Hello everyone,

I'm a HQ player myself and, together with my best mate I started to play when I was about 12 years old (I'm coming to 32 this year, so that's quite some time). Anyway, together we've expanded the game significantly, first with the expansions available in the toyshops and later with our own houserules and even gameboards en spellcards (you gotta love Photoshop and Illustrator!). We also pick up ideas from websites such as these.
The reason I joined was to share my HQ experiences with other players.

One of our houserules is that weapons can break during the fight.
We have given every type of weapon a number on a D10 that's rolled with every attack and defence roll.
0-1   damages your weapon during an attack
2      damages armor (body)
3      damages helmets
4      damages shields

Weapons can be restored in between quests at a weapon smith (we actually have 'villages' were the heroes can go 'shopping') or with special potions, but when they reach dur 0, they are lost forever!

This is probably our way of 'levelling', because you constantly have to buy new weapons.
And the more they cost, the more dur they have.

I hope that someone can use this as well!

We've also added restrictions to wich types of weapons a hero can use, but I'll come back to that in another post.

Meanwhile, good gaming and untill next time!
