They're from the game Heroscape. I got them from Mil Sims while they had a sale. So far I've got 6 of the master sets (3 of each) and probably need at least 2 more (1 of each).

What cost did you get em from mil sims for ? I'm only finding em for around 60, which sounds like it'd get expensive fast buying 6 of them tongue.gif.

The sale price was $56. So yeah, expensive. But once you got 'em, you've got 'em for years. Just make sure you use them so you don't waste the investment.

I'm struggling to get players for regular games here. The guys I played with originally (20 odd years ago) are still around but only interested in the occasional game. There is one guy on the CBT forum who said he was interested in a game or two but he hasn't logged on for a week. I think he went to GenConOz.

Hopefully I'll find somebody who's interested in a campaign as I'm getting a few of the scenario packs (I hope the arrive soon).

I think you'll have to get some people to start playing i guess biggrin.gif.

I'm sure there's a few in canberra who'd enjoy some battletech!

Very cool looking board set up emplion. How do you work the levels with the heroscape tiles....it looks like two stacked tiles = Level 1?

Is that an island in the centre of the lake or a different depth?

Yes. Two tiles is about waist height.

I just used it as a different depth.

Bit of Threadnomancy...

I'm thinking about selling off my Heroscape hexs, but not with any great rush needed on the sale. If anybody is interested and either lives in Canberra or is coming here in the next few months (I'm specifically thinking CANCON) let me know.

Cheers

Paul.

Are you planning on attending CANCON and playing Battletech with us Paul?
emplion
No, probably not. If I get the motivation to play it's likely to be Warmachine. I'm planning to come and check it all out though. smile.gif
MisterAnderson
Oh bummer, not even the one day event? You only need to bring one clan omni mech to compete!

But yes, at any rate please come over at some stage during the weekend and introduce yourself! If not, I will send the ginger ninja after you (ie Rob Hartley).
