World of Warcraft Miniatures Game

This article or section contains information relating to gameplay taken from the World of Warcraft Miniatures Game.

The World of Warcraft Miniatures Game is a collectible miniatures game from Upper Deck Entertainment, the creators of the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game. It was released November 11, 2008. A deluxe edition was released December 9, 2008. It took two years of development to be finished.

Players will use 40mm scale figures and terrain pieces to simulate battles in all types of settings and scenarios based on the Warcraft setting. Gameplay can be one-on-one, a party vs. party, or one or a party vs. an individual or group of monsters in Alliance, Horde, and Monster factions.

The Raid on Onyxia raid set was planned to allow you to play solo or cooperatively against either a player-controlled Onyxia or an automated, rule-based version of the black dragon. The raid set was designed and presented on some gaming expos in 2008, but was never released to the market.

Blizzard has annouced they will not renew their contract with UDE, Souls of Vengence Deluxe starter, Starter, and boosters have been canceled along with Onyxia raid set
