All paper pieces for the game

Postby torilen » July 23rd, 2013, 12:26 pm

I hope whoever posted the pictures don't mind me pointing them out...

But this is great. Yeah, it is certainly not as nifty looking as the original game pieces, nor as nifty as some of those home-molded
pieces we've all seen on here. But this is nice and cheap, the printing is well-done, and all paper pieces could leave a lot of open
room for expanding the pieces, where as one might be limited in getting the original game pieces or home-molded pieces, as they
can be expensive at times.

Bravo for posting this and trying it out. I like it a lot.

About the furniture I agree, but the minis from paper it’s not a good idea. It’s not so expensive to buy some goblins, and some heroes. It’s better to use any mini you have and call it “mummy” or “zombie” if you don’t have the specific creature. Buy some minis “now and then” and after one or two years you will have more than enough minis for your quests.

ps: I am not talking for you torilen, but for people who are starting now. If they try a cheap solution it’s possible to stay there and they will lose the 50% of the real thing.

I would agree wholeheartedly if not for the fact that's the part I hated (better: least liked) about HeroQuest. "What, that Evil Bitch Lord Of Death gets to represent Sir Ragnar?"
It's the reason I have a few hundred miniatures in all styles and variations specifically to represent every character and monster in HQ I can possibly think of.

I'd mentioned it in the Gallery thread, but I like the idea of an all paper game for those who live in countries that don't have Hero Quest and can't afford Ebay prices and shipping. Makes me wanna go 2.5-D with the Heroes and monsters. But that would be a helluva lot of work.
