Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
![]() We are open for business! ![]() Just as a reminder, these are the general features that we will be judging on, so keep them in mind for your nominations:
We rely on community involvement in nominating units which will then be playtested by a panel of judges. Judges are permanently appointed, and serve until they choose to step down. The current Judges are:Soldiers of Valhalla display thread (inducted units) SoV & C3V Books of Index Week at HSers SoV Interview Part I Week at HSers SoV Interview Part II units pending acceptance for review <none> . units under Unified Fanscape review Annuhunhounds by Blue Trails units currently being reviewed Masha Shingai by Astroking112 Yes - 3 (Scytale, superfrog, and wriggz)Rujin by Sir Heroscape Yes - 3 (Scytale, Vydar_XLIII, and superfrog)Shadow Wraith by Sir Heroscape Yes - 2 (Scytale and BiggaBullfrog)Lee Jun by Leaf_It Yes - 3 (BiggaBullfrog, Scytale, and Vydar_XLIII)Agrith-Naar by Sir Heroscape Yes - 1 (Scytale)Drow Assassin by Leaf It Yes - 1 (Scytale)Wulfing Hunters by Shiftrex Yes - 0High Dune Scorpions by Sir Heroscape and Leaf It Yes - 1 (Scytale)Jim Whitecloud by Leaf It Yes - 0Master Aldorn (primary) by Leaf_It Yes - 0Visages of Aldorn (secondary) by Leaf_It Yes - 0Lady Aldorn by Leaf_It Yes - 0Necro-Mage Elba by NecroBlade Yes - 0. units under final United Fanscape review <none> Last edited by Scytale; September 18th, 2023 at 07:10 PM. |

SECTION 1: Submission guidelines and tips
1. Any number of units may be nominated in a single post, including "synergistic" units that function best as a group. When nominating multiple units, you may choose one of four options for your submission: a) Choose a unit to be the "primary" unit of the submission, and the rest to be "secondary" units. The "primary" unit may pass by itself without the "secondary" units passing, but if the "primary" unit fails, all "secondary" units will be withdrawn. "Secondary" units will be judged based on the "primary" unit.2. Nominated units require a card formatted in a manner that is easy to read. 3. Miniatures must be listed in the submission, readily available, and appropriately scaled, with consideration taken for cost and for labor, such as paint, required to obtain the sculpt. In all but some special cases the miniatures must be pre-painted. 4. All units suggested should fit thematically within the Heroscape universe. Units should follow a Heroscape general and should include an origin world that is part of the Heroscape canon in almost all cases. 5. Anyone can nominate a unit for consideration. Nominated units require a majority vote (50%+1) of the Council before they will be considered for review. 6. Do NOT slap a unit together and nominate it for consideration. Game play experience and observations are encouraged. The SoV is a tool for ensuring excellence, not for helping refine a rough draft. (The Pre-SoV Workshop is a great place to look for help refining a unit before submitting it here.) SECTION 2: How units are judged Units nominated for consideration will go through the following process after a majority of acceptance votes by the judges: 1. Units accepted for review will be playtested competitively at least once by five judges. 2. Consideration for approved units will be given, generally, based on the following criteria and in this order: balance, playability, creativity, and theme. 3. Time for consideration is: as long as it takes for the judges to make an informed decision. 4. Great units will be approved, not good ones. Don't let this discourage you. 5. Judge discussions will occur in public and private forums on the non-official Heroscape web site: Currently www.heroscapers.com 6. Reviews on units will be public with status and results presented. 7. Units must receive 4 reviews supporting induction and no more than 1 review against induction in order to be considered for acceptance into the Soldiers of Valhalla, after which they will be reviewed by the C3V and if approved there will be re-formatted and given the Soldiers of Valhalla Seal of Approval and admitted into the C3V as well. SECTION 3: Self-governance 1. The Council will contain a number of judges that the sitting judges find appropriate, but never less than 5. 2. Judges will maintain their position unless: a) They are not heard from by fellow judges on the official non-official Heroscape web site for a period of 31 days, or b) They abstain for a total of three months or for three consecutive units under review, whichever comes later. 3. If a vacancy on the council occurs, judges will be replaced by those who: a) show interest in serving, and b) after consideration of the sitting judges receive 75 % vote of approval. Voting and discussion of a replacement judge may occur in private. 4. Judges will not be allowed to vote on their own units. During the judging of their own units their vote will be considered an abstention for the percentages needed to both playtest and approve the unit. Their vote will NOT be counted as an abstention for purposes of the "three consecutive units" portion of Section 3-2-b. 5. These by-laws may be changed and amended at any time by a 75% vote of sitting judges.

Re: SoV
Does that mean I could create my own card layout if I wanted to?

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla nominations and discussion
It does mean that, though in the end I believe that we are looking for cards to fit fully within the Heroscape world (note #3 above). So, it's likely that we'd end up doing a revision of the card to match other Heroscape cards.
This is still a point of some discussion among the judges, but in my mind #3 implies a standard Heroscape card at some point. New? Read this. | The INDEX 2.0 | Mmirg's Maps Magnify Your Scape: BoV | SoV | C3V (Playtest!) | C3G The Dice Tower Con w/ Scape! |

Re: SoV
Yes, any well organized card is allowable for review, but accepted units will be reformatted to a traditional HS-style card.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla nominations and discussion
Do you have an art guy for this project? I would be totally willing to lead on that front. I just do not have the time to playtest that would be needed to judge.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla nominations and discussion
Thanks for the offer. We'll talk about it and let you know. Of course, first a card has to actually make it past our grueling review--might be months, even years...

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla nominations and discussion
Since any nominated card must have an available miniature to go with it you can check the availability of your miniature using the links below to various online miniatures games stores.
Site Sponsors: Auggie's Cool Stuff, Inc. Miniature Market Troll and Toad Wargamer's Headquarters (House Mouse Games is a Site Sponsor as well. The above list represents the Site Sponsors who carry other games in addition to Heroscape) Other Stores: Fantization (one of my favorites) Games Empire FRP Games (another really good one) RPG Shop This one seems to have disappeared Noble Knight Games Paizo The Warstore Reaper Mini Crocodile Games Privateer Press (Hordes, Warmachine, Monsterpocalypse, Voltron [if only Voltron was the right scale]) Role 4 Initiative (D&D) Wyrd Miniatures (Malifaux) Games Workshop (I know, I know, but some people do use their sculpts) Icon USA Team Covenant (they specialize in Monster Apocalypse) There are others but if a miniature used for a custom can't be found on any of these sites, chances are it is no longer available. Also, sites like Cool Mini or Not probably wouldn't be acceptable as a source for availability. It has a gallery of some incredible paint jobs (visit it if you've never been there) but it isn't a good source to purchase from. If you know of other stores that offer something in miniatures that you don't think any of the above offer feel free to let us know through PM and it can be added to this post.

I'm not allowed not to nominate yet but I'm thinking about nominating Deathwalker 10000 by krysto2002.
