HEROSCAPE: UTGAR’S RAGE EXPANSION SET: KNIGHTS & THE SWOG RIDER
Heroscape: Utgar’s Rage Expansion Set: Knights & The Swog Rider is an exciting addition to the popular tabletop strategy game, Heroscape. This expansion introduces new factions, units, and terrain that enhance the game's strategic depth and replayability. The set focuses on the conflict between the forces of Utgar, the dark lord of war, and his enemies.
This expansion particularly emphasizes the Knights and the Swog Rider units, each bringing their unique characteristics and tactics to the battlefield:
Knights: The Knights are honorable warriors who value chivalry and bravery. They are characterized by their powerful melee attacks and high defense capabilities, making them formidable opponents. Each Knight unit has special abilities that allow them to boost their effectiveness in combat and protect their allies. In Heroscape, players can utilize Knights both for offense and defense, making strategic decisions on when to engage in battle and when to hold their ground.
Swog Rider: In contrast to the noble Knights, the Swog Rider represents a more savage aspect of Utgar’s forces. Mounted on Swog lizards, these units are fast and agile, capable of flanking opponents and executing surprise attacks. The Swog Rider's unique movement abilities, combined with their capacity for dealing rapid damage, make them essential for controlling key areas on the battlefield. They often serve as scouts or harriers, disrupting enemy lines and gathering intelligence about the opposing forces.
In addition to the new units, the expansion set includes diverse terrain pieces that allow for complex battlefield layouts.
Gameplay Mechanics: The Heroscape game mechanics maintain a rigorous balance between strategy and chance, incorporating dice rolling and various special abilities:
Turn Order and Initiative: Players take turns based on initiative, adding a layer of strategy regarding when to deploy their Knights or maneuver their Swog Riders to maximize their impact.
Special Abilities: Each unit has unique abilities that can turn the tide of battle. Knights may have abilities that allow them to bolster their defenses, while Swog Riders might have skills that enable them to evade attacks or move through terrains unhindered.
This expansion not only deepens the lore and universe of Heroscape but also creates opportunities for immersive storytelling as players pit their armies against each other in epic skirmishes. Through tactical prowess, players can explore the characteristics of the Knights and Swog Riders, developing strategies that play to the strengths of each faction. The Heroscape: Utgar’s Rage Expansion Set: Knights & The Swog Rider is a must-have for fans looking to expand their gameplay experience, offering both new and seasoned players greater engagement and excitement on the battlefield.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
