[The Boy Sanga]

I was just trawling the net when I decided to do a search about how to play heroclix online and I found this if anyone's interested:

Looks like you can add your own characters and stuff too so it might me worth a shot - only thing in you need a direct IP adress (no searching for hosted games) but hey! If anyone's up for a game anytime ...

Being a lot of stupid. What's heroclix ? i've never see our heard about this

[cvc]

Its a game played with little collectable figures,in the heroclix part the characters are from Marvel,DC and Indy comic's so you can play as Hellbot if you want.The game plays like MageKnight.

I haven't tried the online thing and I've never played the actual game...they just look cool.  

But on second look they don't have any of my pals from Nextwave in it

They have the old Machine Man:

i meant online one ... they dont really sell them in australia ive only seen the infinity challenge (1st series) but not as big  a range of heroclix like usa

[cvc]

Who are you lookin for I have the frist 5 set of marvel,dc,indy...some characters are limited and very rare like Silver Sufer who's worth maybe $75-100 bucks.

[Venom]

do u now how much the zombie version of spidey , wolverine and hulk are worth i heard they were really rare ... I like the detail on them they look like miniture version of those expensive marvel busts

[cvc]

Those are the new ones after I stopped buying them,they are great hand painted pretty sweet.I went in a store and got a couple to see what the fuss was about the first box I opened had the sufer in it and ended up buying them by the case off the net kinda like a addiction...haha

Right, had a 'play' with the program and it looks like its the same as playing it on a board (but over the net) - i.e. there's no restrictions on movement etc. so you need to fully know the rules.

But, one thing I have found out is that you can multiplay on one computer so if you don't have the stuff you can still play with a firend on one compuper.

(In case anyone wants to know how, you host a game and, leaving the original window open, load up another window and select join game with the ip being 0).

You can also see the rules here: http://www.wizkidsgames.com/heroclix/marvel/howtoplay.asp

Well it sounds pretty cool,I will have to try it out because I love my pieces so much. Here is a pic of some of the pieces in the front I put Capt a and DocSampson for scale the rest are unique.

So, how do you get them?  Do you have to buy them?  Or do they have booster packs like with trading cards or what?

[cvc]

You have to buy the real ones,but I don't know about the on-line ones.It sounds like alot of fun.
