About the game
What you do in a play session
Heroscape: Battle for the Wellspring is your gateway to the expandable universe of 3D miniature battles! This box includes 6 awesome miniatures (pirates, a wizard, and familiars) ready for war—unpainted but highly detailed in the standard version. With 4 new scenarios and a special Wellspring water tile, you’ll build modular battlefields, maneuver tactically on hex grids, and use line of sight for precise attacks. Compatible with other Heroscape sets, it’s perfect for quick (30-60 min), strategy-packed duels with dramatic dice rolls. A great starting point for the hobby without the fuss!

Between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the scenario and players’ strategies.
Is it hard to learn?
Not at all! Rules are beginner-friendly. You’ll be commanding troops in 15 minutes.
