World of Warcraft Minis Deluxe Edition Hits Shelves
It’s been a month since the release of WoW Minis. As a group this was our first dive into the world of miniature games, and we’re absolutely loving this initial release. It’s fast, it’s fun, each of the nearly 70 characters is very different from the rest – which is saying something – and best of all its expandable enough to add our own inventive custom game modes.
This week Upper Deck has introduced the game with new World of Warcraft Miniatures Deluxe Starter Set which has good stuff for both the WoW Mini newcomer and veteran alike.
It sports everything you & a friend need to get playing, including six characters (3 from two factions), with two guaranteed rares or epics for both faction. The set also ships with one of three new maps on board stock: Ashenvale, Tanaris, or Winterspring, which is a definite upgrade from the flimsy board of the standard starter set. So much so that we feel slightly … slighted. This is also the best way to get your hands on the new Monster Faction UBases.
Alternatively if you’re short on cash and only looking for new maps, then you can also print the Ashenvale Map yourself, as Upper Deck’s publicity department was nice enough to post its map kit on their website. You sacrifice the level of quality of the Deluxe Starer’s new board stock, but hey – free is free.
All in all this seems that this new starter set should be the best way to introduce yourself to the game if you haven’t already. Fans like us will find enough good things in it to add to both their miniature collection, and the enough UBases and maps to make the Deluxe Set more than worth the while.
The official product information can be found on the Upper Deck Website, here.
