you might be able to play with your own Oliphaunt for once, albeit a much smaller version. Just check in the novelty toy section of Wal-Mart where you can find the green army men and spongebob's. Quote:

Dangit Reaper, I was getting all excited about seeing some guy getting pounded for stealing your intellectual property. Way to go taking the high road.
Wait for it... Follow the adventures of Agent Minivann

I dont like posting anything i plan to sell over here for a number of reasons.
If i post what im working on and somone tosses out a really good idea and i use it then i kinda owe them or something. Admins have stated in the past that they dont like people posting there Ebay auctions here as this is a place to discuss all things scapie and not a place for the most part to try to boost there sells. And if you combine the first two together by using someone elses thoughts and heroscapers forums to boost sales. and Hasbro decides that something done has crossed the line then i might have gotten someone else or the site in hot water. This way im the only one held accountable. With all that said I have about 30 cards worked up that i had sold in an Ebay store in the past, some day i hope to put them up here. Ive tried to in the past but they are to big of files and i just havent figured out how to reducing the file size to put in a gallery. If all works out well i want it so people can copy paste and print, or download somehow and print them off for there use. Keep your eyes open lots more stuff in the works. |

I'd love to see more of your terrain! Using WH 40K ruins with HS is a great idea. So now I really WILL have to go dig them up! I also have a bunch of custom terrain I made for Mordheim (ruined houses and such) but I am not sure how to make them work with the hex-based HS system (all my houses are decidedly not hex-shaped!).
