Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
Sir Heroscape was just looking at the Compendium (https://www.heroscapers.com/community/downloads.php?do=file&id=201). And I would recommend rereading Thormun's Journals as well, Shiori and Q10 are shown pretty well in them.

The game rules only prevent it if they have the same name, which is what Blue Trails seems to be positing (and I agree). If this was Major Q11, the rules as is wouldn't prevent you from fielding both.

I believe they're a combination of info from the bios and the journals.

When/where did that happen? I've seen nothing of the sort in the news thread or on Discord.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
I was wondering that too, because I remember something saying a jpeg link being labeled "this is not Shiori". But maybe she'll be revealed next Friday if they keep the SOTM pattern up. I'd personally rather see a second version of Tor-Kul-Na over a third Raelin and Drake, but at this point the more the merrier.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
Here is a probably ridiculous idea based on the idea that all of the SotM heroes seem to be getting a new version. What if there isn't a Drake and Raelin 3.0, and instead it is their lovechild?

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
So I know that the image link is not actually the link for the ninja, but this seems to suggest that the figure isn't Shiori.
Discuss!

The name of this image is "NoThisIsNotShiori"Encarmine said:DESIGNER'S NOTES - DAY 015 - "THAT SOUND OF FOOTFALLS IN THE DISTANCE IS HEADING RIGHT FOR US!!!" The Scion of the Wild bows not before the belligerent city dwellers, instead lashing out with the primal anger of the many snarling beasts that fight beside him in combat. He has become one with the pack, understanding the instincts of nature’s raw power better than any of other Dryan magi in the Order. With a powerful magical staff forged by the mighty Volarak of Haukeland, the Scion of the Wild bends the beasts of Arboreas to his will, and drives forth a raging stampede of claws, horns and fangs to battle against his adversaries.
EDIT: @Anitar suggested that I clarify that

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
Oh I see. This is a reference to a running joke in the discord that any given sketch may be Shiori (as long as the one that is implied to be Shiori is not outright stated to be her)

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
Yeah, SkyWhale's right. For this reason, I'm leaning towards the unit being Major Q10 in name and in spirit, even if not in personality or consciousness in the lore.

And it could help explain a transition to a new general?

He's "wearing" a Vydar insignia, so somehow I doubt that.
Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
It has been brought up to Avalon Hill numerous times with no official statement. So atleast they know we want it.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
Samuel Brown was officially released. We have his official card and we have his official mini. Paint yours if you want.
Edit: "We" don't "want it." Some of us ask about it, and some of us seem to think that it would be a thing that doesn't already exist, but I do not agree that a broad "we" want it. What would it look like? Different mini? Because that's a rerelease, like SotM Drake or something. It would call for a different power set.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
Here is the quote from Truth's blog, on the front page:
That says two things to me. First of all, "permission to release the card" came from Hasbro. "Release." The card has therefore been released, with Hasbro's express blessing.
Second, this release is something that Truth and others fought for, when Heroscape was discontinued. And they won, when Hasbro gave permission for this release, including card and mini.
So we have a "release," with card and mini. To say that it is not "official" is both inaccurate and, to my mind, truly unkind to our friends who fought for that final inch, after 'Scape was discontinued.

Well said. Plus, for what it's worth, if Samuel Brown wasn't official, he wouldn't be listed in the BOOKS with all of the other official units.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
I must agree with Anitar, here. Unless the SotM Heroes receive their own faction that supersedes their respective generals, new Q10 will most likely be a Vydar unit.
