just new user. finding agreement about printing stuff off. my homemade board is on photobucket under the username: finallytherock. I never mentioned on a previous post that the walls are raised and although the rooms aint painted, i can print off all the fab stuff on this website, laminate it and bung it in the rooms(doesnt move all over the placee then)
i'll bung a few pics up in a few weeks to "Pose"
even though i have nearly everything european HQ released base set (5) 4 expansions (2 of each) i still found this a very enjoyable project.
They wont re-release it. It would be better (maybe, i dont know, the box looks nice!!)if fantasy flight games did with HQ what they did with dungeonquest (another older game) the mechanics of the game are spot on, theres a big user market oot there, but some chief exec will want to update: Boards / figs / cardstock etc and use this as a reason for "costs too high" and "figs have moved on now"
we need more of these types of games around at affordable prices to encourage interaction of the younger generations away from non 1-1 comms.(no disrespect to computer games online or otherwise - its just one side of the picture though) It also encourages reading, maths, problem solving, co-operation, FRIENDSHIP (u dont have to like the folk in your computer online team to play do you?)to name a few.
In started playing this in the 90's with my daughters (cos i wanted to play and used them as a reason to buy the game - so did my mate and the best one i ever heard from him was that as an xmas present (instead of sox etc) he asked that his present be a few games of HQ (now thats quality deviousness) - and they ALL enjoyed it.
I hope to participate in more discussions at some point
