One of my grade school friends brought home an .00 gem in the form of World of Warcraft the Board Game. For WoW Online players, WoW:TBG is basically another way to enjoy the WoW gaming experience offline (like we haven’t had enough!).
So my friends have transformed ourselves into 5 year olds once more and we’ve been trying to figure out how this game is actually played. As WoW Online players, we’ve kinda gotten the gist of the whole thing as a lot of the references from lore to mechanics stem from the game. A game lasts roughly four to five hours.
In the meantime, what I’ve done was to post photos instead after the jump!
From what I gather, there are two possible ways to win the game – the first is to go the PvE route and slay either Nefarian, Kel ‘ Thuzad or Lord Kazaak. If after 30 turns a boss is not slain, players get to duke it out on PvP.
It is quite interesting to note how the Horde start at the town of Brill and not Undercity while the Alliance start at Southshore. The game map is composed of the upper part of Kalimdor only which means that the Horde capital of Orgrimaar isn’t even seen.
You may proceed here to read a quick overview of the game as well as a review.
