UNCOMMON SQUADS
Q: How the do “Uncommon Squads” work? Is there a limit on how many I may draft into my army? Do I need a card for each one in my army? How do I tell each Feral Troll apart from the others?

A: Each Army may have any number of an Uncommon Army Card with the same name. If your army has two or more of the same Uncommon Army Card, you must keep those figures separate (that is, keep track of which figure belongs to which card). For example, if you are using two Squads of Rhox Veterans, you must clearly mark each Rhox Veteran figure and a matching Rhox Veterans Army Card so you can tell which Rhox Veteran is being activated by which Order Markers. Uncommon figures are considered to be Unique figures in every other way. See also: Army Card, Unique Figures, and Common Figures rules in the official Heroscape Master Set Rule Books.

The figure used for this unit are painted Kor Hookmasters from Magic the Gathering: Arena of the Planeswalkers.

DRAGON LOYALTY

There can be only one Dragon for all the Icarian Hookmasters you control. Icarian Hookmasters cannot attack their chosen Dragon.

DRAGON LOYALTY
Q: If my chosen Dragon Hero is destroyed, may the Icarian Hookmasters choose another unique Dragon hero with which to synergize?
A: Nice try. The wording on the card is "At the start of the game, choose a..." Once the chosen hero is destroyed, the Icarian Hookmasters are left without a Dragon Hero.

DRAGON LOYALTY vs. MINDSHACKLE, SOUL-DEVOUR

Q: If my chosen Dragon Hero has his mind shackled or his soul devoured, do the Icarian Hookmasters still receive their Attack bonus?
A: Yes. Similar questions have come up in the past, centered on the Macdirk Warriors. The adapted ruling from their book is "The Mindshackled hero is still the Dragon Hero for the Icarian Hookmasters." The Icarian Hookmaster may, therefore, still receive their Attack bonus from a Mindshackled/Soul-Devoured Dragon Hero.

LOYALTY TO THE Hybrid KING?
Q: If my chosen Dragon Hero has its left-box information altered by the Werewolf Lord's LYCANTHROPY, is he still the Dragon Hero?
A: Yes. The Dragon Hero is chosen at the start of the game, and remains the Dragon Hero, even if his information is altered.

DETAIN
Q: If I damage 2 different figures using Detain can I remove a OM from both cards?
A: No, you can not. You can only apply Detain to one of the damaged figures cards, as you can only remove one OM per turn with Detain.
Q: If I destroy a figure in a common squad can I still use Detain to remove a OM from its card?
A: Yes, even if the figure is destroyed you can remove a OM. This is helpful against all squad figures (common, uncommon, unique) and against figures with the Rejected By Death special power too.

Upcoming Wave 6 and Neutral Figure Rules

Most of the this is long over due and I simply have not made time to really work on Heroscape stuff for a while, but the COVID-19 Pandemic has given me a little more time to do so and I figured those that are sheltering at home for the rest of this month like my family could use some new figures to try out during this time.

So Wave 6 is here with a new set of Rules to go along with it. It introduces Neutral Figures: figures/units that do not belong to a Valkyrie General/faction such as Elementals, Constructs, or factions native to Valhalla that are enemies to the Kyrie such as the Durgeth. It also introduces Uncommon Squads, which behave just like Unique Squads but you can draft multiple copies. These rules will be important for the Master Set that I have been working on for a number of years now. 

Here is the rule book for Neutral Figures and for Uncommon Squads.

Below is a picture previewing the units that will be included in this wave. 

Look for a new figure each week day starting on the 13th through the rest of the month and stay safe. And for you Disney lovers I hope you enjoy Gaston from yesterday.

The Book of Gaston

The Book of Gaston
Bangerang Disney Custom

The figure used for this unit is Gaston from Disney Parks Collector Packs Series 13.

BEAST HUNTER
At the start of the game, you may choose one opponent’s Unique Beast or Prince Hero as Gaston’s Prey. When a numbered Order Marker is revealed on the Prey’s card, you may immediately move Gaston up to 3 spaces. When moving with Beast Hunter, Gaston is never attacked when leaving engagements. If Gaston attacks his Prey, he may attack his Prey one additional time.

2020 First Update

Well it has been a busy new year so far. I got a 3D printer (ender 3) for Christmas which has been a ton of fun! Unfortunately it is just creating more and more things to paint and add to the back log of projects I have.

Now having the ability to 3D print I have been printing the Hyground Tiles Tree Fort! I have been wanting this since Hyground first showed the idea back in 2014...I can't believe it has been 6 years. I can't wait to finish it and build a huge forest map to play on. Here is what I have printed so far:

So the large trees in the back are the Hyground Tree Fort Set. Pictured with them are to Hedrons that I printed and painted, the one to the left I have added some vines made from green stuff and plants that match the Ticalla Jungle set. Also is a fire pit printed and painted made to fit around a tea light. Next row pictures more printed trees that I scaled to fit Heroscape: Deciduous and Pine. Finally I printed the tops of the Ticalla Jungle Trees! I have the bases and trunks already made back from 2014 or 2015...can't quite remember. 

Also I just got the IDW TMNT Adventure System game! This is the 2.0 version (I also have the original) and the scale issues have been resolved, mostly, and there are a ton of great minis that I will be able to utilize for both that game and for my TMNT Heroscape customs. I didn't take any pictures of it though as it is already packed away as we prepare for a move in the coming months. I did however mix my own first 3D model using Meshmixer to create the Mutant Drill Module!

Pictured with the custom made Bebop and Rocksteady for scale. This is something that I have been really wanting for quite sometime and now it is complete. Credit to the creators of the various files I use to make it are as follows: Termite Assault Drill,  Big Daddy Drill, Crater, 7-hex tile.

Here's to hoping that the busy start leads to a busy year of completing a lot of projects...but it did take me 4 months to get this posted so we will see how it goes.
