In the realm of Valhalla, the drums of war beat louder than ever as Renegade Game Studios unveils a slew of new expansions and organized play initiatives for the revived Heroscape miniatures game. At Renegade Con, the studio unveiled a thrilling lineup that promises to elevate the game’s strategic depth and immersive experience.
Kyrie Warriors Take Flight
Soaring above the clash of summoned creatures, the winged Kyrie Warriors make their grand entrance with the “Revna’s Rebuke: Kyrie Warriors Army Expansion.” This expansion introduces five highly detailed and fully assembled heroes – Qhyrion, Xiamara, Glinerva, Mielki, and Kilkorax – each armed with unique artifacts and abilities that will reshape battlefield tactics.
Revna’s Sinister Reinforcements
Not to be outdone, the villainous Valkyrie Revna bolsters her Eisenek army with the “Revna’s Rebuke: Iron Lich Viscerot and Necrotech Wraithriders Army Expansion.” The Iron Lich Viscerot, a formidable hero, and the Necrotech Wraithriders squad bring disruptive chain grabs and vile speed-boosting injections to the fray, ensuring that those who dare stand against Revna face a force unlike any Valhalla has witnessed.
Shaping the Lands of Valhalla
The battlefields of Valhalla are as diverse as they are treacherous, and the “Lands of Valhalla Terrain Expansion” empowers players to recreate these environments. With 63 hex terrain tiles, including a new 24-hex sand tile, this expansion unlocks a plethora of map-building possibilities, allowing players to craft environments that challenge even the most seasoned warriors.
Waters of Valhalla: Tides of Battle
Water plays a pivotal role in shaping Valhalla’s landscapes, and the “Waters of Valhalla Terrain Expansion” captures this essence. Featuring over 40 new water hexes, including 3-hex water tiles and healing Wellspring Water Tiles, this expansion adds a new dimension to battlefield strategy, forcing players to adapt their tactics to the ever-changing tides of battle.
Gen Con 2024: Heroscape’s Grandest Stage
As the anticipation builds, Gen Con 2024 emerges as the grandest stage for Heroscape’s organized play events. Battle Box events will allow participants to compete using the new “Battle for the Wellspring: Battle Box,” with a Shiori miniature awaiting each participant as a reward.
Pre-made events will challenge players to bring their finest armies, with exclusive prizes like a Gen Con 2024 Heroscape T-shirt and Shiori promo figure up for grabs. But the true highlight will be the Heroscape 20th Anniversary Celebration on August 3rd, where the best of the best will clash for trophies, while random prizes like premium painted Age of Annihilation Master Sets and Shiori figures await the fortunate few.
Heroscape Battle Network: A Community Forged
Underpinning this resurgence is the upcoming Heroscape Battle Network, a comprehensive online hub designed to foster a vibrant community. From event hosting and tournament software to player profiles with achievements and cosmetic customization, this network promises to elevate the Heroscape experience.
Players can showcase their accomplishments, connect with opponents, and access a comprehensive figure database and army builder, ensuring they’re always prepared for the next battle. With player rankings and a global event calendar, the Battle Network will be the beating heart of the Heroscape community.
As Valhalla’s battlefields echo with the clash of steel and the roar of summoned creatures, Renegade Game Studios has set the stage for an epic resurgence. With these new expansions and organized play initiatives, Heroscape is poised to captivate both new and veteran players, ensuring that the legend of Valhalla’s heroes and villains will be etched into gaming history for years to come.
