On the Table: Mech Way for Minions!

Fans of ‘League of Legends’ will soon be able to bring Yordle mech-warriors to the tabletop with ‘Mechs vs. Minions’, a cooperative tower defense style board game set in the same universe as the hugely popular Multiplayer Online Battle Arena.

From the product description:

Mechs vs. Minions is a cooperative tabletop campaign set in the world of Runeterra where players take on the roles of four intrepid Yordles: Corki, Tristana, Heimerdinger, and Ziggs.
