I have found this news from the Wizards of the Coast web site. I am very sad about this.

By Wizards of the Coast

After a thorough evaluation, we have made the decision to discontinue our Heroscape line in order to focus our efforts on our core brands. While this decision means that we will no longer be developing new content for the game, existing Heroscape products will still remain available from Wizards of the Coast and sold in the hobby game channel while supplies last.

The next and final Heroscape expansion, Moltenclaw’s Invasion, will be released on November 16, 2010. This final assortment, which is playable with the Heroscape D&D Master Set, will include the best and most iconic creatures from the worlds of Dungeons & Dragons. Orcs, bugbears, dragons and frost giants will all come together to join the greatest battle of all time.

Bandai and Capcom Entertainment, Inc. have announced that a Resident Evil deck building game is scheduled for release on November 19, 2010. The price will be $29.99.

The game will have you choose one of the characters from Resident Evil and start you with basic items and weapons. As the game progresses you will build your arsenal with other weapons, ammo, items, and action cards to defeat ” the infected “ You will have to build your deck well in order to survive.

The Resident Evil DBG will consist of 250 cards and hundreds of different scenarios for different play every time. It will also have three different game modes you can play.

* Story mode is the main version of the game. Players will race against each other to claim the best stuff first to help them escape.

* Mercenary mode is similar but rewards you for going on the offensive. You have to defeat as many zombies as you can in a limited time. This mode can be played with teams.

* Versus mode removes ” the infected ” from the game. The human characters are against each other in a battle for survival. Players must try to survive while defeating others.

I have OCD ( Obsessive – Compulsive Disorder ) but not real extreme. At least I don’t think I do. If you ask my friends they might say I go a little overboard which inspired this blog post.

When I buy a new game I want it to last a long time and try to take good care of it. I show the games to friends and family and try to get them to play. While we are playing the game I watch and cringe at how my game gets treated. That is where the OCD kicks in!

If hands aren’t CLEAN and getting cards dirty I get upset. I just bought this game and already its getting messed up! The table we are playing on better be clean and not sticky! It doesn’t have to be real clean just nothing that will mess up the game. Pieces to the game should be treated with some respect to the owner of it. I mean DON”T and I repeat DON”T put the pieces in your mouth or near it. This comes up more than you might think, especially with cards. I just spent my own money on this game so don’t treat it like crap.

I let others know when it is getting bad for me. Most of the time they can tell by the look on my face. I try to keep from screaming when it gets really bad. I do think I’m getting better though. People put up with me and continue to play so all is good.
