Hero Engine WIKI
I spent some time over the last few weeks running through the Hero Engine wiki.
I found the wiki to be fairly good. Contains lots of information. Articles on creating worlds, importing objects from 3d studio max and scripting in Hero Script.
The one thing its lacking is a tutorial to make a small game. I learn better when I follow tutorials.
So after browsing the forums I read someones suggestion to open 2 copies of the hero engine. One with a sample game and one with your game. Then start retyping the sections you want over into your game.
This is how i learn best. I created a 3d shooter from the following book Programming a Multiplayer FPS in DirectX when I was younger. I retyped the sample code from the book and the content just stuck in my head. I don't know if it was making typos then having to trouble shoot that makes it memorable or something else.

Bookmarked. I'm about to start on the same journey as yourself. Will be buying the single seat license in a months time. In the meantime I'm messing around with 3d Modelling. Anyways, good luck, and I hope you persevere and keep this blog updated. Looking forward to learn from your experiences.
