Indiana Jones Heroscape?

Anyone else think this would be really cool? Hasbro already released a Marvel edition of Heroscape, I think Indy would work really well. There could be a lot of cool landscape pieces( Imagine "Build your own Temple!" ), artifacts, and the glyphs could be traps. Plus the characters (i.e Indy) could have a lot of cool abilities.

Would be cool but in all reality I think the Heroscape line is dead. They are not making additional lines for the normal line and I was really hoping they would add on to the Marvel line. Now I could be wrong because I often am but hey it still would be cool.


my only opinion on this would be that Heroscape is a game built on armies and that works for Marvel as it has a lot of leading characters and not jut one. I mean..if you played....wouldn't you ALWAYS want to be Indiana Jones?

You're better off with HeroClix or Wizards of the Coast because I don't think those lines are dead. Of course, they're more expensive and not readily available at most retail stores like Heroscape was.

I used to get WotC SW miniatures. It's too expensive though and the newest series look shoddy in comparison to the first waves. I've also eyed the HaloClix but fought the temptation to buy any. I would not get these. It's a very expensive hobby guys, especially if you're not a hardcore gamer.

No it's not dead actually, they just released a whole new master set, there's going to be a jungle package coming out soon, and they have lots of new figures in store. As for what you said about armies, well, there could be squads of natives/Hovitos or Germans/Russians/other soldiers. If you give all of them good abilities and statistics then people will want to use them. Besides, it'd be one man against an army (even though Indy is a one-man army )
