Heroes Battle The Hellephant In Massive Darkness Expansion
June 29, 2016 by stvitusdancern
CMON (Cool Mini or Not) latest Kickstarter is blowing the doors off when it comes to backers and this should be no surprise. With that they have recently announced their latest expansion for the game to be called Heroes & Monster Set: Bloodmoon Assassins vs The Hellephant.
In this set you get three of the newly introduced Bloodmoon Assassins and what I consider the star attraction,the roaring standing on two legs beast, the Hellephant!
This is not dump brutish beast from the dark recesses of our minds, oh no, this is a wise and wicked sorcerer that is determined to ruin everyone's day.
Want to know a cool little secret? the three assassins all have cards included in the Black Plague Crossover Set so you can use them in Zombicide, The Black Plague. this game still has 7 days to go at the time of this article and is well over 2.1 million dollars!

Backed Massive Darkness as it looked like a bit of fun, and a good alternative to my copy of Zombicide: Black Plague, esp. due to the crossover content. Got to say the Hellephant is one of the most epic miniatures I have seen in a tabletop board game.
….in a crazy fun way that is, the Dragon King from Kingdom Death is probably the most epic board game miniature 😀
I wonder what’s next.
The dreaded Gazebo ? 😉
No! Not the Gazeebo!
Run away!
There are a lot of nice approaches but in the end not my type of guy. You could form several different monstrosities out of this conglomerate of styles if you took one aspect and built one entity following that part’s properties’ laws.
For instance one guy about those hanging felsh lumps weighted by rings etc. like the breats, one about those insectoid mandibles, one about those scarringly morphed elephant feet, one about those spurs protruding from stretch-scarred skin, one about the bubbly and hooked tentacle-trunk, one about that twisted elephant head etc.
Holy Heliphant Batman
I was hoping for more terrain, as I think that is fairly nice. But the characters are the real draw 🙂
