History

HeroClix is made by WizKids, who also make a number of other collectable clix-based games. Heroclix was designed to appeal to comic book fans, players of wargames, and collectors, and has proved to be even more popular than the now defunct Mage Knight.

The original HeroClix figures were all from comic books printed by Marvel Comics, but have expanded to include sets from DC Comics and from independent comics. Later expansions added new card-based mechanics to the game and Battlefield Conditions, expanding the game beyond the addition of new characters. As of December 2007, there are approximately 3,000 different Heroclix figures.

The expansions won three awards at the 2003 Origins Awards and won Game of the Year 2003 for Indy HeroClix. Tournaments are organized at comic book and hobby shops.

Gameplay

Each HeroClix figurine is modeled in roughly O scale and has five statistics associated with it:

Attack Value; Defense Value; Speed; Damage; Range;

These statistics are all printed on a dial that serves as the base for the miniature. When a piece takes "damage", its base is turned a number of "clicks" clockwise, revealing altered stats to correspond to the damage it has taken. Most damage weakens characters, although some (like the Hulk) actually get stronger when wounded, to represent a transformation or rage.

Pieces have point values representing how powerful they are. Opposing teams are restricted to a predetermined total point value, which is usually a multiple of 100.

Battles are played out on maps, overlaid with a grid of 35mm x 35mm squares. These maps come in two different sizes 3ft by 3 ft (36" by 36") or 2ft by 3 ft (36" by 24") (with the exception of the Marvel Universe Starter Map which was 13 by 13 squares) The maps used are of different locations found in a typical comic book story. The older maps were generic places but recently the maps have taken on more comic book Specific places, such as the Justice Society Museum.
