Hey, guys,

More than publishing the discounted price on the "Heroscape: Rising Tide - Queen Maladrix & Festering Honor Guard - Army Expansion" at $24.97 on GameNerdz, I want to ask: who owns this game (not this set, any master set or battle set, or whatever needed to play since inception)? How is it?

I have read about it, that it is a skirmish game for two, that it got out of print for a while but on 2024 got back with "Age of Annihilation" from the hand of Renegade Games.

So far, I had been kept out of it as the BGG entry says this game has "Extensive use of text - massive conversion needed to be playable", and there is no Spanish version of it (that is, I can read the minis powers, but the people I play with cannot). After reading the rule book, seems there is a "basic" version, which only takes into consideration some basic stats and there are no powers that would need translation to enjoy the game.

So, for those who have it: do you recommend it? And, more than that, is my assumption of the basic mode being language independent correct or not?

By the way, here is the link, valid for today:
