Heroscape Heroscape is a fully 3D tactical miniatures game released by Hasbro in 2004, but discontinued in 2010. It has been revived and rethemed as their Magic: the Gathering battle board game, Arena of the Planeswalkers.

Hover Boards, Bikes & Beams
This is the first of hopefully many future tech roundups where I share some upcoming advanced technologies and how they relate to our lives in reality and fiction.
