Hi everybody,
I just wanted to know what you're thinking about my remastered work of Heroquest.
So if you can answer to the sondage or make some comment to make my project better...
Thanks to all !

See my work on heroquest-reloaded.blogspot.com
New presentation of the blog and also english version under construction (some elements are already translated)

I loved the remade maps and tiles for kellars keep, I am rather interested in seeing what you come up with for the witchlord quests.

On the negative side, I didn't like the 3D board pieces and I don't like the new monster cards (simply because I use so many different monsters now, they wouldn't all have cards/info sheets, I prefer just to refer to a table of monster stats).

I reckon you shouldn't remaster, you should just make original quest books, you seem to have the imagination to come up with something special.

Thanks for your comments Ethica.

First, I have tested the 3D board pieces and it gives more interest, new gameplay too, like lower and upper levels. (bonus or malus in fight), for example. The pillars/columns are very interested too because it gives some relief to the board. So I will certainely keep them. :oops:

I'm agree with you for the variety of monsters... But I think that the cards are interesting. For example, in some quests, you need to determinate a random monster. It's more fun to pick randomly a card instead of using a random table. But I will also make a stats sheet too.

For the official books, it's very important to me to remaster all of them. I know that it can be frustrated because most of HQ's players have already done these official quests many times... But I will do that and also the part 2, the Book 2 of each, like those you have seen for kellar's keep. So each official remastered quest book will have a book 2 which will be a new way to abord all of them.

I gave it a "I don't know anything about your work".
While that's not really true (Anyone spending more than a day at the inn should know you've been working hard on this forever), I haven't paid much attention due to it being in French. Sorry.

Pretty much the same here, though I haven't voted yet. If I manage to find the time, I will give it a second look to base a valid opinion on. I like the 3D board as such, though it's artistic value doesn't live up to the standard of your 2D art.

Isn't this the one that got grav and HQF into legal issues with GW?
If I had the time I'd be all over it and localize it into English, but I simply don't.
Translating ghan's Champion of the Empire pretty much burned me out as far as translation of other people's works is concerned. Don't get me wrong - it was worth it and it illuminated a path where I wanted to go when I was sprawling all over the place with my own HQ plans.
HQ Remaster could do the same for other people.
