This might be a dumb question, but how does Finn's attack aura affect these guys?

So I've been rebuilding my collection over the last six years after a fire. Had to pay a premium to get this unit back into my collection. The people I play with and I regularly play slightly larger battles, think 4 players, 600 points a piece, on a map that uses at least two master sets and a...

So, long story short, I'm currently in the process of cobbling together a Heroscape collection after losing most of my once immaculate collection in a housefire a few years ago. At this point, I've essentially got everything I set out to get, but some of my Ashigaru Yari and Templar Cavalry...

So a few weeks ago I lost almost all of my heroscape in a fire. It REALLY sucked. For insurance purposes, I need to come up with a detailed description of the collection in order to appraise it's value. A few random figures and tiles survived, but it's already been declared "destroyed beyond...

So I hesitated to even post this, but I think just letting it out might help me cope a bit. I'm warning you, this is kind of a depressing tale. But one I feel like I need to let out, because few can completely understand. It's unreal how ironic life can be sometimes. So my home caught on...

Being a Star Wars fan since I was consciously aware of its existence, I remember being absolutely floored when news broke that a new Star Wars film was in the works. Being five years old at the time, I was right at the age where I could start to appreciate just how cool Star Wars was, and the...

Ok, this is the official 2013 Heroscapers Fantasy Football thread. Due to the varied opinions as how to run the league in both the old thread and my inbox, I am looking for specific things in this thread. First, your preference as to live draft or autopick and if you are Flexible on the issue...

I don't consider myself a hard-core video gamer, nor a technological expert, but I've been closely following the news releases regarding the upcoming PS4 and Xbox One game systems. I don't plan on purchasing either of these systems at launch, or shortly thereafter, but I imagine that I'll buy...

As a movie fan, I constantly find myself thinking about my all time favorite films. It's a tough task to rank your top ten, but I'm curious as to what other Heroscapers would list as their favorite movies. These are not necessarily the films you think are the best, but rather the films you enjoy...

Imagine Hasbro, (or WotC), decides to give Heroscape another shot. To test the market, they plan to release one master set, around the size of the Rise of the Valkyrie set. Hasbro doesn't want to create new units or terrain for this master set, but they do not want to simply re-release an...

I recently converted part of our basement into a game room of sorts. I now have a lot more room for 'Scaping, but I don't really have a decent table to play on. In the past, I have been using a couple of 3' by 3' card tables, but since one is 2 inches higher than the other, it makes large maps...

In my Government class, we are currently working on a project about polling, and more specifically, the effect of the wording of a poll question on the poll results. We need to poll as many people as possible on a particular topic. My group's given topic discusses the drinking age regulations...

I've been 'Scaping for quite a while now, and although the game hasn't and probably won't get old anytime soon, I have noticed that my ability to "creatively" create armies has kind of diminished over the years. Whenever my group decides to do straight drafts, I always end up drafting the same...

The idea with this thread is pretty simple: to provide a place to discuss anything Heroscape related you notice after you play a game. Maybe you noticed that two units compliment each other very well but don't have any synergies, or a given unit does particularly good or bad on a given map. If...

For a while now, I have been somewhat interested in role playing games like D&D. I have been surfing the web lately trying to find some answers to my questions about the topic, but I haven't found what I am looking for yet. So if any D&D playing scapers out there want to help me out a little...

I have been playing a lot of massive 'Scape lately. I love big maps, and I love huge armies. One of the biggest problems with massive 'Scape games is that they take quite a while to play. A lot of times, one or two units are out in the battle, while the other 1300 or so points worth of your army...

Due to the recent news (couldn't have been timed better by the way :roll:), I have hit a dilemma. I took the announcement pretty hard yesterday, and I couldn't think straight for the rest of the day. I was very upset with the decision, and I was thinking about some ways to get back at Wizards. I...

Pawn Stars is probably my favorite show on cable right now. It profiles a family run pawn shop in Las Vegas Nevada. A pawn shop, for those of you who don't know, is a business where people buy and sell goods. Pawn shops also provide a service called, "pawning". If a person wishes to pawn an...

Heroscape's brilliant design allow for a lot of variations in gameplay, and the game can easily be adapted by house rules. There is a lot of discussion about house rules, and different objectives in games other than complete annihilation of your opponent. One day, myself, DavKop50, Archano...

With this article, I wanted to take the in game height of Heroscape units, and convert this to real life height. The idea is to get a better understanding of just how big some of the units in Heroscape really would be. I got the idea because I like to imagine that I am a unit in Heroscape, and I...
