Renegade Heroscape: Molten Crustaceans & Tanuki Tricksters Army Expansion

Expand Your Heroscape Armies with Molten Crustaceans & Tanuki Tricksters

Renegade Game Studios presents a dual-squad expansion for Heroscape that blends volcanic presence with mischievous movement. The Molten Crustaceans offer battlefield control and a sturdy frontline presence, while the Tanuki Tricksters inject chaos and mobility, inviting players to explore fresh tactical options on every map. The synergy between these two squads encourages players to experiment with terrain and positioning, turning every encounter into a dynamic puzzle.

What you get

• 5 highly detailed, unpainted miniatures: 3 Molten Crustaceans and 2 Tanuki Tricksters
• 2 Army Cards to integrate with your existing Heroscape forces
• Full compatibility with all Heroscape Master Sets and Expansions

How this expansion shapes battles

• Tanuki Tricksters introduce agile maneuvers and unpredictable plays, increasing route options and flank opportunities
• Molten Crustaceans influence the battlefield with lava-friendly terrain dynamics and durable frontline presence
• Field multiple units together or separately for flexible, layered strategies

In practice, the two squads open a range of deployment choices. Tanuki Tricksters excel at bait-and-switch tactics, skirting around heavier units to threaten exposed flanks, while Molten Crustaceans anchor the frontline, leveraging environmental cues to shape pathing and space control.

Deployment ideas

• Combine both squads to create a flexible, layered front line that pressures from multiple angles
• Use Tanuki Tricksters to disrupt terrain strategies and create new choke points
• Exploit lava-tile effects with Molten Crustaceans to deter aggressive advances

Designed as add-on content, this expansion is ideal for players who enjoy strategic planning, terrain manipulation, and dynamic board states. Use the two squads to create combined or split forces, adapting to your opponent’s setup and terrain layout.

Quality and compatibility lie at the core of this set: the miniatures arrive fully assembled and unpainted, ready for your preferred color scheme, and the integration with existing Heroscape elements is seamless to support a variety of army-building styles.

Note that this expansion is add-on content. A Battle Box or Master Set is required for gameplay, ensuring you can anchor it to your ongoing Heroscape experience without needing additional rulebooks. This makes it a versatile upgrade for players who like to experiment with new terrain-driven strategies and unit synergies.
