The strategies are a bit different - in Heroscape, there are no orders, and a lot of your plans depend on rolling well. In Summoner Wars, you have spells and characters and everything, but you have to balance the cost to play things, whereas in Dungeon Command, you can play creatures up to a given level with no need to decide whether to discard them to be able to play more stuff.<br /><br />Plus, cowering isn't really like anything in Heroscape or Summoner Wars.<br /><br />You could probably use your Heroscape figures in this if you're willing to make cards for them. I found that the Order cards actually seemed to vary the game (or add strategy) a bit more than the actual characters did.Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14011225292134198772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829360209113689355.post-82002442263909099902012-09-05T17:06:21.416-07:002012-09-05T17:06:21.416-07:00Thanks for the review, I've been checking this...Thanks for the review, I've been checking this game out recently. From the way you describe it, the cards and combat sound very similar to Hero Academy. I'm always looking to draw my family into skirmish games. I have Heroscape and Summoner Wars already. Would this one have too much overlap with those? Could I use my Heroscape figs (esp the D&D ones) with this game?Todd C Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14836986024245066643noreply@blogger.com
