Heroes of Dominaria

Happy Tuesday MTG peeps,

Some very cool news for MTG fans coming out of the Game Manufacturers Association (GAMA) 2018 annual trade show being held at the Peppermill Resort, Reno, Nevada this week.  WizKids revealed yesterday a themed board game - Magic: The Gathering Heroes of Dominaria Board Game, to be released later this year.  Specifically, there are to be two separate releases, a standard game in August, 2018, followed by a premium version in September, 2018. 


In this game, designed for two to four players, ages 14 and up, will have participants take the roles of powerful heroes traveling the ancient lands of Dominaria such as Llanowar, Urborg, and Keld to o build sites, rediscover lost artifacts, and confront the sinister Cabal in order to gain the resources needed to save the multiverse before rival Heroes do.  Just like the iconic card game, players draw mana from the world to power abilities and recruit heroes to aid in quests. 


The Standard set is to include 28 miniature tokens spanning well known creature types from Magic’s 25-year history such as Angels, Soldiers, Goblins, Zombies, Bears, Dragons, Dinosaurs, and more.  The highly detailed miniature, standing approximately 55 millimeters tall will include translucent parts some some of the tokens.


The standard version will (tentatively) include a game board, 4 player mats, 16 hero tokens, 24 site tokens, 32 leyline tokens, 150 mana tokens, 1 turn tracker token, 20 cabal tokens, 15 artifact tokens, 20 site mana tokens, 50 card Dominaria deck, 45 card quest deck, 10 public quest tiles, 20 card artifact deck, rulebook, and two-part organizational tray.  

Anticipated MSRP is $59.99.  The Premium Edition of this game would (again tentativley) include 4 exclusive pre-painted miniatures with an anticipated MSRP of $79.99.
