New Map Tile System
Hi all. Long time.
Not technically official Heroscape news but still of interest. This keeps popping up in my Facebook and I know nothing more than what’s posted at Kickstarter, but considering the fact that the plastic from the map tiles has a limited life span I thought thus might interest some. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...9ZZzKTtVybMc9s Best, Aeston 6 RoTV, 3 SotM, 3 RttFF, 3 FotA, 3 VW, 3 TT, 3 TJ. At least 3 of every common, 1 of every unique. Aeston's Maps Before Heroscape: The History that Lead to our Game |

Re: New Map Tile System
Do we know how big those tiles are? I'd like to know if they compare to Scape tiles.

Re: New Map Tile System
They are 1-1/2" from flat to flat and 1/4" thick according to the creator’s comments on Facebook. They were designed with Heroscape in mind.

Re: New Map Tile System
Here's a pic of the final textured production-quality tiles, from November. Terragon is still awaiting completion & delivery of their injection mold to begin production, which should be early next year. 1.5" edge-to-edge, 1/4" thick.
Top row: Magma, Obsidian (HS Shadow), Snow Center: Sand, Earth (HS Stone), Ice--transparent Bottom: Stone (HS Dungeon), Grass, Water--transparent 1" stickers would be needed for "Swamp water" and Lava field, and road could be any unused color not represented in your base map, whether sand/earth/stone/magma... --tiles could be flipped upside-down to hide stickers as necessary. There are various sized terrain bundles in five "themes" (Page 2) --but the breakdowns don't conform to any Heroscape set. 25-tile pack is $25. Hoard -- 1000 for $550 Trove -- 500 for $300 Starter pack -- 250 for $160 There's also scatter terrain (trees, rocks, pillars) and stackable walls in various lengths. Edit: From the KS Update #20, looks like each wall segment is edge-to-edge, so the longest one is three hexes wide...and the wall system will be expanded after KS fulfillment.

Re: New Map Tile System
Terragon update.
Finalized tiles from the re-calibrated mold were achieved in June, backer order production has commenced. A single Terragon tile will fit exactly in a HeroScape hex hole. Preorders opened August 24., "We expect pre-orders to begin shipping in March 2023." 250, 500, 1000 tile sets in the five "themes" described below, or 25-tile individual packs. Pre-order production will wait until all Kickstarter orders are completed. Civilizations is mainly light grey stone, Frontiers grass, Desolate Wastes earth (also has lava/obsidian), Coasts sand and water, Frozen Tundra for snow/ice. Here's Rybonator's short video from today of actual production tiles in action. He has a discount included in the video. Last edited by UtahScott; September 5th, 2022 at 01:38 PM. |

Re: New Map Tile System
Do you have any pics you can share of these tiles working with Scape tiles?

Re: New Map Tile System
I have added the photos ( I think?) For you to look at.
The picture shows a 24 set next to a set of 24 tiles. The same on top of one another. Showing how they would mesh together. And show how they fail to sit inside each set. I also shared a picture of a miniature on the Terragon tiles. |
