Just played this for first time with some friends and we loved it! It was very light and fast. Very entertaining!

@adamshobbystuff Год назад

It’s a great game for a group to play, nice change to most games that you are working together not against each other.

@Ryecrash617 Год назад

Excellent guide. I have not played HeroQuest in decades and am thinking about buying the new one. Your video brought back so many great memories. Thank you.

@adamshobbystuff Год назад

It’s definitely a trip down memory lane playing it! It was great fun playing through the missions with my kids after doing the same 20+ years ago!

@kiralred_30k Год назад

Thanks for the video , it was very clear and helpful. I'm coming to heroquest for the first time despite being aware of it in my childhood. Very glad for the new edition.

11:00 Would the Goblin behind the bookshelf be revealed in this instance (if the player just stepped onto the first tile in the room in front of the door), since there is no line of sight?

@adamshobbystuff 18 дней назад

In the guide for the player who is Zargon it tells you to set up items only in line of sight as they move around the corridors etc, it also says when a hero opens a door to set up all items and monsters that belong in the room, line of sight done 2 different ways depending on the area.

@Dohko-Libra Год назад

At 10:00 you show that with a crossbow I cannot shoot the orc because he's behind the cupboard and the elf can't see him. But let's say one of those goblins instead was on the other side of the table, can the elf see the goblin even though the table crosses LOS between elf and goblin?

@adamshobbystuff Год назад

I may be drifting into house rule territory here but we play that you can shoot over tables etc if you can see the enemy. Cupboards/doors etc when closed fully block the models and that’s what’s spoken about in the rule book. We always play if you can see it you can shoot it.

@joshuasiao9397 2 года назад

during a round or quest how many times can you cast a spell? is it only once the whole quest or does it recharge after every encounter?

@adamshobbystuff 2 года назад

You can cast the spells only once per adventure ie - once in the dungeon you are currently exploring. Use them carefully!

@timjoseph887 2 года назад

Do monsters move based on zargons choices per turn or based only on the quest instructions ?

@adamshobbystuff 2 года назад

Based on what Zargon chooses though they can only start to activate after the players have discovered them.

@eddieharr Год назад

Can you activate the heroes in any order you want or only in clockwise order?

@adamshobbystuff Год назад

Clockwise following from whoever is Zargon, make sure you sit in the order you want the characters to go in!

@xxrobodave 6 месяцев назад

I have the original version. On each dice roll you have to choose between searching for secret doors, treasure or traps. Only rule im not too happy about. You could just enter a room and just waste two goes asking for traps then asking for treasure. Almost seems pointless. Feel this mechanic needs changing.

@adamshobbystuff 6 месяцев назад

I know what you mean, it can sometimes be annoying feeling like you’ve wasted a turn searching for none existing traps/hidden doors, it is hilarious when you are GM and people forget and then fall in a pit trap though…

@eatit8262 Год назад

Quick question. At the beginning you say that you can't move in the middle of an action, but then you continue moving after opening a door. Is that because it was, as you said opening a door was, a free action?

@adamshobbystuff Год назад

Yep spot on 👍

No, the spells are one use per adventure.

Only 1 action per turn. Spells can only be used once per quest .

@aaronpinder7071 Год назад

Does using an item card of any kind count as an action on a player's turn?

@adamshobbystuff Год назад

If the card is linked to one of the hero’s actions eg cast a spell or attack then yes, if it’s another type of card then no (at least that’s how we play it!)

@aaronpinder7071 Год назад

@@adamshobbystuff I get that. What about a healing potions or a potion that buffs attacks since there are spell counterparts?

@adamshobbystuff Год назад

We’ve always played them as they don’t count as an action as that isn’t listed in the types of action section. I have downloaded the q+a a while back and that seems to say the same thing.

@aaronpinder7071 Год назад

@@adamshobbystuff Okay sounds good. I just wanted to be sure about this aspect of the game. Thank you so much for your time and replies

@skinnyandshort7108 2 года назад

I'm confused about using a spell of healing if your character has died, in the rule book it states you can only use the spell of healing to save your life if you have not taken an action on your last turn. Does that mean you can only use the spell of healing to save your life if you only took the movement action and not attack action on your last turn?

@adamshobbystuff 2 года назад

We had the very same thing happen 2 nights ago when the elf got killed (happy to report the whole family has got into this one!) we took the quick decision that as they hadn’t cast a spell last turn they could use one as it didn’t feel right stopping it because of movement. Did have a look later on to see if there was an official clarification but couldn’t find one?

@skinnyandshort7108 2 года назад

@@adamshobbystuff Yeah it's on page 21 of the rule book about how a hero life can be saved if they are reduced to zero hit points. It does not make sense to me, as it says "If you are a spellcaster with a healing spell, and you have not already performed an action on your turn, you can be healed by casting the spell on yourself" How would I not have performed an action on my last turn unless I just chose to stand still and do nothing for some odd reason lol.

@ValiantDWC 2 года назад

@@skinnyandshort7108 An example would be, a wizard moving sets off a trap that would kill the wizard. The Wizard, having not taken an action this turn (just movement), could cast a spell to save themself. If they had taken an action this turn (for example again), then moved and set off the trap, they could not cast the saving spell as they already had taken an action.... If the wizard had had already done their turn (moved and action, or action and moved) and was later that round attacked by a monster and reduced to zero body points, they COULD cast a spell to save themself, following the RAW (rules as written) because their previous turn was over when they had moved and acted. Hope that clarifies the rule.

@skinnyandshort7108 2 года назад

@@ValiantDWC If the wizard cast a healing spell to save their life from a monster attack while it's not the wizards turn. will the wizard still get to use both actions on their next turn?

@FlameJackstar 11 месяцев назад

In my experience, when you play HeroQuest, there should always be a certain DnD flair to it. Don't show the stats of your monsters. Let them roam the dungeon, flee, get reinforcements. Roleplay their behavior and attacks. Don't just draw the cards and do what they say, build a narrative, etc.

@adamshobbystuff 11 месяцев назад

Only done none game designed levels a couple of times in between playing the base game and the expansions, drew up a map in the blank sections at the back of the manual and tracked where the monsters were, didn’t hide the stats though, that could be an interesting build.

@V081WLBlue Год назад

No body seems to know orthogonally but understand diagonally perfectly well. movement is orthogon.

@adamshobbystuff Год назад

I think for the most part orthogonally is understood as a mathematical term rather than a ‘real world’ one, I have seen a fair few smaller games using the terminology when describing movement but I think major companies go for the keep it simple approach, interestingly my lad came out with it playing chess just after he started taking further maths!
