Heroscape - Wave 9 Expansion in June
Tuesday May 12, 2009
A new expansion for Heroscape, one of my favorite games, is scheduled to be available late next month. The expansion, known as wave 9 since it is the ninth such expansion since Heroscape was originally published in 2004, is known as Blackmoon's Siege. It will be available in four packages: Heroes of the Moon, Braves and Brawlers, Dwarves and Repulsors, and Dividers and Defenders.According to descriptions posted at HouseMouseGames.com, a retailer dedicated to Heroscape products, the packages include the following characters:
- Heroes of the Moon: A dwarf hero (Migol Ironwill), a Native American hero (Brave Arrow of the Mohicans), a ninjutsu hero (Kumiko), a Marro overlord (Tul-Bak-Ra), and a flying hero (Atlaga).
- Braves and Brawlers: The Mohican River Tribe and the Capuan Gladiators.
- Dwarves and Repulsors: The Axegrinders of Burning Forge and The Omnicron Repulsors.
- Dividers and Defenders: The Marro Dividers and the Protectors.

Looking forward to this… Just wish they could give us a better date.
Hate to burst your bubble people but this is a HUGE LIE!!! I have contacted and received reply from Wizards of the Coast directly and they have told me there is NO new expansion (wave 9) to be released as of yet. So any pictures, previews, or other info you find or receive is completely BOGUS!
OliverSquared: I’m not sure where you’re getting your information, but I am extremely confident that Wave 9 will be out soon.
Cheers,
Erik

Not bashing or discrediting you Erik, so please, no hard feelings ok?
It just simply baffles me how more of the general public seems to know more about this supposed release than actual WotC employees!
Not a supposed release. We have it in hands.
OliverSqaured: No hard feelings at all. (And as Pascal said, Wave 9 is now available. I have a copy and it can be ordered from several online retailers.)
