Hey man, firstly I want to commend this amazing effort. I look forward to printing a copy of it myself and enjoying hour sof HeroQuest soon, or at least I did...see, upon looking through the book I realized one thing wrong with the quest rescue the princess:

It's incomplete, for example there isn't even an entryway (stairwell icon) on the map and after looking at the original Portuguese (Brazilian) magazine insert, found that it's missing two other quests, entirely!

I also have a section of characters (again, official Brazilian promos) that can be added to the appendix and would live to share this information with you, since, honestly, I don't know how to format the information the way you have.

Can we collaborate a bit here?


Looking forward to working with you!

I wasn't familiar with the Brazilian quests until seeing this collection, can you point me in the right direction to see the scans and translations?

You enter through the door at the bottom left I believe? No need for the spiral staircase.

I'll DM you about the rest thanks!

This is really amazing, thank you for your hard work.

Do you plan on releasing an updated version with the additional HQ2021 expansions. That would be the icing on the cake.

I cant imagine it would be a tolerable task to do as the point of this collection is consistency, and for that every one of the 2021 quests would need to be reworked to fit with the 89 lore, I've considered it myself, but would need a divorce and quit my job! It's far easier to just run with Sunday quest for additional quests.

Haha fair enough. I'm more than happy with what you've already compiled already so thanks again for it.

So who will take up the "More Than Complete Collection" book challenge next? ;)
(at least two more expansions coming out between now and August).

Then again one runs into the whole "exact copies of products actively being sold" problem, hence the "reworking" caveat above. But for non-commercial personal use? Who cares, go for it... (but that's no endorsement from me to violate the rules of this or any other forum!)

This is great work! I just started reading it. There's a small error on page 12 where you introduce the heroes. The Dwarf's mind and body points need to be flipped. You have him at 3BP and 7MP. I'll let you know if I spot any other errors, but so far this was a masterful endeavor.

Will there be attempts to add the Avalon Hill quests to this? Prophecy of Telor, Spirit Queen's Torment, Rise of the Dread Moon and Crypt of Perpetual Darkness.
Or perhaps a 2nd edition when Avalon Hill finish making Hero Quest content.

They'd need to be extensively re-worked to avoid violating the rules of this forum and drawing the ire of Hasbro's IP lawyers, so whoever has the time for that can attempt it probably...
