A grand welcome to you!! A fellow bard, always good to have more bards I say! |_P

SO glad you joined! Take a gander at the plethora of quests in the Inn's fine library (yes, this is a sophisticated inn, we have an actual librabry, it's next to the stables).
We also have a museum that has a whole gallery of finely crafted and painted miniatures, furniture, maps etc. for use in the grand game that is HeroQuest.
We even have tables where one can play games of HQ.

I look forward to seeing more boardgame videos, or better yet: dungeon crawl game related videos!


Oh and thanks for the symbol of immortal evil. Here's one for you too.

Now I can never unsee the bunny dice... xD

Thought: THe evil shield is often known as the Walrus, when noot known as the Bunneh. Does that mean that Walruses are actually upside-down Bunnehs?

You have to see all of this in context. In gravity land it is the bunny. :)
Elsewhere I prefer KK's variant. It is more romantic.

I love how this video already received more thumbs on BGG than any other video, except for the Original commercial video. It may well surpass that too if this keeps up! Briljant xD

The Bard here, making a visit to these fine forums. I was directed here by a wily fellow in my comments on Youtube - I believe he is the originator of this topic!

I am glad you all liked my video. I speak only the truth in matter Heroquest (and all other matters of course).

You might be interested to know that the Fortress of Peril and Gravity Land are both actual scenarios I wrote up back in the day when I only had two copies of the game. All the original notes are lost to the sands of time, but memory holds out some details.

Gravity Land was a complete nightmare. The Evil Wizard player could roll to see if and where the game's centre of gravity would shift and there were special rules for 'falling' from one board to another. Basically, if the gravity shifted, everything that wasn't 'nailed down' would fall and take damage (except the elf). The dwarf had the ability to nail down any furniture he chose and came equipped with hob-nail boot that, for some reason, allowed him to refuse to fall.
The main challenge was keeping the boards in place and the only game of Gravity Land ever played ended when the blu-tac on one corner gave out and disaster followed. I believe that incident is why my Barbarian is missing his sword tip, though I cannot confirm this.

Of course, the ultimate version of Gravity Land would be played in a cube constructed of six boards with all the action happening on the inside and all the players gathered around it wondering if the game has finished... or even started yet.


Your video is now the best thing about HeroQuest!
Most amazing YouTube video I've ever experienced. If you ever visit Niagara Falls, give me a shout and I'll treat you to our all-you-can-eat meat restaurant as thanks.
