Sjeng, you probably knew this, but I knew what you meant.v I'm a nut for puns. :D

Goblin King, I was simply listing things that are vilified. Justly, or otherwise. And the apparent need to vilify something. Society needs those other guys to put down. Create competition maybe? Or like a bully makes is feel good to be "better" than them.
this is where I've been posting my painting progress so far:

I actually liked playing this a lot as a kid, but the set up time was pretty long and it was kind of a pain to play because I could only play it in the family room because of its size, so if anybody else wanted to do anything in there, I was out of luck. I'm currently scanning and editing the tiles and cards (mine were beat up) so I have a digital version to fall back on if anything happens to the originals. I plan on scanning the mat and making a smaller version of the game so it's more table-top friendly. If anybody is interested in any of these files, let me know. I'm happy to make them public.

That's a brilliant idea!

I keep many of my files in PDF format so I can just print them off. Would you guys like these sheets or just 300dpi jpegs? I ask because my PDF files are larger than most of what I see on here. My cannon tiles are just under 20MB but they are laid out and ready for printing. The sheet containing the rubble tiles, skull tiles and elite tiles is only 3.5 though. Also, as I haven't posted much here, not sure how to go about getting them to you guys. I'm new to forums so you'll have to bear with me.

I pucked this up at a thrift shop for a couple bucks. Fun for a few games and lots of nice minis for HQ.

The battle mat is terribly low resolution, and scanning it seems like a nightmare. You might be better off finding some hex tiles online and using those.

I believe I have all of the tiles done. These links are for PDF files of the various tiles.

Now I guess I'll tackle the cards next...

G'day,

If you need a scan of the Battle Masters' mat, one was done by Malechi (fromhttps://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/HeroQuest-Boardgame/info) for the Battle Masters vassal module.

He managed to undertake this herculean effort and create a great scan of the battle mat. Great work Mal!

I'm sure if you contacted him, he would be able to assist you with this.

Actually I contacted him already. I read that he did that for you in the readme file for your module so I thought I send him a message, but he no longer had any of the files he used for that. Thanks for the suggestion though.
