Heroscape: Road to the Forgotten Forest

It's a terrain expansion for Heroscape, but will non-Heroscape gamers be attracted by the trees?

I keep running into very nice paper models (more and more lately, especially at Papermau) that I can't download because they are in .rar format. My Mac can't seem to handle it.

Is there somewhere I can download the program without having a bunch of secret extra crap sneaking into my system along with it?

Thanks in advance,

Chris Johnson

Can't download or can't open? I used the open-source app "The unarchiver" link when I was on a Mac.

On the windows side there is the open source app 7 Zip:

7-zip.org

Opens a wide range of compression types including RARs. Free. Nothing riding piggyback. Been using it for years.
