In June Wizards of the Coast will release the Conquest of Nerath (MSRP $79.99), an elaborate fantasy conquest/wargame designed by Richard Baker, Mons Johnson, and Peter Lee for between 2 and 4 players, ages 12 and up.  Combining board game elements with those of miniature wargames and a setting ripped from the pages of D&D, the Conquest of Nerath features a struggle for survival between four great powers including the undead legions of the Dark Empire of Karkoth, the goblin hordes of the Iron Circle, the elves and corsairs of Vailin, and the fragile human League of Nerath.

 

The game includes a deluxe full color game board, 110 cards, a rulebook, dice, and 252 plastic pieces representing the champions and armies of Nerath, Karkoth, the Iron Circle, and Vailin.

 

Players muster armies of footsoldiers, siege engines, monsters and dragons, and then fight across oceans with fleets of warships, plunder ancient dungeons and liberate magical artifacts and awesome treasures that can tip the scales of battle
