Heroes of Heroica - Campaign Map

[kaitain]

Hi All,

I haven't posted here for a while, but having just shown my latest endeavour at the Great Western Brick Show, I thought anyone who doesn't usually frequent Flickr might like to see the MOC.

"Heroes of Heroica" is a 240x112 stud campaign map, featuring 16 different routes into the forest from the 8 beach landing points, 57 dungeon entrances (these lead to random Heroica dungeons) in the forested area alone, 3 multi floored "Dark Druid" towers, 9 villages where treasure can be sold and equipment/potions bought. A goblin fortress to sneak into, lots of different heroica monsters to fight, including new snakes, scorpions, and even Dragons. The entire build process is available on my Flickr photostream, and when I've sorted through the photos from the show, I'll upload those as well. The aim is for the game to be played co-operatively like any other RPG. The extra campaign rules are still a work in progress though.

Regards

Kaitain

Edit: It should have been 16 routes off the beach, not 6

I saw this at the show, and it was definitely my favorite thing there! It is an amazing map on its own, even without the added dungeons. I would really like to know the extra campaign rules though, especially rules for dragons!

It's big and with nice details! How long did it take to finish it?

The small town is my favorite part.

Lightning makes this even greater!

Thanks.

Hi It took all my free time in September to complete, so 4-5 hrs on a work day and every weekend full time. Not something that I want to try and repeat in the future. I normally come up with an idea for a large display by Christmas and then work on it over the next 9 months, however in this case the idea finally crystallised at the end of August. It also took two large Bricklink orders for the extra 2x2 jumpers I needed. Even after I cannibalized about ten Heroica sets.

One change I plan on making is to have the buildings in the town lift off, so that players can get at their characters when playing through there.

Hey if anyone is still into heroica, I’ve got a discord going and we are all still excited about heroica! Would love to have anyone from these thread or who made these amazing builds join us. We are trying to keep it alive! https://discord.gg/qx2tVA2Bzw

Hi, it seems that especially in Heroica Necromancy is forbidden.

Please avoid bumping up old dead thread.
