Information AboutDungeons And Dragons Miniatures Game |
The Dungeons & Dragons Miniatures Game (DDM) is a Collectible Skirmish Miniatures Wargame game played with pre-painted, Plastic Miniature Figure s based on characters and monsters from the '' Dungeons & Dragons '' games. Released in September of 2003 by Wizards Of The Coast , which is owned by Hasbro , DDM is composed of loosely themed sets that are released roughly every 4 months. All figures are designated as being a "common", "uncommon", or "rare" piece. This rarity determines the odds of obtaining each piece within a pre-packaged expansion pack or starter set. By making certain pieces of higher worth to be less available, DDM has a collectible component similar to collectible trading card games such as (also published by Wizards of the Coast). Unlike '' Dungeons & Dragons '', which like most Role-playing Game s has players Playing The Part of a single Character , the Dungeons & Dragons Miniatures Game is a Miniatures Wargame in which two opponents pit armies of units against each other. In order to allow rule adjudication without a Dungeon Master , the DDM rules are simplified from ''Dungeons & Dragons''' combat system, with a few additional features unique to the skirmish game. The Dungeons and Dragons Miniatures Game also currently serves as Hasbro's official line of miniature figures for the Dungeons & Dragons game. RULEBOOKS
