It’s fairly straight forward. To roll dice just put 1d6 to roll one dice, 2d6 to roll two, 3d6 to roll three, etc and then highlight it and click the dice button which adds the code. It will look like this: [dice]2d6[/dice] There’s a topic just for getting the hang of the dice. Submit the post to see what you’ve rolled and then edit the post to carry on with your turn.

You make it sound so easy Gold Bearer! I've gone to the PBP part of the forum and I was having a look at some of the old posts. I do kind of get the jist of how it works but I have a few questions, sorry if they are really obvious! Also I haven't played HQ in a long time so if I do join you will have to bear with me for both my knowledge of the game and how all this works! If your ok with that then I would be happy to join the quest.

Questions:

1. When you roll the dice it always generates a normal die and a combat die right? I assume if you're just moving you ignore the combat dice?

2. When moving, how many dice are you allowed to move? I've always used 2, 6 sided dice to move, I assume that's the same here?

3. I noticed on some of the posts in your previous game when someone posted an attack move, you might have defended on the same post how does that work? Can you edit posts after a player has posted?

4. How long do you have to take your turn before you miss your go? I assume you can only wait so long?

5. Finally there seems to be quite a lot of new characters that I'm not familiar with (I pretty much only know the original 4) - Where can I find a list of characters that I'm allowed to use and is it ok to just use one of the original 4?

Thanks in advance for your patience with me lol.

Hello fellow Inn dwellers, today I bought the boardgame masterpiece Heroquest off a little old lady from EBay. This is the first time I have laid eyes on this game in 20+ years. It brought back fantastic memories of me playing with my brothers until the early hours of the morning. I haven't had the privelage of playing yet, but having the satisfying knowledge that I possess Heroquest really fulfils me somewhat. Pleasure to be involved

I'll answer as much of this as I can for you.

1. When you roll the dice it always generates a normal die and a combat die right? I assume if you're just moving you ignore the combat dice?

Correct

2. When moving, how many dice are you allowed to move? I've always used 2, 6 sided dice to move, I assume that's the same here?

Gold Bearer is using a lot of custom rules in his game. It really depends on which character you decide to play. You can take a look through his list of custom characters here. Be warned, there is a lot to go through.

3. I noticed on some of the posts in your previous game when someone posted an attack move, you might have defended on the same post how does that work? Can you edit posts after a player has posted?

You can only edit your own posts. To speed up the games the attacking player rolls attack and defence at the same time.

4. How long do you have to take your turn before you miss your go? I assume you can only wait so long?

This will depend on who you are playing with but if you are offline for a few days and no one else can move until you do, then one of the other players will probably take your turn for you.

5. Finally there seems to be quite a lot of new characters that I'm not familiar with (I pretty much only know the original 4) - Where can I find a list of characters that I'm allowed to use and is it ok to just use one of the original 4?

Here's the list

Thanks in advance for your patience with me lol.

No problem and welcome to the Inn

No I hadn't. We've almost finished the first quest so there's not much point joining until it's done, you'll get one or two moves to the exit. I'll let you know when we're ready for the second quest.

[Kitch1982]

Gold Bearer - Great! Let me know when you're ready to start the next quest and I will definitely join in!

The Road Warrior - Thanks for clearing up those questions! Definitely helps me out and I'm looking forward to getting started, If I make any mistakes I'm sure you guys will point them out for me

Smacker84 - Welcome!!!

Welcome to the Inn and congratz on acquiring HQ!!

And it's not even finished yet.

Kitch, to start with there's sixteen heroes available split into four groups of four. These are based on the games that they're from (HQ, AHQ, Dungeon Quest and Dark World) and the party consists of one hero from each group. When A player loses a hero they can pick a replacement from an expanded list. If I've got enough of the heroes done and uploaded when that happens it will be four extra heroes which depend on the hero you first chose. If I haven't got them done then you can just pick freely. Anderas will get to pick his hero first and then you'll be left with a choice of four. If Anderas decides to stick with the archer or use another hero from that group then you might want to keep the sorcerer or the party won't have anyone who can heal. Apart from the spells he has he's exactly the same as the wizard, no other special rules. If fact it's my wizard who has an additional mechanic (he needed beefing up).

Mods:
Maybe these posts would be better off in my p-b-p topic when the first quest is finished. it's almost done.
