Conquest of Nerath is the latest board game from Wizards of the Coast - but it's not your typical D&D dungeon crawling fare as it compares to games like RISK or Axis & Allies. I wasn't interested in the game at all when I'd first heard about it, yet after mounting curiosity and an ever-widening strategic wargame hole in my soul, that changed. I'm very pleased with the outcome because it's fun game with simple rules yet provides a good strategy experience and in a short amount of time too.
