Wizkids’ Dungeons & Dragons Onslaught is a miniatures game that offers players a highly enjoyable and engaging experience.

The game is scenario-based and allows players to collect treasure, level up, and bring powerful abilities to bear using dice rolls, upgrade cards, and the new combat dial card system to keep track of the action. The combat system is familiar to those […]

Just a few tweaks to the rules, new scenarios, updated artwork, 3D sculpts, and highly detailed miniatures. […]

Assault of the Giants – A New D&D Board Game by Wizkids

Michael Long — Tue, 07 Feb 2017 22:08:30 +0000

This is a pretty cool game that utilizes a lot of different game mechanics that I think flowed together very well. I liked that the Giants theme of the game remains true to the Forgotten Realms, and the current D&D Giants season. Also, that the use of […]
