Bugs: Recent Topics Paging, Uploading Images & Preview (11 Dec 2020)
Recent Topics paging, uploading images and preview bugs require a patch which has not yet been released.
Let's Talk Heroscape
Also, once you have some stuff going, look on Heroscapers for custom units that are based of super cheap old CMG minis and you can bulk up some really really well developed and playtested (seriously, some of these are better than official stuff) new figures for really cheap. Similar thing with terrain features; don't buy the official trees, get a shit ton of stuff from anything else and use that. I have a bunch of aquarium/lizard stuff that I use for most of my minis stuff and it's awesome and frequently cheaply on sale.

Don't think so. The only change I know about is the dice color.

Now, what about the other terrain sets? Forest & Bridge looks recommended, Tundra, Castle, lava etc. Are any of these necessary or simply more tiles to use?

I would recommend sitting tight until you've taken what you have out for a spin, and then go onto Heroscapers.com and see what looks interesting. As I said before, the pages that begin with "The Book of" are very useful to find out how to play particular pieces, and what you might want to buy to augment them. But there's a lot of game in the original box, so don't feel like you need to hurry.
Some people live on Squads. My oldest boy plays nothing but squads. I personally like big baddies because there's something rewarding about special attacks like "Swallow Opponent Whole" that you don't get with squads. Some squads work well with big baddies and particular heroes, and you can see all the combinations on Heroscapers.com.

Castle Set = no gameplay effects but the columns which comprise the castle walls look good as line-of-sight blockers on maps.
Road to Forgotten Forest = movement bonus if you start your turn on the road, otherwise the trees are there to look pretty and block LOS.
Thaelank Tundra = there are optional rules for "slippery" ice but this expansion, complete, goes for $85+
Volcarren Wasteland = being on a molten lava space is almost an insta-kill, and you have a 50% chance of taking a wound if you end your turn on a lava field space. This one goes for about $50.
