    But seriously, this game was my introduction to tabletop back in the day and I loved it with all my heart. (And wallet. 😂) I'm so glad its making a comeback. Thanks for the video!

    I didn't watch much of Critical Role but I remember years ago for a fight in the plane of fire Matt set down the ruin wall pieces from the first Heroscape set. Back then HS was almost a dead game so I was happily surprised to see Matt had them, and now watching him play and talk about it my suspicions are confirmed!
    Also, I agree with using the terrain for other games. I was 13 when I started playing D&D (4e) and I set up combat scenarios using the terrain from my Hersocape set. Had the drow and dragon from the D&D crossover master set, my Roman legionaries stood as kobolds, and the players used whoever they wanted as their characters. Definitely among my favorite memories of playing D&D.
    I'm 27 now and live in a different state, but when I visit my family I'll stay for a week and we'll play Hersocape each evening we're able too. It's just too much fun. I'm glad that years ago I was able to get a hold of the first master set and waves 1 and 2 (with two copies of each squad) plus a few other expansion packs so we have a sizeable collection to draft our armies from. The next time we get together, we'll kick it off with a battle only using the new set!
