And got this far with the Battle Systems "Dungeon Terrain"
Posted: September 22nd, 2024, 2:22 amThe new Battle Systems Dungeon Terrain KS edition arrived, so I dug out the first HeroQuest quest and setup the first quest! Most of the 3D walls are 4" long, so I adjusted most of the HQ rooms to a 4"x4" square room. If you look at the Quest booklet, you can see how terrain blocks of much of the room, so you don't have to adhere to the room dimensions for the same gameplay. Position the enemies and terrain relative to the door the heroes will enter.
Like any full-sized 3D terrain, the 1" wide corridors are difficult to move figures in, but you can easily build the quest with larger corridors. I also used ruined walls for walls that didn't separate two roomful of monsters from each other to more easily access the miniatures.
The included 2x2 mat is darker than the HQ board and the HQ figures themselves are on the dark side. I'm not sure what components the retail edition will have, but the HQ board will use the generic basic walls and doors more than the thematic elements. OTOH, Its these thematic elements that you can further tweak the the individual rooms to make them a little more interesting.
Battle Systems is currently taking pre-orders for retail copies of their Dungeon Terrain and Maladum dungeon-themed boardgame on their website!
