The World of Warcraft: Shattered Kingdom Board Game expansion—from Fantasy Flight Games—has changed its name to World of Warcraft: Shadow of War. The Official Site has been launched. Expect this product on September.

You can get a look at the sneak preview of card images below.  The Shadow of War board game is currently at the printer, but advanced copies will be available at GenCon. For all the gamers that won?t be able to attend GenCon, here is the first preview of the expansion. It is the first card expansion for the best selling World of Warcraft: The Board Game. This expansion contains hundreds of new cards, both expanding the base game and introducing several innovative concepts. The new item deck rewards players with interesting trinkets and artifacts. A new quest deck puts a bounty on independent creatures, rewarding characters for defeating blue creatures. Each class deck also receives ten new powers and ten new talents, further developing the character’s arsenal of abilities and creating a richer gaming experience.

But the players are not the only ones with powerful new resources at their disposal. Each Overlord now has their own special cards that are shuffled into the event deck. If the players do not keep these minions in check, the Overlords can become even more dangerous!
