Warcraft and Frozen Throne Expansion






Publisher: Fantasy Flight Games
Links:http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/warcraft.html

Price: Warcraft-RM195 Frozen Throne165

Beat your friends at your favourite game in real life so that you can mock them straight at their faces, instead of drumming the keyboard for swears and curses. If you have been a fan of Warcraft but somehow don't quite enjoy the fast-paced-mouse-clicking-shortcutkey-smashing-action, then the boardgame version will be a welcomed respite. Components and artwork as equally gorgeous as the original game, quality non-withlacking.

The god Blue Moon has deserted the world and plunged it into chaos. Blue Moon City is in ruins and its people have fallen into open war. Multiple factions seek to appease Blue Moon and hasten his return by currying the favor of the three dragons of elemental power. In the ruins of the great city, the ingenious Hoax seek to dominate through their mechanical inventions, while deep below ground, the fiery Vulca wield the molten force of the heart of the world. On the craggy mountaintops, the birdlike Flit watch the struggle unblinkingly, waiting for the right moment to make their move. And in the secret heart of the forest, the beautiful but wild Mimix sharpen their spears.
