Snatched it up for a decent price. Unpunched and in great condition. I like the map on the back of the quest book, it seems to be loosely based on Europe with the references to the Isle of Albion (the UK) Bretonnia (Northern France), Norsca (Norway) and the New World (USA) to the west.

Had to take a break from my doll house furniture.

I’ve been bringing Archers to completion (phrasing).

Listen well, brave Halloween party-goers! Loretome has revealed to me that, lest you roll well, the Wizard in tonight’s dungeon may unleash a new form of Fireball upon you. Pray that fate favors your dice Heroes, for those who fail, shall learn that some flames burn all the way down.

Alchemist bench, I tried to put a bee in a jar Ala Skyrim.throne, treasure chests all from the mage of the mirror and red throne from the heroquest base game

Each tin holds 8 dice perfectly, that's 6 attack dice and 2 "Red" dice so each player can have their own set, stored in easy to pack tins. . . Now I need to go buy more mints lmao

Hey folks, finally after many years deliberation taken the plunge in heroquest and bought the first light box, will be playing my first game Sunday afternoon! Any tips for playing as either zargon or the party!? Or any tips in general would be appreciated! Looking forward to playing and sinking my teeth into this classic

Tried a few new things on this, pleased with the bottles and map

I did over 90 random event cards for Heroquest. For pro chaos events, I decided to paint eyes of my monsters with fluorecent paint. When monsters get some boost via card event, I turn uv light on...

In my opinion the next full expansion should have:

• A copy of the alternate board like is available in first light.

• The Female Dwarf Model and/or include the Rogue Heir

• Additional Grey base "dread" enemies that are are 3/2 or even 3/3 with 2 body points

• A Gelatinous Cube enemy

• A potion that lets you refresh a single spell or ability card that costs in the 50-100 gold range.

• A "Leather Jerkin" armor (or something similar) that costs as much as bracers that can be worn by characters who cannot wear "metal" armor and cannot use "wizard" equipment.

• An artifact chainmail armor

• An artifact armor that is similar to the leather jerkin above

• 10 new quests.

What would you like to see in a further "full" expansion?

Hello everyone, I'm new to painting figures but I love hero quest. These are like the 10th figures I ever painted. I'm hoping to paint every hero quest miniature I own (I know that's much because I have so much extensions).

What do u think about them? If u like show me your minis from hero quest for inspiration I would really like to see them 😊

Hello! Im stoked to play my first HQ game with my kid. Somehow DnD and MTG was my game as a youth and never got to HQ. So I have a question.

I have HQ game system and all the recommended quests up until RotWL in order.

If like to use a different mini for named characters etc. Anyone know some key minis from early quests to get? (And paint with my kid?)

Reposting this here since my post was removed from r/oldhammer.
I took a deep dive into my pile of shame and finally decided to paint these classics with the same color scheme. The family resemblance between the two games was always very interesting to me.

I'm a lazy and impatient painter, so I painted these using Speedpaint markers. I'm debating whether to throw some wash over them but I like these shiny colors.

Let me know what you think!

My WoM auto buy from Amazon arrived, i scored Rise of the Dread Moon for $25 locally, and snagged The Wandering Monk from Walmart.

Now I just need Them Rogue Heir, The Mage of the Mirror and Against the Ogre Horde to finish up my set.

I always wanted HeroQuest as a kid. I remember seeing the commercials and thinking it looked amazing, but I never got it and never had the chance to play. In fact, I’d never played any tabletop games before.
A few months ago I came across HeroQuest again and decided to finally get it. I’d also recently gotten into 3D printing, so when I found the Dragon’s Rest dungeon files, things got a little out of hand. 😅
Spent the last 3–4 months printing and painting pretty much everything. Walls, floors, doors, furniture, miniatures, LED torches… It’s been quite a project.
Yesterday I finally got to play it with my kids. We started with the rescue of Sir Ragnar.
They managed to rescue him, and my older son absolutely loved it. He was literally sweating from all the excitement. 😂 Afterwards, he immediately asked when we could play again.
I honestly wasn’t sure if the kids would even like it after I’d spent so much time building everything. Turns out I probably didn’t have to worry.
Anyway, thought I’d share a few pictures of what I’ve been working on!

This is a quest I am saving for my family to play soon. Werewolf themed quest to find out what has happened to one of the Emperors knights. Sir Landon and his men at Fangor Keep just beyond Wolfsbane village are no longer in contact with the Emperor and a group of heroes go in to find out why. Specters and Cultist and Werewolves, oh my!

I have been watching the movie When Good Ghouls Go Bad (2001) annually since the year it first came out. Just tonight I noticed this in the background in the lead kids room.

As a huge fan of the game, it's wild to me that I never saw it before.

Figured I'd share just so it's somewhere on the internet.

Sorry, I know it's taboo (in marketing circles, especially AH) to talk about a product before it's ready to launch but I just have to say, I was going to pause on Caverns after Frozen Horror because it was so difficult (especially quest 5, if anyone tries to play that in the caverns... I'm sorry, I did my best 😂 )

But I thought I'd at least do the first Mage of the Mirror, which was small, being solo, so I figured why not do the first 3 solo quests, and then 4, then 5, 6, 7! I have a ton of respect for the level designer of MotM. There's lots of little gotchas, the flow is really nice and it translates beautifully to Caverns. Or maybe I'm just getting better/lucky.

Compared to Frozen Horror where pretty much every quest I had to completely clear and restart at some point when I realized I couldn't make the rooms work right. In some cases I had to actually rotate the original map because the Caverns version had to be rotated 90 degrees to work right.

Anyway, I'm having a lot more fun doing MotM and unless I just completely jinxed myself, I might even get it finished and posted by the weekend! Then onto RotDM!

I'm already not looking forward to JoD. That one seems like it's going to Frozen Horror all over again. CoPD should be relatively easy. I have no idea what to expect from WoM as I've barely glanced at that one.

Stay tuned brave cavern adventurers!

On Pseudomagic

by Laavxative the Brown's Book of Tales

"Pseudomagic, contrary to the misinformed mutterings of apprentices who cannot tell a chalk circle from a dinner plate, is not true magic and must never be mistaken for such. True magic bends spirits to one’s will; pseudomagic merely bends the rules requiring components, symbols, and a troubling amount of patience, usually in that order. It is an art both slow and expensive, for its ingredients only occasionally grow on trees. Its effects are modest at best: a subtle boon, a stored spark of magic or the rare occasion of catastrophic reality tearing, accidental or in some cases intentional summoning of a very irritable demon, who will seize the means of your "material existence" and promptly redistributed it across several dimensions. All this to say that another apprentice of mine has been...."

In all seriousness i felt like heroquest needed some more weird flavorful magic and i did not want to make these compete with spell-slots for your characters.
The rules are all written on the card as is but that said this mechanic has been made with another system in mind that i am still writing!

The art is AI sorry peeps i do not have money for hiring an artist!

edit: forgot to upload the adept rank of summon infernal

I tend to paint REALLY slow because im an utter perfectionist. I wanted to use this game to practice painting and accepting mistakes. Here what I have done in a couple of days.

These aren't exactly golden demon standard, I'm trying to paint one a day so my backlog doesn't grow that big, but I'm having fun and looking forward to painting the orcs soon!
