> I'm not interested in running games like movies or novels, but I'm interested in the HeroQuest system to see if it can be used for the higher detailed level of gaming people like. I'm always looking for ways to use a rule system, not just for what it was designed for.

That sounds like a very difficult task, after all the book does say:

"Although there's no right or wrong way to play the game, a certain story-based logic does underlie the entire system. Where traditional roleplaying games simulate an imaginary reality, HeroQuest emulates the techniques of fictional storytelling." HeroQuest(2009) p7

You will need to mine pretty deep to remove the underlying story-based logic.
