RENTON, Wash.—May 5, 2008—Wizards of the Coast, Inc., a subsidiary of Hasbro, Inc. (NYSE: HAS) today announced the upcoming release of two new expansion sets for Heroscape, its wildly popular build and battle miniatures game. Small Expansion set 8, Defenders of Kinsland, along with the Ticalla Jungle and Aquilla’s Alliance Large Expansion set will both be released June 13, 2008.

Defenders of Kinsland features 19 painted figures designed to add strength to players’ armies. Knights, ninjas, dragons, ogres, spiders, and soulborgs have all been summoned to the world of Valhalla to do battle.

Aquilla’s Alliance features 5 large painted figures and army cards while Ticalla Jungle adds additional challenges and obstacles to game play by offering detailed jungle trees and brush to provide cover for players’ units.

Players will build a battlefield, draft an army, and destroy their competition with these two new sets that continue the battle of all time. This is WotC’s first product release for the Heroscape brand since acquiring operation from Hasbro on April 1.
