Welcome, Heroes! In this video, I’m sharing my incredible experience at GenCon 2024, where I had the chance to dive deep into the exciting return of HeroScape. For those who don’t know, HeroScape is a fantastic tabletop game originally produced by Hasbro from 2004 to 2010. Despite its short production run, the game has maintained a loyal fanbase, and I’ve recently joined the community myself, playing with my six-year-old son and loving every moment of it.
This year, HeroScape made a triumphant return to GenCon thanks to Renegade Game Studios, and I just had to be there to witness it. The moment I arrived in Indiana, the GenCon buzz was palpable, starting with a huge HeroScape banner greeting attendees at the airport. Inside the convention center, Renegade went all out with their promotion of HeroScape’s comeback, featuring massive statues of characters like Raylin and Lovietek and impressive displays of the game’s iconic terrain and figures.
At the Renegade booth, fans could see new storylines and character designs, including some sneak peeks of upcoming releases for 2025 and 2026. It was thrilling to see the future plans for HeroScape, especially new designs like the crustacean crabs and other exciting figures. Renegade’s commitment to the game’s revival was clear, and the energy at the booth was incredible. The HeroScape community is truly special, and everyone was thrilled to see the game coming back in such a big way.
One of the highlights of GenCon was participating in the HeroScape tournaments. Each day brought a different event, and I had a blast competing. From the "cheese game" on day one, where I went 4-0 with my Grimneck and Heavy Gruts, to the "uniques only" battle on day two and the epic AOA-only event on day three, the competitions were intense and full of camaraderie. The tournaments culminated in a massive championship on Saturday, where I finished ninth, just missing the top eight cut. The prizes were fantastic, with Renegade giving away master sets, battle boxes, and even original painted figures throughout the events.
It wasn’t just about the competition, though. The community spirit was strong, with new players learning the game and veterans sharing their strategies. The excitement around HeroScape’s return was contagious, and it was amazing to see so many people passionate about the game. Renegade’s vision for HeroScape’s future is ambitious, and I’m thrilled to see where it goes. The return of organized play, new expansions, and fresh designs are sure to bring even more players into the fold, and I can’t wait to see how the game evolves.
Overall, GenCon 2024 was an unforgettable experience. Being part of HeroScape’s comeback, meeting the Renegade team, and connecting with so many enthusiastic fans made it a convention to remember. If you’re a fan of HeroScape or just curious about the game, now is the perfect time to get involved. Thanks for watching, and stay tuned for more HeroScape content coming soon!

Was great to meet you there man!
Thanks! Nice to meet you too!
Yes - more info on the sneak peek, please. 👍
I got you! I’ll work on a video for the sneak peak :)
Heroscape was the first tabletop game I played with my son when it came out. We had a blast! I was excited to hear Renegade was going to start it up again.
@@plastic-nomad I’ve heard that from so many people! It’s really cool to have a game that is fun for kids and adults. I just went to our monthly tournament yesterday and my 6 year old son won a game. He was stoked!
I’d love to hear what’s actually planned. I don’t know where to see the original designs for Heroscape AoA.
This link has quite a bit about the original stuff. Which as far as I know we will be getting all of them. heroscape.fandom.com/wiki/Age_of_Annihilation:_Vanguard_Edition
Our battle was a very fun very strategic battle and overall we are ranked in the top 3 players rn which is awesome
It sure was! Came close for sure! Your Alastair definitely out did my Irene. Good build on your end!
@@boardheroes4757 thanks, that battle was the only battle ever for me that ended due to time, unfortunately in the finals i got very unlucky when attacking krug near the end of my match with Boromir
@@nicksnyder6370 it may be that I’m just a slow 😅 haha would have been fun to play out the game to see if isamu could have pulled something off. Krug is my bane, I loose to him and loose with him!
@@boardheroes4757 it was just very back and forth lol, but yeah i rolled 0 out of 6 and 0 out of 4 against krug near the end in that battle, i don't use him often but i knew he would be decent in this format
