Hi! I just discovered this forum while asking others for their impressions on AotP. I've only had the opportunity for a single one on one battle but wanted to ask others their impressions. If anyone would like to contribute, could you answer the following questions:
What did you like about the game?
What didn't you like about the game?
Would you buy the expansions?
Are you going to make your own terrain?
How does it compare to HeroScape (where applicable)?
Have you tried using the HeroScape creatures with it?

How does it compare to HeroScape? All figure movement rules are the same - moving up to height, stopping in water, extra movement to climb out of water, stopping when landing on a glyph. The flying rules and adjacency rules are the same. Melee combat rules are the same. Ranged combat is the same Line of sight, Clear line of sight, and Clear sight are all the same. Differences are that Heroscape uses Order Markers and Heroscape does not have the Spell cards In Heroscape, all the armies start on the board (2 exceptions out of 200 official units) In Heroscape, at the beginning of a turn, each players places Order Markers on the Army cards it plans to use during the next round. Only those will activate. All markers may be on a single army card. The order markers are 1-3 plus an X. The armies will activate in that order with X being a dummy that is not used. I have not personally used Heroscape units with AotP, but many have. Army costs look to be pretty much in the ballpark. See the www.heroscapers.com/community/forumdisplay.php?f=155 forum on Heroscapers.com to see what some Heroscape players have done to mix the games together.

Ran a game against my 13yo cousin, he played Chandra and I played Jace.
He thought it was funny as hell when I said, "Oh, you hit my guy? BOUNCE!"
"You're getting to close to my Planeswalker... BOUNCE!"
"You got close to me again... MIND CONTROL!"
He definitely wants to play again when we hang out next week.
