About this expansion

Heroscape: Arrival of the Master is a 2007 HeroScape release for 2–4 players, with a listed play time of 60 minutes. It introduces Master Win Chiu Woo, a unique hero designed for use in the HeroScape series of games.

Master Woo was distributed free of charge at the 2007 Comic-Con, making this figure a notable promotional addition to the HeroScape range. His sculpt is identical to one of the Shaolin Monks, creating a direct visual connection between the hero and the squads he supports.

The figure is repainted in the yellow and gray colors of Aquilla, the sixth general. This distinctive color scheme gives Master Woo a clear identity while preserving the sculpt’s connection to the Shaolin Monk figures.

Within play, Master Woo improves three important qualities of Shaolin Monk squads:

  • Attack, helping the squads strike more effectively.
  • Defense, strengthening their ability to withstand attacks.
  • Mobility, improving how they move through the game.

As a unique hero, Master Woo offers a focused way to enhance Shaolin Monk squads in HeroScape. His role centers on supporting these units through improvements to their attack, defense, and mobility rather than introducing a separate squad identity.

For collectors and players alike, Heroscape: Arrival of the Master combines a Comic-Con promotional origin, an Aquilla-themed repaint, and a clear support function. It is a compact addition to the HeroScape series for games involving 2–4 players and a 60-minute play time.
