    Heroquest is one of those rare boardgames that has longevity due to all the new products and expansions that come out for it time and time again. These cards definitely give it a new way to play. The downside is that the dungeon board gets repetitive and the beastiary needs alot more variety. My remedy to this is that I use loke battle maps to change the scenery and use miniatures from pathfinder and dnd

    As i understand when i read the infinite dungeon rules, it writes "When playing without a Zorgan player, if there are no monsters on the board, instead of rolling your movement dice, simply assume each die has rolled a 4" i read that as you roll 2 4's meaning an MA at 8 not 4.

    It’s tempting but with postage to the UK the full bundle with discount is £90. That’s before any import fees and obviously will be even more expensive after 30th October. I remember the days when the USD to GBP exchange rate meant you could pretty much half the USD price to get the GBP price. I don’t think I can justify £90+ for this, as cool as it looks.

    I like how fast things move. I wonder if this could be used with another game. I don’t think it would take too much changing of anything to use Descent 2nd edition with this system. You definitely would get more enemy variety as well. I’m thinking if I get this and combine descent 2nd rules, characters, enemies with the HQ board and this card system. Also I think this all would combine really well with the HeroQuest Roleplay book. Truly would be a Warhammer quest lite.

Not as heavy as those games can be (though I've found my own solution for that when I just want to play for a little bit) but it's still got a good amount of crunch to it.

  • @WhiteRhinoPSO
    @WhiteRhinoPSO 2 месяца назад +1

    I recently heard that one of the official expansions had something they called "unthreatened movement." Essentially, if there were no monsters on the board, a hero is allowed to move 4 squares per movement die they would normally have. So in regular play, assuming nobody has been penalized to move less than their standard movement, then this system would give a hero 8 squares of movement. Once monsters start showing up on the board, then it's back to rolling the movement dice.
    Also, today I learned that "famelic" means hungry.

    I ordered this a couple of days ago. Even with the big Halloween catch up discount, shipping from 🇺🇸 to 🇬🇧 means it is almost as expensive as backing league of dungeoneers.
    So obviously I went for these cards instead.
    I hope I have made the right choice.

    Bit off topic but I've been enjoying your solo RPG videos and was wondering if there's a good tool or system to support solo Gamma World (3e) or MCC play? Most of the sandbox and table books seem to be fantasy-themed?

    • @TheDungeonDive
      @TheDungeonDive 8 месяцев назад +1

      Fantasy seems to enjoy the lion's share of supplements, but I think a general oracle could work for GW and MCC. As far as tools like random charts to supplement play, I'm not sure. I think GW and MCC are weird enough that with a little imagination you could make fantasy tools work. Just say skeletons are skeletal mutants, or change swords to VibraSwords or stuff like that.

      @TheDungeonDive thanks for the reply! The idea with modified tables is a good one. I did actually find something this morning, the "Solo Game Masters Guide" that calls out Mutant Crawl Classics specifically by "Modiphius Entertainment". I'll give that a try but from the reviews sounds like I still may need some supplemental tables - maybe I can just cook some alternate tables up myself in advance of play with some inspiration from the ones you shared in your videos.

    @thedungeondive Could this work well using modular board tiles?

    • @TheDungeonDive
      @TheDungeonDive 8 месяцев назад +1

      No. It's specifically made for a pre-made map, and works great. So even if you had modular tiles, you'd still need to build the map before hand to populate the rooms. It's designed to work specifically with the HeroQuest board and I guess other pre-made maps. You could use it with some Loke Battlemat books for instance. I'm sure someone will come up with something, but for me that would kind of defeat the point.

      @n4tune8 Месяц назад

      I use the same AI as in Gloomhaven, using Movement as Initiative. So monsters with highest Movement act first, and they attack the closest hero. If two heroes are at the same distance, they attack the one with the highest Movement. One rule I changed is that there is no Zargon turn, heroes and monsters act in order of Movement and all heroes roll Movement at the beginning of the round.

The AQ decks were designed to be compatible with the current edition, so if you own the original North America game, you're good. The only bit that I can warn you about is that the cards of the original game had their own format, so the AQ cards will immediately look different. But then again, you are never required to mix or shuffle them together, so it's just an esthetic issue.
      On the other hand, if you own the original EU version (where all monsters have 1 BP), things might get a bit wonky here and there. Probably not much, but still....

    • @TheDungeonDive
      @TheDungeonDive 7 месяцев назад +2

      Not really, because you never know what's on the cards, so the exploration is still totally intact. The dungeon layout in these games doesn't create the sense of exploration, what you find in the dungeon does.

    • @user-pw2wq2rf4p
      @user-pw2wq2rf4p 7 месяцев назад

      Hello there, Giuseppe/Axian here. By putting the cards on the board, you know which rooms have something in them, but you still don't know how they are connected, because you place doors while playing. In my experience (and playtest), even when playing alone, I'm always surprised of how the final dungeon turned out because of how I placed the doors while playing. In multiplayer gmless games, the effect is even stronger because it's the player who opens a door that has to place the next door.
      The design of the deck and its rules were based on the assumption that exploration becomes more meaningful when you actually possess *some* information about what's ahead, so as to (at least some times) take informed decisions about where to go next. With zero information, opening the door to the left or to the right is a meaningless choice.
      This is also the reason why the Clue cards allow you to reveal one or two cards from unexplored rooms.

I don't really care about "sticking to the rules" in these kinds of games, so I'm constantly messing with things. If you're looking for strict rules and balance, and things that cover all the bases, they may not work for you.

  • @jamesarnoldi2269

    I'm not a fan of one vs many but Heroquest, to me, isn't one vs many game. It's a GMed mode where the Zargon player isn't against the other players, trying to defeat them, but moderating a fun dungeon crawler. The GM mode is my absolutely favorite way to dungeon crawl but very few DCers play that way.
    As a co-op mode though, this does seem pretty good and I do prefer co-op to one vs many games like Descent.
