World of Warcraft: The Boardgame

[painkiller]

As the title says, has anyone played this game yet?

I've just placed an order at Neutral Grounds for this, so I'll be doing a review of this game in the near future (I hope).

@rnold, one of our Moderators and my friend has been interested in this game for a long time now.  I think he is looking to buy this game too.  Do you have an idea how much Neutral Grounds is selling this game?

[Rolf]

One of my friends has been playing it.  He's heavily into MMO games and this is what he said - he likes WoW because it doesn't have the "grind" that other MMOs (particularly the Korean ones) have, but he thinks that EVE Online is still far better than WoW.
We played Eve Online thru trial accounts last year and we loved it.  A trial account is good for 14 days; give it a shot

my fault, should have included 'The Boardgame' after WoW as that was what I was talking about. Sorry.

@brel, NG sells this for Php 5,200 but is currently out of stock so I had to order from them.  Only reason I wasn't able to get this earlier was coz I opted to get Descent first.

[Brel]

Howl, World Of Warcraft also has a boardgame version.  I'll post it in our Games Database later.

Painkiller are you going to the AEGIS Open Meet this Sat.?

On a similar note, has anyone here played the Warcraft pen-and-paper RPG? ^_^

[Sexy Bro]

>_< isnt the warcraft rpg just d20 (all alike imo)? anyway, if anyone does have this, do post your opinions about it. i recently just cancelled my world of warcraft subscription (...i have about 3 days left in my account before it no longer becomes active) and just want something to remember the game by or maybe get a fix whenever i feel the urge to raid.

...lfm ubrs, need mage and tank, full on damned rogues~~~ >_< guild run tonight, where the heck are the other priests!?!

[Brel]

How much does this boardgame cost in Neutral Grounds Painkiller?

[painkiller]

sorry, was out of town.

NG sells it at Php 5,200.

[Brel]

sorry, was out of town.

NG sells it at Php 5,200.

Oops I've already asked about the price pala sorry hehe.  Needed it kasi I posted the info in the Games Database.  Anyway, I'm constantly anticipating your review on the game as many people seems to be interested in this title.  Just want to know how the game is received by a fellow Filipino.  

Sayang, maybe next time u could come in the AEGIS Open Meet.  It is every last Saturday of the month.  I want to meet the person who suggested the name of our website.  hehe  :p

[Rolf]

sorry my bad

I didn't know that there was a pen & paper rpg either...

[Brel]

hehe its ok Howl I did not know about the pen-and-paper RPG version as well.  

[Kim]

SO, does anyone here already have this board game?  I want to try it out (and maybe eventually buy myself one if it's really good).

[Rolf]

well I have some friends who own the board game, they said it's ok but it's too much like the LAN version.  Turtling beats rushing, at least the way they play it - two of our friends who always turtle are usually the winners, despite everyone rush-ganging up on them.

The pieces are all heavy cardboard from what I remember - I didn't play but I saw the parts.  No miniatures.  The game can take 2-3 hours daw.

[Kim]

Two to three hours.  Much like a game of Warhammer.  Maybe you can borrow that and demo it on the next Open Meet, Howl?
