The Battle Board

The HeroQuest LARP system is a high hit system with a complete set of rules for generating your characters. There are many options to choose from when creating your character such as his/her race, class as well as the various skills, spells and invocations that you will learn as your character progresses inexperience.

When the player referee calls a time out he will often perform a battleboard. During a battleboard you tell the referee how many times you were hit, what spells were cast on you and so forth and the Referee will tell you how badly injured you are. Also used to refer to the character sheet on which the Player Referee will record your injuries, power used etc. A Battleboard generator (excel Spreadsheet) can be downloaded here.

This spread sheet has been developed for Miscroft Excel, and contains the rules required to generate your character. It uses Visual Basic scripting so you must allow the Macros to run on startup.
