I was wondering how come "Advanced HeroQuest" and "Advanced HeroQuest: Terror In The Dark" and "HeroQuest 25th Anniversary" are not part of this site/forum.
I mean there is literally everything about HeroQuest here but nothing for those other 3 HeroQuest games.
Is there a specific reason? Cause Id like to be updated for those HeroQuest games too and I think its worth adding em.

Also are there any other big sites/forums for HeroQuest where I could look? (ik reddit and an italian one but im not italian lol)

If the HQ 25th Ann. is what I think you're referencing - the people who made that
had major copyright/trademark issues, lied to kickstarter backers, and got kicked off KS because of it.
They did release in Spain...but I don't know where exactly they are allowed to sell. And honestly,
because of the way they portrayed themselves and treated those following them, I
personally would have nothing to do with them.

If you're looking for good expansions and redos - just look here at the Inn. There is more than enough
material. Several people have done their own HQ remakes - Daedalus, Anderas, Phoenix, and goblin king
have done quite a bit of work, if I remember....among many others.

Thanatos sells miniatures. I don't know how his prices are compared to others - but his work is spot on.
Two companies - Heroic Maps and Inked Adventures - can be found on DriveThruRPG.com, and they make
boards and tiles that, really, are made with HQ specifically in mind.

I personally have turned it into an entire role playing game with rules, several supplements, and a game
world that it is set within.

I'm sure that when HeroQuest 25th Anniversary is released in 20 years that there will be some discussion of it.

Im aware of that subforum but I think like there should be the rulesbook, the tiles, etc for download here at the in like with the expansions.

Yes thats what Im talking about, I think that at least there should be a topic here at the Inn where we post updates, thats all id want from HQ25 here. just a topic for updates.

After you tire of getting up to date here check out the latest at BGG.

It has been perpetually 6 months away from release for at least five years. boardgamegeek is probably your best bet for up to date information and discussion, who he's being sued by now, who else has walked away with a box of miscast resin models, etc. I believe that playtesting started properly at some point this year. It's beyond a joke.

Advanced HeroQuest" and Advanced HeroQuest: Terror In The Dark don't have downloadable content here at the Inn because Games Workshop published those games. They would let loose the lawyers and threaten to shut us down--as has been done over so many other sites--if we threatened their IP protection by distributing and modifying their content.
