Are you shitting me? I had to track down a three hundred dollar boxed set on the Internet a few years ago and goddamn near lost a finger in a tangentially related incident, and now they're releasing new copies?
This is bullshit. I could spit on a toddler's lightup shoes and feel nothing when the little bastard started screaming. I hope Milton Bradley gets eaten by Games Workshop and all they find is trace mentions of Operation in the fucking lore for squats.
>>96179999 >I just got out of my time machine a week ago...
MB was eaten by Hasbro several years before the original HeroQuest came out. It's been all Hasbro, all the time, with a slight bit of GW in the past that you won't find in the new Avalon Hill branded re-release.
>>96182318 The version in OP's pic doesn't have minis for the enemies outside bosses or terrain pieces outside door standees. So there is no real reason to buy it at all.
If you do want a bunch of minis and interlocking terrain tiles the D&D adventure board games are a much better option and also happen to be much better games.

>>96182665 it's not like they don't make any, mark simonitch is still going strong. panzer north africa, the last hundred yards series, new editions of older games like vietnam 1965-1975, and I'm sure plenty of others.
>>96182728 The genre of wargame isn't dead, but Avalon Hill isn't making them, which was my point anon. feel more like Hasbro wants to turn Avalon Hill into their own mini GW focused on plastic fantasy games like Hero Quest, Talisman(which they licensed from GW) and Heroscape all getting releases in the last 2 years.
