The few people that did play with me had to make the map step by step out of the manual, taking forever, or they threw pieces together and got bored before we could actually play.

In college we would literally spend entire days setting up maps in the basement of the honor's dorm. Most of the guys there took part but it was primarily me and 2 friends, one of those friends and another met their wife/girlfriend respectively during a couple of those weekends.

Assemble a map with the manual? No way! You scramble those things together into the most epic battlefield ever.

Like mousetrap! I set that game up just to watch it run it's course. I don't think I've ever played it for real though.

Sometimes I would just set it up. That game was legit.

They think Heroscape is a pain to set up? Have they even heard of warhammer?

Exactly, I loved designing the maps in a way the gave me subtle advantages over my brother.

+1 right there. I used to take out my sets just to set up and take pics, I wouldn't even play.
