New DnD boardgame “Conquest of Nerath” ups the tactical warfare

[We have a full review of Conquest of Nerath here! Click to check it out!]
Last year Wizards of the Coast decided to take the Dungeons and Dragons to the board game world with Castle Ravenloft which was then followed up with Wrath of Ashardalon. Both games took the 4th edition rules as a jumping off point and stripped out a lot of the rules and left us with a system where the board would run the game and you didn’t need to have a DM. What was left was an engaging dungeon crawl and an excellent way to first introduce people to the concept of combat in DnD.
For their next board game they seem to be going in a wholly different direction, allowing you to command armies and conquer wast territories of land in the more tactically minded “Conquest of Nerath.”
