Heroscape: Viper’s Vengeance

About this expansion

Heroscape: Viper’s Vengeance is a 2005 Heroscape release for 2–4 players, with an estimated play time of 60 minutes. It features the Elite Onyx Vipers, a three-member squad of snake figures designed for use in the Heroscape series of games.

Commonly known as the EOVs, the Elite Onyx Vipers are a repaint of the Venoc Vipers squad. The original Venoc Vipers debuted the previous year in the Snipers and Vipers expansion set, part of Collection 1: Malliddon’s Prophecy.

What makes this release especially notable is its limited availability. The Elite Onyx Vipers were included only in a 2005 limited edition of the Rise of the Valkyrie master set, which was sold exclusively through Walmart.

• Figures: Three Elite Onyx Viper snake figures
• Series: Heroscape
• Original figure connection: A repaint of the Venoc Vipers
• Initial release: 2005 limited edition of Rise of the Valkyrie
• Retail availability: Walmart exclusive

The squad later became available in Wave 10, Valkrill’s Gambit: Champions of Renown, making the Elite Onyx Vipers part of a broader Heroscape release. This later inclusion gives collectors and players another way to find the distinctive repaint beyond its original limited-edition appearance.

With its recognizable snake-themed figures and unusual release history, Heroscape: Viper’s Vengeance stands out as a memorable entry connected to the Heroscape figure line. It is an appealing choice for fans interested in the game’s squads, repainted figures, and collectible expansion history.
