Heroscape

This page is needs images. Help plz.

Heroscape is a tabletop skirmish game. Due to its low price, low complexity and pre-made models, it is considered superior to most table top war games which are often too cheap to even paint their figures. The game's terrain is made out of hexagons that interlock, which can be built together to make really awesome things. The figure models are from all manner of different themes and include Vikings, Knights, Dragons, Robots, Werewolves, Highlanders, Monks, Secret Agents, Samurai, Giant Spiders, Orcs and Elves.

Other

It is important to note that there are two sub-games for Heroscape. Marvel and Dungeons and Dragons. Marvel units do not follow any of the Generals while D&D units do, although they also include a new General, Valkrill (a weaker knockoff of Utgar), however he is not considered part of the regular Heroscape game.
