Customer Reviews

Fast, easy to learn minis game.
The rules are simple and easy to learn, as in 15 minutes to read through the manual, then you're ready to play a basic game. The games go by quickly, so it's good for fitting a one-off into a busy schedule, or getting lots of games in during an evening of play.

The miniatures are big and look great (for plastic prepaints), with lots of detail and paintjobs. One fault is the clip-on bases: they don't clip on so good. Luckily, that doesn't really impact the game unless you're a nitpicker.

One suggestion: splurge on the deluxe edition. Six minis, six bases, six dice, a couple dozen cardboard counters, and a rugged cardboard, double-sided map to play on. Lots of value for the money.

Game On!

Great idea, fun game.
The game is fun to play and it seems like there is a good amount of variation. The deluxe map board is a great upgrade from the paper map. My only real complaint is that none of the minis snap into the bases. They fit well and spin well enough but they do not lock into the base making it hard to move them around the board without pulling them out completely.

Overall it is a fun game and is worth buying but be aware of the minor defect.

Awesome board game
If you get tired of sitting at the computer by yourself for hours on end but want something Warcraft related to play at the table with friends i recommend this item. Once you start collecting these figures its hard to stop!

Only quarrels i have are with the lack of support on the website letting people know when the expansions will be released, so far there are a couple hundred or so figures to use but there is word out there that Raids and Dungeons will be made for this game (WHEN is the question).

If you enjoy WoW and/or board games then buy this
